Dashboards
The Dashboard is the front page of DefectDojo — a summary of your team’s performance and a launchpad for monitoring the areas that matter to you.
Open source vs. DefectDojo Pro
How the dashboard works depends on which edition you run:
| Open Source | DefectDojo Pro | |
|---|---|---|
| Home dashboard | One fixed Main Dashboard for everyone | Per-user customizable dashboards |
| Choose what appears | Superuser toggles a fixed set of charts on/off | Each user adds, configures, and arranges widgets |
| Multiple named dashboards | No | Yes — build and switch between any number of layouts |
| Share / clone / set a default | — | Yes — publish layouts to your team, clone templates, set your default |
| REST API + LLM automation | — | Yes — discover the catalog, create layouts, render widget data |
In short: open source gives every user the same built-in Main Dashboard with a fixed set of components. DefectDojo Pro lets each user build their own dashboards out of widgets, share them, and drive the whole system from the UI, the REST API, or an LLM.
