If your new dashboard is replacing currently-used reports then review how and when they will be retired. Finally, you’ll want to plan a series of training sessions as well as set up how future feedback will be collected. We’ll go over this in more detail in the next blog.
Testing Dashboard Performance
When you’re satisfied that you’re ready to begin the release process, then start first with testing the dashboard performance. This includes:
Checking that users can find the dashboard
Seeing how quickly it loads
Making sure that it can handle a certain number of concurrent users
Checking that it works on the devices being used including tablets and mobile
Next, ask test users to open the dashboard at the same time to test simultaneous usage. If multiple countries are involved, try as much as possible to simulate usage across geographies.
In my next blog I’ll discuss the rollout process, training and communication, and collecting ongoing feedback.
