Executive Dashboard

A Dashboard Gives the Executive At-A-Glance Performance Data

The digital dashboard, like its automotive counterpart, is designed to give the executive a broad overview of how well things are running. Business dashboards provide critical information on processes, performance, and progress toward goals using visuals that may include charts, graphs and other at-a-glance displays designed to impart knowledge quickly. Executives can establish warnings and alerts in the event of poor performance, and drill down on top line summaries to see detailed data. But because the effectiveness of a dashboard relies on the comprehensiveness of its data, many applications are at a disadvantage: they simply can't consolidate data from all the various sources necessary to get a comprehensive view of enterprise performance. That's why many executives choose Cognos.
