Compliment to the new dashboards in v14.7!

I miss one very important option for me and my users. At least 80% of the dashboards are usually downloaded and sent in excel format. PDF is only used for a small percentage. I would really appreciate if you could add this option, too.

 

Thanks,

Claudia

At our company (300 seats) no one ever prints out dashboards, neither staff nor management. Typically dashboards are viewed in the interface and often downloaded by the end user in Excel for further "processing". This processing includes adding other data sources for internal reporting or creating external client reporting. IF a dashboard is auto-emailed it is mostly sent in Excel. Sometimes they are sent in HTML but never in PDF.

 

So 1) We need that Excel option restored and 2) we live in a screen based world not a paper based one. The Page based presentation, while not insurmountable, adds little value.

Had a similar thought, or at the very least give us the option of downloading a csv of the tabled data.

I noticed this too. There is no way to select anything other than HTML or PDF. Would be great to have Excel back again as a download option.
