<h2>Maximizing Airtable Dashboards with No-Code Tool Jet Admin</h2>
<p>Getting insights from your Airtable dashboards can sometimes be challenging due to limitations such as a lack of functionality for calculating functions or formulas. But the good news is, there is a solution: the no-code tool Jet Admin!</p>

<h2>The Challenge with Airtable Dashboards</h2>
<p>Airtable dashboards are beneficial for businesses as they allow you to generate insightful data easily. However, more complex calculations cannot be performed directly on these dashboards. For instance, if you wanted to perform functions or formulas on your dashboard data for more exact insights, you would have to seek an alternative method outside of the Airtable dashboard or interface.</p>

<p>That's where Jet Admin comes in. It's a no-code tool that enables you to perform advanced calculations on a dashboard on the fly. By connecting to various backends, including Airtable, Jet Admin provides an enhanced level of functionality that Airtable's interfaces cannot currently offer.</p>

<h2>Utilizing Jet Admin for Accurate Calculations</h2>
<p>Jet Admin isn't just another tool for viewing and drawing data; it also allows you to run calculations on your dashboard. For instance, when running a business, you may need to calculate profit as a percentage of total revenue. This can essentially affect your business's momentum. Jet Admin lets you perform these calculations accurately using data from your dashboard, thereby offering insights that can guide strategic decision-making.</p>

<h2>Advanced Functionality with Jet Admin</h2>
<p>Jet Admin allows you to create a custom dashboard, pull data, and more importantly, use numbers presented on your dashboard to perform calculations— a function that Airtable dashboards currently do not offer. Whether it's total revenue, total profit, or profit as a percentage of total revenue, Jet Admin provides accurate, dynamic updates based on your calculations, a great advantage for businesses that rely heavily on data for strategic operations.</p>

<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p>Maximizing no-code tools like Airtable and Jet Admin can provide your business with valuable insights and data accuracy.
