Analytics for Nextcloud

Business intelligence and reporting within Nextcloud.

Turn operational data into a shared basis for decisions. Analytics helps business teams connect data sources, monitor key performance indicators, and publish interactive reports and management dashboards in their existing Nextcloud environment.

From recurring departmental reports to executive overviews, Analytics brings data preparation, visualization, and collaboration into one workflow. Your Analytics datasets and reports are hosted in your Nextcloud instance, under your organization's control.

Business value

• Give teams a shared view of performance. Bring reports together in panoramas: multi-page dashboards combining charts, tables, text, and images.
• Reduce recurring reporting work. Reuse datasets across reports and schedule data loads instead of repeating manual imports.
• Explore the drivers behind the numbers. Filter, drill down, aggregate, and calculate measures using visual configuration and live previews.
• Keep reporting close to collaboration. Share reports and panoramas with Nextcloud users and groups, or reach external audiences through share links.
• Retain control of your reporting environment. Run Analytics within Nextcloud and choose which data sources to connect and which reports to share.
