Performance Dashboard ROI Calculator from Visual Mining

September 12, 2012

Visual Mining offers a (free) calculator to determine the value of a visual dashboard—see the Business Dashboard ROI Calculator at their site. Naturally, their focus is on their own software, NetCharts Performance Dashboards, but you may be able to extrapolate. The tool’s description reads:

“Reporting and analysis for your business shouldn’t be an arduous undertaking. But many businesses spend 10, 20 or even 40 hours per month assembling financial reports. With performance management dashboards, you don’t have to involve IT or consultants to customize reports, and you don’t need to spend endless hours copying, pasting and assembling data out of spreadsheets or report writers.”

Well, yes, that’s a performance dashboard for you. To use the calculator, you will enter the business’ revenue and an estimate of how many hours currently spent each month producing reports. Then plug in how much you might spend on the software, and the calculator will spit out estimated returns.

Visual Mining has been building data visualization software since 1997. Despite its old-school roots, the company prides itself on keeping up with technology, from supporting the latest browsers and devices to employing advanced chart-rendering methods. Their NetCharts is Web-based, and they also produce tools for developers to build customized, integratable dashboards. The company is headquartered in Rockville, Maryland.
