- First, I would speak with users to understand why they are not using the dashboard and what challenges they face.
- Sometimes the issue is not data accuracy but usability or relevance to their daily tasks.
- I would review whether the dashboard answers the key business questions users actually have.
- If needed, I would simplify the layout and highlight the most important KPIs.
- In one project, users ignored a dashboard because it had too many visuals and was difficult to navigate.
- We redesigned it with fewer charts and clearer sections, which improved usage.
- I would also check performance, because slow dashboards can discourage users.
- Providing a short demo or training session can help users understand how to use the dashboard effectively.
- Finally, I would collect feedback regularly and iterate on the design to better meet user needs.
A dashboard adoption is low even though data is correct. How do you improve adoption?
