recently I found at LinkedIn an interesting contribution and some comments on it.
"Make
your pie charts pop with #Qlik's new #dataviz styling
options! Customise to your heart's content with different outline colours,
widths, corner radius looks, or add text to the inner radius."
and how users react...
Please
don't forget to use pie charts sparingly in your dashboards and follow some
of Bernard Marr's
advice if you still want to use pie charts: https://bernardmarr.com/why-you-shouldnt-use-pie-charts-in-your-dashboards-and-performance-reports
Here are some examples of pie charts with contents which could be presented by better chart types:
the author of this chart already presented a possible better solution in his chart. Bars should be dimensioned by the values and then sorted and brought into a ranking order...
not the best choice for comparisons
same colours for different content causes confusion
As can be seen bar charts offer a better and faster overview and reading.
Most of pie chart content can be better presented with bar charts. They provide for example better overview, comparing and sorting conditions
