PostgreSQL Reporting And Visualization Tools

Harness the full potential of your PostgreSQL databases with powerful BI and data analysis tools from dbForge.

Ensure the effectiveness of your PostgreSQL databases and create new strategies for improving them with the help of our data report generation solutions that allow you to quickly organize information in convenient, fully customizable visualizations. We offer many useful tools, for example, Query Profiler that help you analyse your data. The following tools help you understand data better and share this understanding with others in an easily readable format:

Visual Report Designer
Visual Chart Designer
Visual Pivot Designer
Exporting Data Reports to Various Formats

Postgresql data visualization reports that you can generate with Report Builder.

Data Reporting Workflow

Firstly, the Data Report wizard will allow you to create a report template that's fitted exactly to your requirements - be it a static or a data-bound report.

After that, you can fill the report with actual data and visualize data relations with the Report Designer, Chart Designer, and pivot table functionality.

When a report is created, you can save it to a file of a required format that you can choose from a list of most widely-used formats.

PostgreSQL reporting tools

The Data Report wizard is a tool to quickly start you off with building a base PostgreSQL report structure specific to your current needs.

The Report Designer provides a variety of elements (or controls) and editing tools to make a PostgreSQL report comprehensive both on the level of the amount of included data and visual appearance.

The Chart Designer allows you to represent data dependencies and pivot information of tables as charts with a high degree of customization.

The Pivot Table creation capabilities are a quick way to rearrange data in specific ways you may require while working with database visualization

PostgreSQL Report Builder

The Report Builder allows you to create three main types of reports:

A static report is not connected to actual data and can contain visual elements like text, pictures, table of contents, shapes, and others.

A data-aware report is bound to data and, as such, can visualize it with the help of tables, charts, gauges, and interactive elements.

A master-detail report is the most inclusive and informative of these types. A detail table must be provided for a master-detail report to work.

The Report Builder also allows you to save your finished reports in one of many file formats supported by the tool.

PostgreSQL Reporting Tools

Data Report Wizard

The data report wizard allows you to quickly build different types of reports and configure their settings on the go.

It streamlines the process of creating data reports, thus greatly reducing the time you spend on customizing them while still keeping them easily readable, visually appealing, and as in-depth as possible.

Report Designer

A powerful report designer toolset allows you to create visually appealing and easily understandable data reports.

Convey the information as clearly as possible with text, images, tables, charts, pivot grids, and other elements.

Powerful data binding and mapping capabilities provide ways to display data relations in full detail.

Chart Designer

With the help of the Chart Designer, you can view the pivot data of any table as charts, thus visualizing and comparing data dependencies.

The charts can be easily built by accessing the Chart Designer from the target pivot table's document toolbar.

In the Chart Designer, you can choose which data points to include in the chart and modify the chart's options and appearance according to your needs.

Pivot Tables

After selecting all necessary data by executing a query and navigating to the output, you can quickly create a pivot table.

Once the empty pivot table template is created, you can drag the required fields into the corresponding parts of this table to fill it with data.

The pivot table can be easily modified at any point of time by rearranging its fields as needed, deleting them, or adding new ones.

Report Builder

Creating a Static Report

The report designer allows you to create a blank report and fill it with static text, images, custom shapes, and many more elements.

The contents of the report can be then extensively styled and modified to improve its readability and aesthetic cohesiveness.

At any point in time, you can preview what the report will look like after being exported by switching to the Preview tab.

Creating a Simple Data-Aware Report

The next step after creating a static report is making a data-aware report.

To make a report data-aware, you need to bind it to the required set of data. You can then modify report bands, report controls, page numeration, and many other aspects of the report to make sure it's relying all necessary information.

As with a static report, you can add various objects such as tables, gauges, and even checkboxes to add some interactivity.

Generating a Master-Detail Report

A master-detail report expands even further on the idea by including a detail table (such as a customer table) to the report.

Such a report will accurately display detailed data associated with items from the details table - for example, customers' names, addresses, emails, phone numbers, and activity status.

Exporting Data Reports to Various Formats

After a report is created and fully customized to fit your goals and requirements, you can export it to many widely-used formats.

The list of supported file formats includes PDF, HTML, MHT, RTF, XLS, XLSX, CSV, text files, and image files.

To export the report file, you'll just need to navigate to the Export Document button on the document toolbar, choose the desired format, and specify the export settings.

Conclusion

dbForge Studio for PostgreSQL provides an array of tools for making the process of data reporting and visualization simple and the resulting reports highly customizable and readable. You can visualize complex data relations and share the reports with other specialists who may need to get a more in-depth knowledge about your databases.
