The Client Dashboard gives you a clear view of a client’s IT environment in Lifecycle Manager. It brings together key information about the client in one place.
Access to some sections depends on your plan and whether the client has a Lifecycle Manager X license applied.
Accessing a Client’s Dashboard
You can open a client’s dashboard from the navigation bar at the top of the screen:
- Hover over Home.
- Select Clients.
- Click the client’s name to open their dashboard.
Dashboard View
At the top of the page, you'll see the client's name, a starred indicator showing whether the client has been starred as a favourite, and the segment to which the client has been assigned.
Navigation panel
The navigation panel on the left side of the client dashboard lets you move between sections.
Features that require a Pro subscription or a Lifecycle Manager X license appear greyed out if they aren't available for that client.

The Insights panel uses automated, rules-based analyses to surface issues in the client’s environment. Each card represents an area of concern, making it easy to see where attention is needed.
Insight categories include:

Hardware modernization: Identifies aging servers and workstations needing upgrades or replacements.
Software modernization: Flags unsupported operating systems and applications.

Your insights: Lets you add custom insights for a specific client.
You can create personalized insights by modifying existing policies or defining new ones. This allows you to focus on the standards and risks that matter most to your business. Clicking on an Insight opens the related asset list, allowing you to review the specific devices or systems involved.
