Introduction

Introduction

In this era of big data, companies are gathering tons ofrninformation. But much of that data is stored in ways that make it difficult forrnemployees and managers to access it. One solution has been to write reports tornshare critical information. However, reports usually tell only one story orrndisplay just one piece of information.

Enter dashboards. Dashboards provide one spot to display keyrnpieces of information at the same time to a common group of informationrnconsumers. Creating dashboards can be a cumbersome task, but luckily, there arerntools that make it easier and deliver great results.

Let’s take a look at five web-based dashboard appsrnthat connect to a variety of data sources and offer a variety of “look andrnfeel” choices to suit your needs.
