Track Our Startup: Dashboard Videos + We’re Innovating!

Dasheroo kicks dashboard buttWe’ve been in a fight with the current release for about 3 weeks now and we promise we WILL kick it’s butt. It’s filled with things like scrolling insights, proper currency display, exporting a dashboard to Google Drive and additional chart displays for your Zapier insights as well as our Push API. There’s just a ton to QA, hang in there Court (our awesome QA manager) and a ton to get done (Alex, Andrew, James, Josh, you guys rock!). We’re hoping to get this out this week but can’t promise.

We are looking ahead to our next release which will include roles and permissions so those folks who need to manage users and what they have access to can do it with ease and a future Sendgrid integration.

Innovation!

Under the headline of “we’re still innovating” James has been working on a side project that involves a super-fast database which processes a TON of data in a fraction of the time we’re doing it now (which is still awesomely fast.) Why do we need this? To scale to the limitless amount of data and ideas that our users have for a dashboard and we’ll need to figure it out now. The sooner the better! We’re super excited about this project.

Track Our Startup: New Dashboards + New Data Sources Coming!

As you know we’ve had a ton going on this quarter already and it’s only the first week of February! We announced our Push API that went live last week. Check out our posts, they’re awesome and great for our growth and scale.

What’s Up Next?

  • Alerts – We’re so close getting this important feature over the finish line! You’ll get an alert when a threshold you set is reached!
  • Hubspot – This is a big one for us, we love the folks over at Hubspot. You’ll be able to get all of your important KPIs from Hubspot right in your Dasheroo dashboards.
  • Sendgrid – If you use Sendgrid for your transactional emails, we’ll provide you how they’re performing and how they’re being delivered.
  • Facebook Ads & Google Adwords – We’re revisiting our pay-for-performance partners to enhance those dashboards. More to come as we research.
  • Mixpanel – We’re in research mode here but we love this integration. We are avid users of Mixpanel so we want to make sure we nail it for everyone who uses this awesome product to track users around your site.

Isn’t that enough? No, we know it’s not. The list never ends. If you want to see insights from data sources you use regularly make sure you get them on the list.

Oh and I’m off the grid till next week (in Burma!) but on the grid enough that you’ll hear from me. Speaking of, how is it that “Burmese” people live in “Myanmar”? Should they not live in Burma? I sure think so;-)

Track Our Startup: Notifications, Sendgrid, Dash Hits the Chrome Store + More!

We had some great meetings this past week even though it was holiday week. We also had some great times for the New Year and I can assure you at Dasheroo we’re really looking forward to it.

On the “You can’t see it yet” front…

James, our co-founder and VP of Engineering, has been heads down on a notification system which is awesome. This system is for you to use in the app and for us internally to use behind the scenes (we get notified if sh*t goes awry.) Notifications can happen for a number of reasons and in a number of ways. For instance you might want to know about a bunch of things happening with your data. You’ll be able to see that in a running notification stream. Additionally you can find out what’s happening via an email or mobile push. Internally this is a huge platform dev project for us to trace bugs. You’ll soon have an “inbox” of messages color coded for read vs. unread. You’ll also see what new product announcements we have. Look for this in late January/Early February. (Isn’t that right around the corner?)

Our stellar Product Managers Dharini and Nivi have been investigating Sendgrid and Mandrill as a possible integrations while the release that is currently in progress contains enhancements to Facebook, Instagram, Facebook Ads, GA and Stripe. And while all of that’s happening, we’re going to be talking to Mixpanel and Insightly as two potential integrations. Finally we’re working on a Hubspot integration as we speak. Whew, really?

Be on the lookout for an awesome Salesforce.com integration we’ll talk about very soon. YoDasheroo on the Chrome Storeu can now see your dashboards in your Salesforce.com account on your mobile device. And yes Infusionsoft is on the way.

We’re knee deep in mapping all of the things we need to work on in a timeframe over the course of the next year, a 5 year revenue plan and nailing pricing. We launched with what we think is great pricing to attract a ton of users, but now it’s time to really get a feel for revenue progress. And don’t worry, there will always be a freemium product.

Chrome Store Reviews Needed!

Dasheroo is now on the Chrome Store and we’d love to get more ratings. If you’re a Dasheroo user can you go here and take 10 seconds to give us a review? We really appreciate it!
