Reservation Insights dashboard provides insight in the historical reservation data. The question it tries to answer is: “Based on data of reservations that are not cancelled, how can we optimize usage and learn from usage patterns?”

Historical data means that the visualized data in the dashboard was gathered until yesterday. The Reservations Insights dashboard will load data from 12 months ago, with hard limit after 01/07/2022.
