What is Dashboard?

What is Dashboard?
Dashboard is the graphical representation of the data generated by a report or multiple reports. Dashboard component types can be charts, tables, gauges, metrics, or other components that you can create with VisualForce.
You can add charts to your reports but dashboards give you more options and also the ability to add up to 20 charts and tables on one page for a quick view of multiple reports.
Below if an example of a dashboard. Here you can see each component (graph or table) is directly linked to a report. If you are interested the dashboard below was installed from the AppExchange and has a bunch of CRM Dashboards created by Salesforce, you can grab it here.
