Out-of-the-box (OOTB) dashboards are a collection of the most commonly used reports that provide performance glimpses and display Key Performance Indicators (KPI) metrics in Gladly. While pre-built, out-of-the-box reports like the Agent Duration and Conversation Timestamps report help answer specific questions, the OOTB dashboards collect the most valuable and frequently used reports and metrics without downloading, stitching, and manipulating CSVs to gain insight.
Benefits of OOTB dashboards
Provides visually rich data to help contact center managers scan critical metrics and feel informed.
Get a sense of your contact center performance swiftly.
While Gladly provides rich data tables and some single-metric visual reports, they require additional work requiring the combination of various reports to arrive at a high-level visual view. OOTB dashboards reduce the need for manual data manipulation.
List OOTB dashboards
There are currently two OOTB dashboards available. Each dashboard was meticulously researched and developed to help managers gain insight into the state of their contact center.
Daily Trends
Designed for contact center managers and decision-makers, it provides insight into how the entire contact center is doing for the day — or a range of days — and how the team performs against your goals and metrics for decision-making purposes. You can view insights like:
Channel Mix
Conversation Handle Time or Close Time
Most used Topics
SLA performance
Top 10 Topics Applied
A complete list of tiles for the Daily Trends dashboard is available here.
Coaching Dashboard
Provide people managers easy access to individual Agent-level metrics for coaching and opportunity reasons. Containing a range of filters — including Date, Date Granularity, Name, Email, and Team — managers can quickly discuss performance and opportunities for insights like:
Logged In and Active Time
Availability
Number of Contacts
Contacts missed by Channel
A complete list of report tiles for the Coaching Dashboard is available here.
Topics Dashboard

Count
FCR%
Avg Conversation Handle Time
Overall Topics
A complete list of report tiles for the Topic Dashboard is available here.

Dashboard report tiles
Report tiles are single — visually rich — reports found in a dashboard. Depending on the report, data in each report tile is presented in various ways, from line graphs and pie charts to simple numeric metrics.
Data presented in the dashboard report tiles are also available in OOTB reports, though sometimes, additional manipulation is needed to get to the same data. For example, Unique Customers is a metric in the Conversation Summary report. Contact Transferred can also be found in the Agent Summary report.
Interact with a report tile
You can manipulate tiles to hide or expose specific data points. Tile manipulation options depend on the type of visualization used for a report tile. You can:
Hover over tile elements (e.g., bar, line, etc.) to see more data.
In the Contacts Missed by Channel report tile, clicking a Channel at the bottom allows you to hide specific Channels from the bar graph.
In the Channel Wait Time report tile, you can click a Channel(s) to hide a Channel’s data from the graph if you want to focus on viewing data for specific Channels.
Feel free to interact with every tile to learn how to manipulate the data visually.
Dashboard tiles are not customizable
You can’t rename tiles, add new tiles, or reorganize the tiles in an OOTB dashboard.
Dashboard filters
Each dashboard has its own set of filters to allow you to modify or limit data in the dashboard.
Do keep in mind the following when applying filers to a dashboard:
Filters in each dashboard apply globally, meaning you cannot set filters for a particular report tile.
You cannot change the types of filters available, but we may introduce others in the future.
You must click the refresh button to load new data after updating filters.
Daily Trends Dashboard filters
Filter by:
Date Range – View dashboard data by date and access multiple options to view data by varying ranges. The default filter is in the last seven days.
Inbox – View dashboard data by Inbox. Each tile presents a tile's data based on the Inbox filter.
Channel – View dashboard data based on the Channel filter. Each tile presents a tile's data based on the Channel filter.
Coaching Dashboard filters

Inbox Name - Last Closed – Lists the name of the Inbox a Conversation closed with the applied Topic.
Assigned Agent Name - Last Closed – List the name of an Agent assigned to the Conversation when the Conversation was closed with the applied Topic.

Sidekick Dashboard filters
Last Closed At Date – View Conversations that were closed during a specific time window. For example, the filter to view closed conversations within the last 7 days.
Sidekick Conversation Channel – View dashboard data based on the Channel in which Sidekick assisted the Customer.
Sidekick Inbox – View dashboard data based on the Inbox to which a Conversation was routed. Because you can configure Sidekick to exclude Conversations that are routed to specific Inboxes, filtering out these Inboxes from reporting will result in more accurate information about the proportion of eligible Conversations that Sidekick is Assisting and Resolving.
Time Anchors for each report tile
Each report tile in a dashboard uses a particular (and sometimes multiple) Time Anchors.
Let’s use Unique Customers in the Daily Trends dashboard as an example. The Unique Customers report tile displays the count of unique Customers with Conversations last closed within a given time frame based on your date filter.
Unique Customers use Conversation Last Closed At as the Time Anchor. This means this only includes Customers who had their Conversations closed within the timeframe set on the dashboard's filter. If the filter is set to in the last 7 days, Conversations created during this range but haven’t yet been closed are also not included.
