Drill-Down & Cyclic Groups Preference

This is not a technical question, I’m just trying to gauge my perception of a what I personally refer to as a Qlikview design best practice.

I rarely use Drill-Down & Cyclic Groups.  They’re only used if the end-user is somewhat familiar with QV and available screen real estate demands it.  Otherwise, it’s list boxes.  My perception is that these groups are not very intuitive and I like to show needed metrics in one snapshot.  They’re not bad, by any means.  Just not my preference.

Hope this doesn’t feel like a waste of time to anyone.  If just a few people would post their preference, I would greatly appreciate it. A simple DDCG = Yes, or DDCG = No, is perfect  (DDCG = Drill Down Cyclic Groups).  Maybe I’m way out in left field and need to design differently moving forward.

Thanks!

Thank you, dathu.qv.  I appreciate your opinion!

I want to add/clarify - My question relates to end-users only.  I.e., those who are not regular QV users.  Internal use...is a different story.

Ok Jason,..

Generally you can add Help tab on the dashboard to elaborate how to use Qlikview dashboard. Then new users will know some nice features. Other wise users always compare with excel file (mostly)

I tried to create a poll, but a 'Place' has to be selected, of which none are available to select.  I agree, a poll would be ideal.
