Dashboard exports breaking layout when sent as PDF or Excel? Report Studio is built to fix that, without leaving Sisense
Summary: Ido Darnell discusses the challenges of exporting dashboards to PDFs, where layouts often break, and introduces Report Studio as a solution. This tool, integrated with Sisense, offers a design canvas tailored for creating static reports with precise page layouts. Features include consistent widget sizing, brand profiles, scheduled data distribution, and advanced administrative functions. A live demonstration is offered on September 17.
A dashboard is built for exploring data on screen. The moment it gets exported as a PDF or scheduled report, it's being asked to do a different job: land in someone's inbox as a finished, readable document. Tables get cut off mid-column. Widgets overflow. Data that made sense on screen arrives resized or hard to read. None of that is a flaw in the dashboard, it was never built to be a static page.
Report Studio is a report design and delivery layer built natively inside Sisense. It gives you a freeform canvas with real page boundaries, so you design the report as its own asset instead of exporting a dashboard and hoping for the best.
What's included:
A design canvas with page-based layouts, not screen-based ones
Every widget (tables, charts, KPI tiles) exports exactly as positioned and sized, no clipped columns, no resized widgets
Saved brand profiles (logo, colors, fonts) applied in one click
Report Studio Deliver, for scheduled distribution on current data, plus on-demand export
Full job history for every send
More advanced administrative capabilities
