4. Create Dashboards¶
Dashboards are data visualization tools that centrally display various metrics in chart form, reflecting system status in real-time. They integrate multi-source data, helping to quickly identify anomalies and trends, while supporting team sharing and collaboration to improve decision-making efficiency.
Guance comes with 200+ built-in view templates. You can start visualizing data analysis with one click by reusing view templates, or create your own custom dashboards.
