The term "dashboard" can be explained as a representation of some data in a graphic way that can be displayed on a web page being linked to a database that allows such option as the report to be constantly updated.
There are lots of benefits of using digital dashboards. They include a chance to easily identify and so to correct all the negative trends, to make more informed decisions based on collected business intelligence and to generate detailed reports showing new trends.
Among other advantages of using dashboards, a simple-to-understand visual presentation of different performance measures can be mentioned as well as the prompt identification of data outliers and correlations that can be all mentioned within one drawing which can save a lot of time.
To measure both the needed efficiencies and/or inefficiencies, to align the chosen strategies and different organizational goals, to gain the total visibility of all systems at the same time can be all done by using the correct dashboards.
