Real-time KPI Dashboard for SaaS Startup
Interactive KPI dashboard for a growing SaaS company, providing real-time metrics on user engagement, revenue tracking, and product performance across web and mobile platforms.
1. Case Study Overview:
Project title: Real-time KPI Dashboard for SaaS Startup
Client/brand name: TechFlow (Not real name)
Industry/sector: SaaS/Technology
Project duration: 4 weeks
Key skills used: React, D3.js, Firebase, Google Analytics API, SQL
2. The Challenge:
TechFlow was experiencing rapid user growth but struggled with fragmented analytics across multiple tools. They couldn’t get a unified view of user behavior, leading to delayed feature releases and high churn rates. Manual reporting took days, hindering quick decision-making.
Business impact: High churn cost them 30% of annual recurring revenue, and delayed insights slowed product development by weeks.
3. Your Approach:
We began with stakeholder interviews to identify critical KPIs and pain points. Then, I designed a data architecture integrating their Firebase analytics, payment data, and user feedback systems. Using React and D3.js, I built an interactive dashboard with real-time updates via WebSockets.
Strategy focused on user-centric design, ensuring non-technical team members could easily interpret the data. I implemented automated alerting for KPI thresholds and predictive models for churn risk.
🧠 Example: “After analyzing their user journey data, I identified key drop-off points and created custom event tracking to monitor conversion funnels.”
4. The Solution:
Delivered a comprehensive dashboard featuring:
- Real-time user engagement metrics
- Revenue and churn analytics
- Feature usage heatmaps
- Predictive churn scoring
- Automated weekly performance reports
Technologies: React, D3.js, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Firebase.
5. The Results:
- Improved user retention by 25%
- Reduced time-to-insight from days to minutes
- Increased feature adoption by 40%
- Identified and fixed critical UX issues before major releases
- Boosted team productivity with automated reporting
6. Client Testimonial:
“Chima’s dashboard gave us the visibility we needed to scale effectively. It’s like having a crystal ball for our business.” — CEO, TechFlow
7. Key Takeaways:
This project deepened my expertise in real-time data visualization and predictive analytics. I learned the value of iterative design in dashboard development and how to balance technical complexity with user experience.
Moving forward, We’ll incorporate more machine learning models for advanced predictions in similar projects.
