Dashboard Best Practices

A guidance panel titled Dashboard Best Practices is included at the bottom of the page. It offers practical tips to help users design efficient and meaningful dashboards:
  • Start with a clear goal – Define what data or KPIs you intend to monitor before adding widgets.
  • Keep it focused – Maintain clarity by limiting each dashboard to six to eight widgets for better readability.
  • Use appropriate visualizations – Choose chart or widget types that best represent the underlying data trends.
  • Set up alerts – Configure thresholds to receive notifications for significant changes or anomalies.
