Slow Dashboard

If the GoVista dashboard is loading slowly, here are steps to improve performance.

Browser Optimization

1. Clear browser cache:

  • Chrome: Settings > Privacy > Clear browsing data
  • Select cached images and files
  • Restart the browser

2. Disable unnecessary extensions:

  • Ad blockers and privacy extensions can interfere
  • Try loading GoVista in incognito mode to test

3. Update your browser:

  • Use the latest version of Chrome, Firefox, or Edge
  • Outdated browsers may not optimize well for modern web apps

Network Issues

Check your internet speed:

  • GoVista dashboard works best on connections of 10 Mbps or faster
  • High latency (ping > 200ms) causes sluggish interactions

Corporate network:

  • VPNs can slow down the connection
  • Proxy servers may add latency
  • Talk to your IT team about whitelisting GoVista domains

If the dashboard is slow only on your corporate network but fast at home, the issue is likely a VPN, proxy, or firewall. Ask your IT team to whitelist GoVista's domains for better performance.

Large Data Sets

Organizations with many devices or large content libraries may experience slower load times:

  • Use filters to narrow device and content lists
  • Use the scope selector to focus on a specific store or region
  • Archive old content that is no longer in use
  • Delete unused playlists and schedules

Dashboard-Specific Tips

  • Close unused tabs — Too many open tabs consume memory
  • Reduce date range — Analytics pages load faster with shorter date ranges
  • Use pagination — Avoid loading all items on one page

Hardware

  • Minimum 4 GB RAM recommended
  • Close other memory-intensive applications
  • Restart your computer if it has been running for a long time

Still Slow?

If the above steps do not help:

1. Check the GoVista status page for known issues 2. Try a different browser 3. Try from a different network 4. Contact support with details about what specifically is slow

Avoid using Internet Explorer or very old browser versions. GoVista requires a modern browser with JavaScript support and good rendering performance.
