Polar charts

Polar charts can take various formats in business intelligence and are often confused with their cousin, the Spider Chart. In Brilliant Assessments, a polar chart is more like a cross between a Spider and a Pie chart, where whole segments illustrate the values in a circular format.

Polar charts

Compare data across multiple categories, whether based on percentage scores or actual average scores. They offer a circular view of data, adding a unique visual dimension to your reports.

Multi polar charts

Like Multi Vertical Bar Charts, these are used in feedback and cohort reports to juxtapose individual or group results with benchmark data. They offer the same circular view as regular Polar Charts but with added layers of information.

A radar chart showing the emotional responses to different types of music, with categories such as happiness, sadness, relaxation, and energy, represented by various shades of orange and brown.

Circumplex charts

Adding a background (or foreground) to a chart can add considerable context. Circumplex charts are a popular example, to make a polar chart really pop!
