KPIs or Key Performance Indicators are a modern instrument to make a system (business, for example) work effectively. KPIs show how successful the business is, or how professional the employee is. It works with the help of measurable values, that are intended to show the success of achieving your strategic goals. KPIs are *measurable* indicators that you should track, calculate, analyze, and represent.

If you read this article, it means that you want to find or build an app to help you in all operations above. But before we list the top dashboard templates for tracking KPIs, it’s essential to understand *how exactly to choose* a set of indicators that boost the growth of a business. For KPIs to be useful, they should be relevant to a business. That is crucial not only for entrepreneurs who try to improve their businesses but also for the developers of the software for tracking KPIs. Why? 

Developers need to be aware of what instruments they should include in the app so the users will be able to use KPI’s easily and effectively. Since there are much more than a handful of articles and approaches on how to find the right performance indicators, what KPIs to choose, how to track them, development of a quality web application can be complicated. 

However, from our point of view, the most challenging part of such an app is building a dashboard that displays all necessary KPIs on a single screen. We have explored the Internet, analyzed different types of tools to represent KPIs, found great dashboards, and make two lists: one consists of the charts and instruments you should definitely include in your future app, the other is top dashboards we found that contain elements from the first top. Let’s start from the first list.  

*Enjoy reading!*

##**What Instruments Do We Need to Build an Effective Dashboard for KPIs?**

##Absolute numerical values and percentage (in absolute amount)

With the help of percentage, you can make it more informative by adding the comparison of KPI with the previous periods.

###**Non-linear chart**

One of the core charts.

###**Progress bars**

Can be confused with a horizontal bar chart. The main difference: a horizontal bar chart is used to compare the values in several categories, while a progress bar is supposed to show the progress in a single category.
