AppBoard is a data visualization tool that works by fetching data from a variety of data sources and caches, transforms, associates, and then presents the data in a set of dashboards. AppBoard dashboards are not static however, as actions can be defined to perform drill-downs, filter content, show additional details, and more. As a result it's possible to build highly interactive dashboards that allows users to quickly both visualize data and zero-in on the information they need to perform their job.

Building dashboards in AppBoard is easy using the Builder tool which is a graphical Adobe Flash based client. All configuration is GUI based including configuring collecting and managing data, building out content, and other system administration functions.

End-users of the system use the AppBoard Viewer which is also a Adobe Flash based client. This provides users with a restricted set of dashboards with the ability to interact but not modify the contents or behaviour.
