CUSTOMIZABLE LAYOUT AND POSITIONING
You can rearrange and resize dashboard components to suit your workflow. Need more space for charts? Move them around with ease. Each element is fully customizable, allowing you to tailor the dashboard for your needs.

INTERACTIVE CHARTS
Creating charts is a breeze with Mapline’s drag-and-drop interface. Simply select fields, drag them into the chart’s x-axis or y-axis, and watch the data transform into a visual representation. Segment data by criteria like customer status to dive deeper into your numbers. Plus, you can adjust the chart’s styling, including the colors and formatting, to make the data even easier to interpret.

CHARTS + REPORTS WITH SEGMENTATION
Charts and reports allow you to break down your data into more granular insights, like sales by region or team. By segmenting your data, you can easily compare and analyze different aspects of your business. These reports are interactive, so you can drill down into the data by right-clicking on any section to view more detailed information

USER-SPECIFIC DASHBOARDS
Views are incredibly powerful in Mapline. You can create user-based views, which ensure that each user sees only the data that pertains to them. For example, a user can see only the customers assigned to them, simplifying data management across multiple team members.
