Dashboards are highly visual representations of enterprise performance that integrate a variety of data elements into a single graphical display.  Whether cross-functional or domain-specific, dashboards are designed to deliver maximum visual impact in a format optimized for quick absorption. Dashboards combine tables, graphs, gauges, dials and other graphical indictors, conditional formatting, free-form labels, borders and background colors to achieve this impact.

Dashboards are an excellent way for executives and all decision-makers to quickly become aware of the status of the business, discover relative progress, as compared, for instance, to other territories, other divisions, or other time periods, and identify valuable performance trends.  Scorecards and dashboards provide "at-a-glance" information about business performance across the enterprise. They are typically generated for managers and executives who need an overall view of business performance and find tremendous value in viewing timely, visually intuitive snapshots of strategic financial and operational data.
