Your report is the gateway to insights and actionable information. Using the right charts means that your audience interprets data the right way and gets the right insights without any confusion. We broke them down into groups so you can identify the one that is most relevant depending on what you are trying to demonstrate.
You want to ask yourself a few questions before picking visualizations. These are examples that help you know why you might need a specific chart. Are you trying to compare values or analyze trends? Do you want to demonstrate the composition of a process or understand how your data is distributed? Do you want to highlight the relationship between several data subsets?
Charts are grouped by intentions and the type of analysis you want to run.
We broke them down in multiple groups to help you decide which ones are the most relevant to your needs.
