# Platform Overview

The PerfAgents Dashboard provides a high-level overview of **test executions** and **outcomes**, offering consolidated visibility into **performance testing** and **synthetic monitoring** activities. Dedicated dashboards are available for both the services, **Testing** and **Synthetic Monitoring**, each designed to present relevant metrics and execution insights. It provides visibility into **system health, active monitors, load tests, alerts,** and **usage**, all from a unified interface.

The platform is structured into two primary modules: **Load Testing** and **Monitoring**. Users can switch between these modules using the toggle in the Left Navigation Panel. \
&#x20;\
The dashboard interface consists of three primary areas:&#x20;

1. Top Header&#x20;
2. Left Navigation Panel&#x20;
3. Main Workspace Area&#x20;

#### Top Header&#x20;

The top header provides global controls and contextual information:&#x20;

1. **Organization Selector:** Displays the currently active organization and allows switching between organizations (if multi-org access is enabled).&#x20;
2. **Project Selector:** Displays the selected project within the organization. Users must select a project to view or configure data.&#x20;
3. **Trial Status Indicator:** Displays remaining trial days (e.g., “You’ve 14 days left in your trial”) and includes a visible Upgrade button.&#x20;
4. **User Profile Section:** Displays the logged-in username and role (e.g., Owner) of the user.&#x20;

#### Left Navigation Panel&#x20;

The left sidebar provides module-level navigation and feature access. At the top, users can toggle between:&#x20;

1. Testing&#x20;
2. Monitoring&#x20;

Each module displays its own contextual navigation options:&#x20;

| Module     | Navigation Options                                                                                     |
| ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| Testing    | Dashboard, Create Load Test, All Tests                                                                 |
| Monitoring | Dashboard, Create Monitoring, Alerts, Custom Variables, Whitelisted Domain, Maintenance, Holistic View |

At the bottom of the sidebar, the Plan & Usage Indicator displays the current plan (e.g., Free, Basic or Business) and shows usage limits (e.g., LG-Hours) against the subscription tier.

The main screen of the platform dynamically updates based on the selected organization, selected project, and current dashboard context.
