4. The OPR Dashboard Philosophy

The OPR Dashboard represents one of Sangam CRM's most unique and powerful features. As one Sangam CRM expert explains, "Reports or graphs are excellent for getting historical data and tracking trends, but OPR empowers you to act swiftly. This way, you see what needs immediate attention" .

The OPR Philosophy:

  • Open: Activities created but not yet started

  • Periodic: Activities currently in progress

  • Result: Activities that have been completed

Why It Matters:
"Having an OPR dashboard is absolutely essential for every business. The reason is simple: to provoke thoughts, graphs are great, but to inspire actions, you need numbers" . The OPR Dashboard focuses on "actionable numbers that represent your business's pulse, not its entire medical history" .
