# Vizpads (Explore)

Visualizing data is an essential part of making sense of it. Tellius offers **Vizpads**, which are interactive dashboards that let users illustrate their data by adding visualizations, colors, and other interactive elements. Users can create Vizpads by selecting a Business View, adding and organizing interactive content, and then saving their work.

* Consider whether all the content should be available in one Vizpad, or on one tab, or spread across multiple Vizpads and tabs.
* Limit the number of visualizations on each Vizpad to the minimum possible to prevent performance issues, especially with complex chart types and many filter options.
* If you're building Vizpads with multiple Business Views, designate one Business View as the primary
* For quick access and better visibility, ensure that your critical charts are located at the top of the Vizpad. 
* To save time, consider cloning existing Vizpads instead of building each one from scratch. This ensures continuity and uniformity across multiple Vizpads.
* To create a structured and clean Vizpad, organize your additional visualizations into distinct tabs. 
* Use the global filter when you need to apply the same filter across the entire Vizpad. However, if the filter is intended for a specific chart, opt for the local filter. Understanding both types of filters will help you manage your visualizations more effectively and tailor them to your specific needs.
* Use the **Favorite** icon to select up to 5 of your most regularly used Vizpads that can be easily accessed from the left navigation pane.
* Save or move Vizpads into **Projects** to organize content that can easily be shared with users or user groups.
