Default dashboards give you a starting point for tracking incident response, workload, and alert performance in Rootly. By default, Rootly provides three dashboards:
  • Incident Response — Incident volume, response times, and incident breakdowns
  • Workload — Hours worked across incidents and responders
  • On-Call Metrics — Alert volume, acknowledgement, resolution, and response trends
Some default panels only appear when the related fields are enabled in your workspace configuration.
