What it Does
The Dashboard is a feature of the HelpSystemsInsite web browser interface. Insite can be downloaded from your User Account page on the HelpSystems website.
The HelpSystems Insite Dashboard can be used to display a visual representation of product activity.
You can create as many Dashboards as you like. A Dashboard can include any combination of Widgets. See New/Edit Widget pane for details. You can mix widgets from different products and Data Sources (servers). Dashboards are specific to the profile you used to log on. However, you can share them with everyone or keep them private, as needed. Users logging on with the guest profile can view only those dashboards marked as Guest. For more on the guest profile, see Authentication.
