# Monitoring

The **Monitoring** page in Qubitro provides a way to view and manage dashboards and blueprints.

### **Dashboards**

Dashboards display real-time and historical data using widgets like charts and tables. They also support collaboration with customers and internal teams.

Blueprints allow you to create your own templates and then use them to create and update multiple dashboards.

Blueprints are **only available** for [organizations](/organizations/overview.md) with an Enterprise plan and are **not available** on personal accounts.

### FAQ

<details>

<summary>What is the difference between Dashboards and Blueprints?</summary>

Both Dashboards and Blueprints help visualize data, but they serve different purposes:

* **Dashboards**: Created using templates, imported JSON files, or customized layouts to display real-time and historical data.
* **Blueprints**: Use dashboards as templates to automatically generate multiple dashboards for different devices and keep them updated consistently.
