8+ Excel Dashboard Templates
Microsoft Excel has become a worldwide staple in every professional setting (or at least, the professional settings not taken over by Apple and Linux). Inexperienced users will imagine that Excel is good only for tabled numbers in spreadsheets, but Excel is also very adept at presenting numerical data in visual graphic form. Fittingly, the setup you create on Excel for this feature is called a dashboard. Dashboards are the front panels of a vehicle containing controls that help you navigate. Similarly, the Excel dashboard will help you navigate all the complex quantitative information and present it to others in a logical, professional way.
Sounds good—so where do you start? And just how many ways can you use this flexible dashboard feature? These free Excel Templates will show you just some examples.
