We've been using the multi KPI object to create a management dashboard which shows many different KPI at first glance (see "current solution" attached). As the multi-KPI object will be deprecated, I'm forced to look for a new solution. Options for my use case I've so far detected are the following:
A) Use the normal KPI object (see "approach single KPIs")
Advantage: high flexibility in formatting every single KPI
Disadvantage: very very bad performance, since every KPI is a separate object (With that approach, I end up with around 300 objects on 1 sheet, taking around a minute to load --> no-go for the users
B) Use the "Text" object from the dashboard bundle by inserting a table (see "approach text object")
Advantage: Lightning fast, loads below 1 sec (which is also a proof that my data model is not the issue in this case)
Disadvantage: Poor formatting possibilities for the table itself, table columns are detached from the "visualization grid", I cannot add a bar chart which is properly aligned to the KPIs included in the table.
Does anybody have a good idea beside A) and B) how I could reach a similar design that I currently have (see "current status")?
Looking forward to your creative solution approaches.
Thanks, Sam
P.S.: I still have a bit the feeling that Qlik is rather weak when it comes to creating such extensive management dashboards, showing KPIs originating from many different apps (which is however a strong business need, since managers don't want to check many different apps on a regular basis, but get a fast overview of how things are going) in the different org units. But I'm of course fully open to get convinced by the opposite😉
