The most comprehensive breakdown of B2B/B2C SaaS metrics

Designed to help product managers, founders, operators, analysts, and growth teams make smarter, faster, and more aligned decisions.

I will update this document periodically because I use it regularly.

Enjoy this 170+ metrics list!

What You'll Find Inside

Each row in this table represents a key SaaS metric. Every metric includes:

Metric Name – Standard name or acronym used in SaaS.
Definition – A clear explanation of what the metric measures.
Type – Is it a Leading or Lagging indicator?
Funnel Stage/Department – Where the metric fits your business.
- e.g., Revenue, Retention, Product, AARRR metrics + a few more helpful categories.

When to Use This

Build dashboards → Use this database to guide your KPI dashboards in tools like Looker, Tableau, or Retool.

Define OKRs → Align OKRs with metrics that matter most to each team or company goal.

Train teams → Share this with new team members, founders, or analysts to level up shared language around SaaS health.
