Understand your HiDesc dashboard and customize it for maximum productivity

Dashboard

The Dashboard is a personalized overview panel displaying real-time statistics, updates, and insights into tasks, projects, and team performance. It helps users monitor progress and deadlines efficiently with customizable widgets that fit different workflows.
