Introducing the new CARTO dashboard 🎉

The dashboard is one of the core pieces of CARTO. It’s what users see right after they login to their CARTO accounts. From here, users can manage their datasets, create maps with Builder, update their account settings, API keys, and much more.

For some time, we had been hearing feedback and suggestions on how to make the dashboard better and, a couple of months ago, the Product team at CARTO decided it was the right time to give the dashboard some love. After some research and design work, we set out to build something new and fresh that would quickly deliver great value to our users!

That’s exactly what we’re announcing today! 🎉🎉🎉

The new dashboard will not only make users more productive, but it also provides a strong foundation, and has given us some inertia to continue iterating, improving, and delivering more value to the wide and diverse range of CARTO users. This is just the beginning!

Starting today, we’ll progressively enable the new dashboard to all CARTO users.
