Overview

This document describes how to navigate BrightGauge™, a ConnectWise solution. Learn where to find your dashboards, gauges, data sources, account settings, and other BrightGauge resources.

What do you see after logging in?

Admin Users - Home Screen

If you're a BrightGauge Admin user, the Home screen is the first screen you see after you log into BrightGauge. Viewers cannot see this screen. To access this screen, click the BrightGauge logo on the left of the top menu bar. From this screen, you can quickly access your BrightGauge resources and perform the following tasks:

1. The Dashboards, Goal Management, and Reports tiles enable you to create new dashboards, goals, and reports.

2. The Latest Updates, Upcoming Events, and Past Events tiles showcase the latest updates in BrightGauge, along with events you may be interested in.

3. The Datasources section lists available data sources and enables you to add new data sources.

4. The Users section lists the Admin and Analyst users in your account and enables you to add new users.

5. The ? button lets you access the Resource Center, including Help Center documentation and Support ticket submission.

Analyst and Viewer Users - Dashboards

After an Analyst or a Viewer logs in to BrightGauge, they are brought to the Dashboards screen. By default, this screen is blank until an Admin shares dashboards with the Analyst or Viewer. Admins may share dashboards in multiple ways:

• With all users from a dashboard
• With Analysts from the Your Account > Users screen
• With Viewers from the Your Account > Viewers screen

Top Menu Bar

The top menu bar is available on every screen in BrightGauge for all users and allows you to quickly access Dashboards, Goals, Reports, Gauges, and Data.
