A dashboard is not just an interface; but proof of data CRUD create, read, update, and delete
 & comparison.

  • :warning: dashboards are not for a “CEO [to see] pretty graphs [for] making real-time [business] decisions”
  • :zap: dashboards do demonstrate (easy) data access
    • live & historic data
    • comparative metrics
    • connect/unify multiple databases
    • external data sources
  • :bulb: accessible + comparable + trackable = actionable
  • :stop_sign: alternative is bad: trapped/locked data = useless
    • spreadsheets
    • multiple logins walls
    • multiple (incompatible) formats
