Databox

Overview

Databox addresses the challenge of data fragmentation by pulling metrics from various cloud tools into one centralized location. It is designed for businesses that need a high-level view of their performance without logging into multiple separate accounts. The platform emphasizes “mobile-first” monitoring, allowing users to check critical KPIs from their phones.

Key Features

Databoards

Databoards are customizable dashboards where users can visualize their data. Users can choose from hundreds of pre-built templates or build their own from scratch using a drag-and-drop editor.

Metric Consolidation

The platform integrates with marketing, sales, and financial tools effectively. It allows users to view data from Google Analytics, HubSpot, Facebook Ads, and Salesforce side-by-side to correlate performance across different channels.

Build Your Own Calculations

Databox allows users to combine data from different sources to create calculated metrics. For example, a user can combine ad spend from Facebook and Google to see a total “Customer Acquisition Cost.”

Alerts & Scorecards

Users can set alerts to be notified when performance trends change significantly. Daily, weekly, or monthly scorecards can be delivered via email, Slack, or mobile push notifications to keep the team aligned.
