Dashboards

Located on the “Manage” level of the eze.io user interface, Dashboards are designed as a place to curate collections of data, graphically displayed with “Widgets”. Similar to the design of an automobile dashboard, a Dashboard can offer live data, status & warning indicators, controls, settings and historical data. The size, color, type and placement of various Widgets can be used to create an intuitive interface. Multiple Dashboards can be used to group by location, asset, team, personal preference, or use one for an overview and additional Dashboards to provide a deeper look into specific systems/equipment. See the Widget page for more general information on Widgets and a directory of individual Widget pages.
