Dashboards within Engage allow users to reference a visual interface that consolidates key business data and metrics. Charts, graphs, and lists help you understand trends and patterns in your business.

Within Engage, you can have Personal dashboards and System dashboards. Personal dashboards are customized and visible by individual users, and System dashboards are created and customized by your System Administrator, and available to all users.  

 

Watch this short video to learn more about Personal Dashboards.

 

All users can choose their default dashboard by clicking on Set As Default.
