For local SEO agencies that need automated marketing reports delivered on a schedule, DashThis connects over 40 data sources into pre-built and customizable dashboards that can be automatically emailed to clients monthly. Based in Canada, it is focused on reducing the manual work of agency client reporting.

What DashThis Actually Does Well

DashThis’s preset widget library makes dashboard building faster than blank-canvas tools like Looker Studio. Pre-built widgets for Google Analytics, Search Console, Google Ads, and Facebook provide the most commonly reported metrics without manual configuration. For agencies producing similar reports across many clients, the template and cloning system speeds up new client setup significantly.

Automated email delivery sends reports to clients on a monthly, weekly, or custom schedule without manual intervention. White-label branding covers custom agency logo, colors, and custom domain for the dashboard URL.

The CSV upload feature allows custom data to be manually added to dashboards, useful for local SEO KPIs tracked in a separate tool such as citation counts or geogrid data.

Local SEO: What DashThis Covers

DashThis integrates with Google Analytics, Search Console, and Google My Business (GBP), covering the primary data sources for local SEO client reporting. For agencies that also use a rank tracker, data can be pulled in via native integrations or CSV upload.

DashThis does not include any SEO analysis tools. It is a reporting layer only.

DashThis pricing is based on the number of dashboards:
