Dashboard & Subscriptions

Widgets for the start page

• Post list and carousel with news from selected areas
• Events, birthdays and new colleagues
• Quick search, quick links and link tiles, including personal links
• Open tasks collected in the to-do widget
• Weather with official severe weather warnings, IT updates and RSS feeds
• Submit tickets and order meals directly on the dashboard

In practice: At a construction company, the dashboard shows the latest news in the morning, the weather with severe weather warnings for the sites and the pending read receipt for the new safety briefing. Anyone who notices a fault reports it right away via the ticket widget.

Key figures, tables and charts

• Custom tables displayed as an interactive table or as a chart
• Sorting, filtering and Excel export directly in the widget
• Maintain data in the table, if permitted
• The same tables and charts can also be used in posts
• "Incident-free days" widget with a warning after an incident

In practice: The occupational safety team shows the days since the last workplace accident on the dashboard. Next to it is a chart of reported near misses per site, maintained in a custom table.

Layout and settings

• Manage widget settings directly in the browser
• Define which views users may switch themselves
• Control the visibility of image and text widgets
• Freely designed text blocks and images with links
• External content via iFrame in a widget

In practice: Before the works council election, the communications department places an image linking to the election information at the very top of the dashboard. After the election, it is replaced with a note about the summer party.

Subscriptions and tags

• Tags and tag groups for posts and pages
• Subscribe to tags, people and entire main areas
• Predefined tag subscriptions for entire groups
• "Subscribed content" feed on the dashboard and in "My Area"
• Pause subscriptions and manage them on the smartphone
• Notification about new or changed subscribed content

In practice: Everyone in sales is pre-subscribed to the "Price list" tag. When a new price list is published, it automatically appears in their feed. One colleague also follows management so she never misses an announcement.
