Too many selection possibilities

hobanwashburne — Thu, 19 Mar 2015 13:21:42 GMT

We have two classes of users at my facility: Researchers/Business Analysts and Guided Users.

The documents created for the Guided User class (generally salespeople) have limited selection criteria available and 'canned reports' types of charts. Those dashboards are fairly straightforward to design.

However, someone doing general research needs to be able to approach the data from many different angles. The problem becomes providing too many possible selections results in an entire page of list boxes. I have begun to uses grouped multi-boxes, but even those get rather unwieldy.

Does anyone know of an example or layout having several possible selection criteria that maintains usability?

I have attached an example of one of our research type documents "filter" pages.

A bit of a swerve here, but how about giving QlikSense [initially the freebie desktop] to the Researchers/Business Analysts with suitable aptitude.

And give them permission to data QVD's, or QVW's to do binary loads from ?
