This request is to increase the dashboard widget limit to 40 so that it will be useful to integrate all of the necessary keypoints in a single place when integrating with several external systems.

I agree with Mary that the widget limit should be increased to more than 30. It's not enough to share all the metrics on one page for our users. I think it should be increased to more than 40 as well. I hope the feature will be implemented in this way. Thanks

Would really like to see this implemented - especially for teams like mine, who use the rich text widgets to break up dashboards to be more legible. When you have data-hungry execs who already find it taxing to use global filters, it can be a hard sell to combine widgets and get them to go to drill-downs for all the information they want. A direct quote from my org “Execs just want to look at things”. So, help me to help them look at things. Thanks for considering.

This.

Editing filters adds time. Time = money. Subtracting time = efficiency. Execs like efficiency.

Please! We’ve hit the widget count limit a handful of times over the years. It’s really hard to start removing important widgets to make room for other important widgets… I rather be able to add them all and not have to rank important vs. more important and lose insights due to removed reports.

Increasing the dashboard widget limit would be beneficial, as it would enable us to add new reports without having to remove existing widgets. This would help maintain the current dashboard layout while supporting additional reporting requirements.

This would be huge. Our team has had to default to creating dashboards in Domo due to limitations in Gainsight. The widget limitation is one of the primary reasons. Filtering/customization/labels/etc. are another. I don’t have a “magic number” that would solve the issue, but being able to label reports/widgets without using an ADDITIONAL widget to do so would be huge.

If the limit cannot be raised, at least allow us to exclude things like a text widget from counting to the overall total. We’ve had to use these to provide order to some chaos with section groupings or providing links to internal articles on our knowledge base for more robust information. But because they eat into the limited allotment, we’re finding ourselves juggling if it’s worth the perceived cost.

I would love to see a boost in widget limits or switching the limit to be based solely on reports and not standard widgets, as this would be a huge advantage in making dashboards easier for my end users to work through. We heavily use standard widgets (rich text, images, web page) to provide clarity and structure throughout the dashboards so even our newest team members can navigate the space like a pro (and so the pros can stay up to date or peep those reminders).

The current limit means we usually have to pivot to outside sources, multiple dashboards, or creative solutioning with drill-downs of graphs/KPIs.
