Boards

Introduction

The Boards in Docusnap365 offer a central way to bring together information from different areas and present it clearly.
This ensures you always have the most important information in view and can respond to problems before they become critical.

Key figures, anomalies, and trends can be identified immediately – without having to switch between individual modules.

Structure of the Boards

• Dashboards
  A predefined dashboard is initially provided by Docusnap365. This can be customized and extended with additional widgets. You can also create your own dashboards to represent specific priorities for your company.

• Topic Boards
  In addition to dashboards, there are other overarching areas that act as collections of multiple specific boards:

  • Systems
    • Currently: Windows Clients, Windows Server
    • Planned: Linux, Mac, ESX, as well as an overview board (aggregated view independent of the operating system, not yet released)
  • Data Quality
  • Security & Compliance
    • Currently: Windows Clients, Windows Server
    • Planned: additional boards and an overview board with aggregated security and compliance metrics
  • Hardware
    • Currently: Windows Clients Hardware, Windows Server Hardware
    • Planned: further platforms as well as an overview board for the entire hardware landscape

These areas group several boards with the same thematic focus. This allows you to switch between different views, such as servers vs. clients, without losing context.

Widgets

Widgets are the building blocks of the boards. They display key metrics, status information, or alerts, for example when risks or anomalies exist.
Examples:

• System Age with color coding for modern, to-be-checked, or outdated systems
• SMB1 Protocol with a security warning if still active
• Update Compliance showing systems with overdue updates

Widgets can be individually configured, for example by adjusting thresholds or categories.

Widget Details

A widget not only shows aggregated metrics but also allows drill-down into the underlying data.

• Click on a widget
  Opens a tabular list of all systems or objects included in the metric.
• Details per widget
  Depending on the type of widget, additional information is displayed (e.g., operating system, support status, security configuration).
• Navigate to the object
  Via a link in the table, you can go directly to the detailed view of the respective object. This opens in a new tab.
