# Keep Tabs on Every Detail with Reports

See how your business is doing, make better purchasing decisions, and keep tabs on your progress with reports.

## Why Do We Use Them?

Reports help you feel confident about the decisions you make by backing them up with data. They also provide a record of your business’ progress over time, so you can see any changes that affect your bottom line.

## Why Are They Important?

Reports show whether you’re on the right track or if you need to make a change. From specific details about how your sales are going to stats on customer cases, reports can look at your business from every angle you need.
