ServiceNow Tableau Dashboard Example

This ServiceNow Tableau Dashboard provides business users with an executive overview of their ticket incidents, problems, and requests. Users can quickly view ticket trends, overdue items, tickets by priority type, and top categories, groups, and requests. 

This dashboard also includes three additional tracker dashboards, where users can navigate from the main dashboard to dive deeper into more detailed metrics for incidents, problems, and requests.

Who is This Dashboard For?

This collection of ServiceNow dashboards is designed for a broad user base within an organization, including IT managers, executives, service desk agents, IT analysts, IT operations teams, customers, administrators, business stakeholders, HR professionals, and customer service representatives. 

These dashboards enable users to monitor IT service performance, track key metrics, identify trends and issues, and ensure efficient service delivery. Ultimately, these dashboards help IT service teams understand which ticket types are the highest of priority, where most of the tickets originate from, and drive business decisions around where and how they can improve ServiceNow performance. 

Additionally, they can also be adapted for other similar ticket tracking and request systems, such as ServiceDesk.
