Bullet charts are a sub-type of bar chart that is a lot easier to read.They evaluate a highlighted measure (the bullet) in comparison to a targeted measure (the target). Using a bullet chart, you can track your progress toward a goal or compare your performance to a reference line.

Our IBCS-certified Bullet chart could assist you in integrating many KPI charts into one visual to present a comprehensive summary. If you have a target goal that must be met at regular intervals, a bullet chart will help you visualize your goal, the current benchmark, and the prior one in a single visual. They are best utilized for comparisons and are frequently used to compare forecasts to actual numbers.

Key Feature Highlights:
