    Hello everyone,

    Genesys Cloud Analytics team is excited to announce the beta release of new dashboard UI feature for the community. This feature introduces new responsive layout with the size of widgets adjusting automatically based on the metrics and visual data they display.  The goal of this feature is to ensure better visibility and easy access to dashboard's data while saving time on layout decisions. For more details, please refer to the announcement here: https://help.mypurecloud.com/dashboard-ui-updates/

    Click here to apply for this beta

    Please note that the sharing feature (sharing dashboards with work teams and individuals) will not be part of this beta but will be included in the GA release of this feature.

    Once accepted to the Beta, Genesys will enable this feature for your organization and reach out for the feedback!

    Thank you and looking forward to your participation!

    Hello, does a Dark Mode exist? We've received some verbal feedback from customers expressing their dislike for the bright white interface, and they've indicated that they won't be selecting 'Stay Here'. Could you please verify this?

    I completely agree with you. I am not a fan of the bright white background and prefer the dark mode because its easier on the eyes and differentiates it from other open workspace tabs. Can we please get a dark mode?!?!

    The theme used to be darker, but it was lost during some "improvements" a while back. The lack of Dark Mode has been the cause of some heated debate!

    Please see this idea https://genesyscloud.ideas.aha.io/ideas/SSAAOB-I-28 and vote on it.

    Thanks for this, Paul. We have created some dashboards, in Q2 this year, and they have all been in dark mode so I was unaware they were supposed to display differently until this was posted.

    I should mention that the previous discussion (and that Idea) related specifically to Architect, but the same principles and reasoning applies to every part of the UI.

    Thanks @Nicki Dehn, @Paul Simpson, @Paul Kendrick for the feedback. Dark mode is not in this feature as noted here: https://help.mypurecloud.com/dashboard-ui-updates/

    We understand how important the optionality of selecting the dark or light modes is while using dashboards. Enabling dark mode option is one of the high priority features on the product roadmap and we are working on getting it out as soon as possible.

    Thanks,

    Realistically when would Dark Mode be implemented considering pretty much everyone wants this and it has been brought up several times during other UI changes?

    I personally feel that it's much more important with dashboard, considering how they are used (on TV screens) and they are dark today.

    A lot of customers will start complaining this goes GA and I don't quite understand how Dark Mode hasn't made it into the scope to avoid annoying customers.

    Hey Everyone!

    OK, so I should start out by saying I am totally on "Team Dark Mode", but more than that, I believe in giving the customer / user a choice. That being said, I stumbled across this video that discusses Dark vs Light Modes and actually includes some research into it. Makes for interesting viewing...

    Hi Team,

    Initial feedback from me
    1. Lack of Darkmode is very disappointing - I don't particularly like getting flash banged when I open a dashboard

    2. Please add the colour picker for warnings back how it was previously, the new colours that are available are very dark and don't stand out very much, I would prefer to be able to pick exactly what shade of Red/Green etc I want to use Screenshots below

    New

    Old
    3. the lack of choice about how the widgets are displayed is not that great, i would like to be able to choose between have a set number of columns/rows and having it adjust based on the window size for example, the new design has the text shrunk on the screenshot below, however in the old version we have a set 4 columns and the text was bigger and much more readable

    Thanks Team

    On a related note regarding the warning colors, it would be ideal to have each warning apply to a specific metric. For example, we have a single widget that shows counts or percentages of multiple metrics (e.g. Abandon, Answer, Offered). We only want the warning to apply to the Abandon metric, not all metrics in the widget, so adding that granularity within the Warning settings would be appreciated.

    I also agree with @Cameron Stone's feedback regarding the widget display options (item 3 on the list). For example, unless I go Fullscreen, use a much higher resolution, large monitor, or stretch the window size, this is the best view I can get, which leaves an exorbitant amount of dead space. And even when I do use Fullscreen, large monitor, etc, I still cannot manually move/drag the widgets side by side. Would be nice if the widgets were resizable/movable horizontally in a grid fashion.

    Thanks @Brian Jones for the feedback.

    Can you please log an idea for your suggestion on selecting a different color per metric on the dashboard? That'll help us gather votes and any additional feedback. We'll evaluate it as part of the idea intake process.

    For the second point, were you not able to drag and drop the widget in the selected white space being the "edit layout" mode?

    Thanks for responding @Nikhil Ponnam. I have added my suggestion to https://genesyscloud.ideas.aha.io/ideas/ANLS-I-639

    Regarding moving the widgets around in the Edit Layout mode, although I can click/drag the widgets around, they will only drop above/below the other widgets, not next to them as shown in your screenshot. And believe me--I've tried tirelessly to make them, haha. I have even tried Fullscreen, stretching the window size across 3 monitors, and moving all of the widgets to the top of the dashboard--no avail. If there is a trick to it, it truly shouldn't be that complicated to figure out.

    Thanks @Cameron Stone for the feedback.

    We are working on making the dark mode option available as soon as possible.

    For # 2, the color picker has been updated in order to support both the light and dark modes in future. When the optionality of selecting light or dark mode is available and if the user switches from light to dark or vice versa, we need to be able to automatically map the selected colors to the appropriate counterpart in the dark/light mode, for visibility and accessibility compliance. That won't be possible with the current color picker. The available colors in this beta feature are darker because of the light background but, along the same lines, the lighter colors will be available for the dark background.

    For # 3, automatically adjusting the layout is one of the main aspects of this feature to avoid situations like the need for horizontal scrolling that is a possibility with the current dashboard format, but I do understand your point about the smaller text as a result of this auto-adjustment. We are evaluating the features of manual widget sizing and font size specification to enhance this experience.

    Thanks,

    On the old dashboard we could have a metric span across the entire screen, as a header/footer

    New dashboard, doesn't seem to allow this. This was a really useful feature to highlight/track what is most important and it is missing from the new UI.
