When it comes to visualizing data, you’ll find plenty of native Salesforce reports. However, they are static and only provide a deeper look at specific data at a specific time. They don’t update in real-time, and you’ll need to refer to different reports individually to gain insights into different aspects of your business.
This is why using interactive and dynamic Salesforce dashboards is a better option. They consolidate insights from multiple reports and display them in a single, comprehensive view. In this article, we have curated 13 dashboards for Salesforce to monitor and track your sales, marketing, and customer service.

What is the difference between a Salesforce dashboard and a template?
A Salesforce dashboard is a visual representation tool that you can create to view various metrics, such as sales and marketing insights, and make better decisions and strategies.
A Salesforce dashboard template is a reusable tool that you can use or customize to meet your specific requirements. It saves you the time and effort of creating a dashboard from scratch.
What types of Salesforce dashboards exist?
- Sales dashboard represents sales metrics, such as total sales win/loss ratio, conversions, revenue, etc. This helps you understand sales trends, forecast sales, and improve sales.
- Marketing dashboard shows marketing KPIs, such as site traffic, conversion rates, lead generation, social media engagement, etc., to track marketing progress and adjust strategies.
- Customer service dashboard provides insights into customer interactions, team performance, response rates, and more. Using these insights, you can improve agent performance, train agents, and allocate resources efficiently.
- Operational dashboard reflects the current business state with key metrics, such as quality control, employee productivity, customer retention/acquisition rate, time-to-decision, etc., to help optimize operational efficiency.
- Analytical dashboard displays metrics, such as revenues, lead generation, online conversions, customer satisfaction rates, churn rates, etc., interactively using tables, charts, and plots to enhance overall business performance.
- Strategic dashboard offers a lightning-fast overview of current performance against set KPIs to monitor the efficiency of strategies and improve them.
What Salesforce dashboard components should you add?
You can’t just randomly add visual elements to your dashboards since each chart or graph has a specific value. For example, line charts are the best way to show progress, and scorecards are the choice to highlight a specific result. Check out some of the most common components you can use in your Salesforce dashboard:
Charts show insights graphically. You can add various chart types, such as:
- Bar charts: To view values horizontally or vertically, best for displaying one grouping in a summary report.
- Line charts: To show changes in metrics over time, suitable for understanding trends and relationships.
- Pie charts: To highlight a proportion of a value (usually in %) for each group against the total value.
- Donut charts: To display the proportions of data in each category as arcs and not slices (unlike pie charts).
Tables represent a set of insights in columns, highlighting groupings and fields. For example, if you want to see the top 5 opportunities by amount, you can customize the table by selecting columns like opportunity amount and name to display. Next, apply settings like sort order and conditional highlighting to view the desired groupings and fields.
Metric charts display one key value among many. It’s useful when you want to quickly view the amount of something, for instance, the number of days in the sales pipeline.
Gauge charts are used to show a single value within a set of values, which can indicate something like poor, satisfactory, and excellent.
