Metric Cards with Percentage Change Badges

Hey Noloco team,

Looking at analytics dashboards everywhere (see attached image), alot of them show metrics/kpis with coloured percentage badges that i would love to have in Noloco.

What im after:

  • Big number display (like “1.39K”)
  • Percentage change badges that auto-color themselves:
    • Green for positive (+147%, +53%)
    • Red for negative (-10.7%)
  • Comparison period text underneath

Two ways this could work:

  1. Let us pick what to compare against - choose a field/date range to calculate the % difference automatically
  2. Just display a pre-calculated percentage - if we’ve already worked out the % difference in Airtable/sheets, just show it with the right colours
  3. Display a number compared to previous period - If its not a percentage maybe we want to look at (+45 leads) compared to last month we can also implement that too.

Not sure how hard this feature would be but when working with KPIs This would make my clients experience 100% more seamless, hopefully others agree!

This would be an amazing feature, which is becoming more and more relevant!

Just bumping this up again - put together a loom of an example of this we created using custom code within Noloco Noloco Feature Request - Comparison Metrics | Loom

@darragh I’m sure the team is busy with the new features you’ve been releasing the past couple of months but I’d love to know if this is coming in the near future?:eyes::eyes::eyes:

There’s also another thread in the community requesting this →Numeric chart option with trend compared over certain timeframe

Have the same issue right now, as you @fluxomate.
Have a client who would like to have these metrics and we can’t use Noloco for that, so I’m currently looking at klipfolio.com unfortunately

Looks pretty good, thanks for sharing!

Here for this one, I’ve asked for something similar, possibly less dev work to achieve than the full example above but anything would be good. Yours would be the ideal solution no doubt.

I asked for a dynamic formula field that we add to the front end.

Quick very basic example: Each time the user changed the filter fields the formula result would update.

Dynamic Date Filter - Dynamic Mortgage Type Filter

Statistic1 | Statistic2 | Statistic formula Result [=(Statistic1 - Statistic2)/Statistic1]

£1000 | £100 | 10%

I have so many ways to use this but again, this could be a lot of dev work, each stat box would need an id I guess to let the formula work :slight_smile:

I’ve also asked for an AI front end that would achieve much of the above I think. AI Assistant for reporting

Yep that would also be massive! Currently, we do that using custom code (reading chart values and then updating them) but it’s a massive pain to set up for each chart…
