Dashboards: View performance insights

Understanding your contact center at the most granular level is key to improving performance and lowering costs. You can use the Amazon Connect visual dashboards to understand the performance of your contact center.

Amazon Connect dashboards show real-time and historical metrics information and insights about your contact center performance.

  • Real-time dashboards are updated every 15 seconds

  • You can select historical data up to 3 months in the past.

You can customize the dashboards (for example, re-size and re-arrange the visuals), specify a custom time range and custom benchmark comparison time range for each dashboard, and select filters for data to include for each report. You can also download the entire data set or individual widgets as CSV, download the dashboard as a PDF, save your own version to your saved dashboards, share with individuals, and publish to the entire instance.

Use the required filters

All dashboards have the following required filters:

  1. Time range: You can select a real-time time range within the "Time range: Today" option and choose a trailing window of time. For additional windows, select "Custom." You can select historical time ranges by altering your Time range to "Day," "Week," or "Month."

  2. "Compare to" benchmark time range: You can customize a comparison time period to benchmark your Time range selection against, such as an exact week over week comparison called "Compare to: Prior week same day, time range, and time." This benchmark time range powers the benchmarking in all of the widgets in the dashboard. Your benchmark time range must be a date in the past compared to your time range.

Each dashboard has additional filters specific to that feature. For example, the following image of the Contact Lens conversational analytics dashboard shows the available filters. Contact category is specific to Contact Lens.
