Who uses which dashboards

As you create many dashboards for different roles in your organization, you will find that some of the information or widgets apply to more than one user or role. For example, the VMware administrator may need a dashboard that shows information about VMs, ESXi, network, and storage on a single screen. The network widget in that dashboard is also useful for the network administrator. So don't worry if you find yourself duplicating information as you build your dashboards. This is why we prefer to use the View widget in vRealize Operations, as it can be shared across dashboards. What start as very similar dashboards may evolve over time as user requirements change.
