Percentages in Dashboard widgets
What
In Gainsight PX, provide a dashboard widget that provides the ability to create a % based metric - ex. users who used Feature A / users who used Feature B.
It would also be helpful to change any existing widget into a % - ex. weekly active users / all users, users who used Feature A / all active users, etc.
Why
Percentages normalize data and trends. Raw counts are often vanity metrics that feel good but don’t show trends as count change (ex. weekly active users).
