Hey everyone! I'm super excited to share something I built that's been really helpful for our team rollout. We're adopting a new data catalog tool, and I needed a way to show our leadership how it's going without getting lost in the weeds.
I created a super simple adoption dashboard that just uses a 'red/yellow/green' status for each team. It tracks three things: whether a team has completed the training, whether they've logged in at least once, and whether they've created their first asset (like a table description). I just pull the data from our usage logs and a survey table, then run a daily Python script to color-code everything.
The execs love it because it's one slide that instantly shows where we need to help. Yellow means a team is getting started but stuck, red means we need to jump in, and green means they're rolling. It's not fancy, but it's sparked way better conversations than a giant spreadsheet ever did.
Has anyone else tried something similar for tracking adoption? I'm wondering if I'm missing any obvious metrics—maybe something about quality of use, not just first use? I'd love to hear how you measure success beyond the initial login.
