What we’re really excited about though is our recent addition to deskonline.cloud

Highcharts is now available as an app in your deskonline.cloud space!
A well curated set of charts is a great way to create a visual story of your project or business. This shows progress across KPI’s and planned business outcomes in a quick and easy to understand format; a really valuable tool for efficient and fact based decision making forums.
