DataSalon has announced the launch of a new Publisher Dashboard service, building dashboards tailored specifically for scholarly publishers.
The new Publisher Dashboard service offers publisher-specific dashboards which cover the complete customer picture – not just of institutional usage and denials data, but also of author submissions, journal subs, book sales, and individual customer and member contacts. It also provides full integration with GRID or Ringgold as standard.
Potential financial benefits to publishers include:
- targeting new prospects where institutions have high author submissions, access denials, or pay per view purchases
- cross-referring journal and book purchases to identify new subject/package sales opportunities
- reporting ‘at risk’ customers with high cost per download or declining usage
- driving article submissions by identifying relevant authors at subscribing institutions
A range of functionality is supported, including charts, maps and tables; Venn diagrams and cross-tabs; a ‘family tree’ view to visualise hierarchical relationships. Dashboards are fully interactive, allowing users to drill down to explore row-level detail for customers. There are no limits on the number of different dashboards which can be configured, or on the number of staff using the system.
The system supports data transfer standards such as SUSHI for COUNTER reports, and the ScholarOne API for author submissions data.
Full details (including screen shots) can be found on the Datasalon website.
