Manually keeping track of performance and searching for insights has become difficult for many users, and it's fostered new expectations - to be able to do more with analytics - including making it faster and easier to keep on top of changes or opportunities.

Our Head of Product Design and Creative Director, Tony Prysten, has worked in brand, design and advertising roles over the course of his career. Bringing his wealth of experience to Yellowfin, he now shapes the creative and UX experience of our product. Here he shares his thoughts on how design flexibility improves the dashboard experience.
For this blog post, I’m going to take a step back and not go into data visualization best practices. Rather, I’m going to explore what you can do with your data before arriving at a final visualization – what I like to call “re-expressing” your data. Accordingly, we are going to look at the topic of transforming your data.
