WooCommerce admin provides much better reporting capabilities than previous generations of reports and allows for filtering, comparisons and overview how the store is doing in terms of sales, revenue, which products are the most popular/highest-grossing, adds capabilities for improved customer management and analytics.
It is now very easy to export the data from the reports as csv to enable smooth interoperation with other systems.
Go deeper with analytics for revenue, orders, products, categories and more.
Together with the WooCommerce admin, there will be a new Activity panel with improved order management workflow and consistency between the desktop and mobile experience to all the customers.
