Welcome to Labelf Analytics! This guide is your starting point to learn how you can use the power of visual data to understand your business better, make smarter decisions and improve your results.
What is Labelf Analytics?
Labelf Analytics is a tool that helps you turn raw data into clear and easy-to-understand images, known as dashboards and charts. Imagine you have a big pile of paper full of numbers - it's hard to see what they mean, right? Labelf Analytics helps you organize and present those numbers in a way that makes it easy to see patterns, trends, and key insights.
Why should I use Labelf Analytics?
Imagine you work at a company that sells mobile subscriptions. Instead of looking at long lists of numbers, with Labelf Analytics you can create a dashboard that:
Shows how many new customers you got last month, compared to the month before.
Shows which subscription types are most popular.
Shows if customer satisfaction is increasing or decreasing.
Shows where in the country you have the most customers.
With this information, you can quickly see what's working well, what needs improvement, and make decisions that help your business grow.
Labelf Analytics is useful for:
Get quick answers: Instead of sifting through rows of data, you can see the answers right in a chart.
See trends and patterns: Discover things you might otherwise have missed.
Make better decisions: Use data-driven insights instead of gut feelings.
Share information: Show your results to colleagues and managers in a simple and clear way.
Improve operations: Use the information to make improvements and reach your goals.
Basic Concepts
Before we dive into the details, let's go over some basic concepts that are good to know:
Dashboard: A dashboard is like a page in a folder, or a bulletin board. It contains a collection of charts and other information that gives you an overview of a particular area. You can have dashboards for different purposes, such as one for sales, one for customer service, and one for marketing.
Chart: A chart is an image that shows data in a visual way. There are many different types of charts, such as bar charts, line charts and pie charts. Each type of chart is good at showing different types of information.
Dataset: A dataset is a collection of data that you use to create your charts and dashboards. Think of it as a table of information, such as a list of all your customers, all your products, or all your customer calls.
Metric: A metric is something you can count or measure. It's what you want to show in your charts. Examples of metrics are:
Number of customers
Sales in dollars
Average call duration
Number of incorrect invoices
Customer satisfaction
Dimension: A dimension is a way of dividing or grouping your metrics. It's like sorting the information into different categories. Examples of dimensions are:
Product type
Customer segment
Date
Geographical area
Type of query (for customer support interactions)
Example:
Imagine you want to create a chart showing how many calls the customer service department has received each day over the past week.
Dataset: Your data is a list of all customer calls, with information on date, time, subject, etc.
Chart Type: You choose a line chart, as it's good at showing how something changes over time.
Metric: You choose “Number of calls”.
Dimension: You choose “Date”.
The result will be a line chart showing a line for each day, and the height of the line shows how many calls were received that day.
