Become Visionary with Smarter Dashboards

Smartsheet’s AI tools

The role of Business Intelligence (BI) dashboards has evolved significantly. Data may well be the key to success but the real game-changer is how you visualise and act on it. Thought leaders in the field are exploring new trends and innovations that are shaping the future of BI dashboards. Enter Smarter Dashboards, a premium app by Smarter Business Processes that transforms the way you interact with your Smartsheet data. Packed with advanced features and customisation options, this tool enables businesses to save time, collaborate effectively, and make smarter decisions—all in real time.

The power of a dashboard

While traditional dashboards have been a staple of BI, they are no longer sufficient in the rapidly changing business environment. Thought leaders are advocating for more dynamic and interactive data visualization tools that can adapt to the evolving needs of organizations.

Beyond static charts and graphs, Smarter Dashboards offers real-time data updates, live data editing directly in the dashboard, and the ability to drill down into data for deeper insights. This level of interactivity empowers users to explore data in ways that were previously unimaginable. Smarter Dashboards turns traditional dashboards into highly customisable, user-friendly tools that empower decision-making at every level.

Smarter Dashboards isn’t just an enhancement of Smartsheet’s default dashboard—it’s a major leap forward. Here’s what sets it apart:

1. Access and create dashboards with ease

One of the significant challenges in the adoption of BI tools is the lack of data literacy among employees. The need to foster a culture of data literacy is paramount. Whether you’re building a new dashboard from scratch or enhancing an existing one, Smarter Dashboards’ intuitive and incredibly easy to use platform has you covered. Built-in help and click-through guides ensure a smooth experience, even for first-time users.

You can even jump start your Business Intelligence game with our powerful AI Dashboard Generator, demonstrated in this short video.

2. Fully customisable views

With Smarter Dashboards, you can create multiple views with widgets tailored to different needs as different audiences need to see data from many perspectives. 

We love it when things are simple so we’ve made it easy to name and organise these views.

3. Wide variety of widgets

You can show your data through a wide variety of widgets including:

  • Column and Bar Charts
  • Line Charts
  • Pie and Doughnut Charts
  • Single cell driven metrics
  • Single Tables
  • Relational Tables
  • Forms

It’s easy to drag and drop widgets to rearrange them as needed, ensuring the layout works for you. Every widget is fully configurable, set the data source, labels, colour scheme and even on click actions, such as applying filters or navigating to another view.

4. Interactive features

Smarter Dashboards brings your data to life and enables collaborative working on other levels:

Filters: By applying filters on the left hand pane, you can update all the widgets in a view, instantly.  Giving you options to view by Location, Employee, last month, last quarter the list is endless, giving you unparalleled control, especially when presenting.

Inline editing: Update data in the original Smartsheet directly in the dashboard. Data edits are permitted in Table widgets either inline editing or via a pop up editing pane.  Users can update the source files even if they shared to them.  Although you do get to manage this in the User Management area.

Adding Attachments: we have recently enhanced Smarter Dashboards to include row attachments, add or access existing attachments stored in the underlying sheet.

At Mentions: the comments pane is now also available in our table widgets, allowing users of the dashboard to continue to use the great @mention feature of Smartsheet to make comments and have Smartsheet notify your collaborators.

5. Secure access control

A User management console allows you to allocate who is able to view or edit the data and even lets you assign what data is able to be viewed by each user.  Giving you full control over who sees what when logging in.  Perfect for sharing with all stakeholders and not just internal employees.  Smarter Dashboards puts you in control.

Why teams love Smarter Dashboards

One of the standout features of Smarter Dashboards is its ability to save time. Teams no longer need to spend hours manually compiling reports; instead, they can focus on strategic tasks and delivering results.

One user shared:

“Smarter Dashboards is a must-have solution for any organisation looking to optimise their Smartsheet data. Its time-saving capabilities, enhanced accuracy, and powerful data visualisation tools have completely transformed the way our team collaborates and makes decisions.”

Imagine presenting at a meeting where the dashboard isn’t just a static screen but a tool you can interact with. Need to tweak a chart, filter data, or update information on the fly? Look at attached files, upload new files, tag people within the data for automatic notifications.  All whilst presenting! With Smarter Dashboards, it’s all possible.

Whether you’re monitoring KPIs, analysing team performance, or preparing a project review, this tool ensures your data is actionable, current, and visually compelling.
