It is easy to use Splunk to develop an attractive dashboard with multiple panels. However, this is not usually the best way to present your information. This is because a dashboard with multiple panels generally requires scrolling down the page, which can take the viewer's eyes away from crucial information. An effective dashboard should generally meet the following conditions:
Single page: The dashboard fits on a single page with no scrolling required
Multiple data points displayed: Charts and visualizations should display a number of data points
Crucial information highlighted: The dashboard points out the most important information, using appropriate titles, labels, legends, and markers
Created with the user in mind: Data is summarized in a way that is meaningful to the viewer
Loads quickly: The dashboard loads in a few seconds
Avoid redundancy: The display does not repeat information in multiple places
