Getting the most out of dashboards. By: Wille, Allan. Network World. 12/3/2007, Vol. 24 Issue 47, p18-18. 1p. Abstract: The author reflects on the ways to utilize the dashboards which can unlock the information technology (IT) investment value by linking Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and analysis tools. He states that dashboard design needs to take into account human behavior, and to appear on the desktop to get the most out of the tools. He asserts that the user has to be judicious in choosing which metrics appear on the dashboard, and to understand which changes are important to trigger the alerts. (AN: 27737452)
