How to visualize e-commerce data


Hey!

I'm looking for ideas/tools to visualize various e-commerce data points I'm gathering.

Stuff to monitor and present nicely would be sales figures, signups, visitors, time between order creation and sending out the products and some more.

I'm willing to create connections between the various systems (non-standard mostly), so I'm kind of looking for a unified data storage with visualization options.

Something like Excel but nicer. ;-)

Thanks!

That phrase reminded me of elasticsearch & kibana[0], though that may be an overkill (the elastic stack is a lot of work).

Also seems like datadog has a solution in the space[1], haven't used it though.
