Widgets can be customized in Remote Desktop Manager to let users build dashboards while giving administrators the ability to define and enforce a standard widget configuration.
Widgets are available in both Devolutions Hub and Devolutions Server.
User: Dashboard personalized by each user.
System: Preset dashboard set by an administrator for consistent usage across the organization.
The Widgets window lets you configure which widgets are displayed and when. Widgets are grouped by type (Counter, List, and Graph), and each widget has a Visibility option you can set (such as Always, Never, or If not empty).
Use the buttons to Add widget, Show all, Hide all, or Reset to default then click Save to apply your changes or Cancel to discard them.
This Add widget window lets you create a new widget.

In Dashboard configuration mode, select one of the following:
No change: Keeps the current dashboard behavior.
Default for users: Applies the preset dashboard by default, while still allowing users to customize their dashboard .
Enforce for users: Forces the preset dashboard and prevents user customization.
In the Customize widgets window, widget visibility can be set to Always, Never, or If not empty.
