Efficiency Dashboards

New custom dashboards will answer key operational reporting questions, like:

  • Where are we "stuck" (based on fields, e.g. content type)?
  • How much content have we produced for X audience or channel?

Resource Management

Marketers will have better insight into their teams' workload to plan work more efficiently.​
