We have a few important points to help you optimize your Datorama Dashboards and there are two key areas where this has to be done.

• Page Setting-Up
• Filtering.

• Consider a set-up across several pages, rather than one page with a very extensive list of widgets. Fewer widgets will load quicker for a better user experience.
• Only display data at the necessary granularity as per KPI. E.g. if weekly tracking is sufficient, don’t display at a daily level.
• strong>The Rich Text widget is great for design, however do not use too many within one page.
• Ensure that the Rich Text widgets only contain dimensions or measures which are used to represent data.
  Time comparison widgets often query a lot of data so don’t include too many on one page.
• Many widgets at the top of a page (e.g. many status widgets) can affect page load times, so limit to the necessary widgets only

• Filter only by the necessary time periods. Lengthy time windows affect performance.
• Use check boxes if possible; complex rules like ‘not contain’ can slow things down causing performance issues.
• Apply Interactive Filters to relevant widgets only
• Set Default Filters if possible when using Interactive Filters, it is better for user experience.
