Metrics Dashboard Design

45 minDuring product iterations

Format: Design a concise metrics dashboard for your product.

Design Constraint: You can only include 5-7 metrics β€” any more and no one will look at it.

Selection Framework:

  • 1 North Star Metric
  • 2 Growth metrics (new users, active users)
  • 2 Health metrics (error rate, load speed)
  • 1 Revenue metric (if you have paid features)

Sketch it out: Use paper or a simple tool to draw the dashboard layout, with the most important number displayed largest.
