8 Great Material Admin Dashboards To Use In Your Project

Looking through the admin template market you can easily conclude that this market is saturated. It’s observed in the number of templates, the amount of developers and (what is of the most important) a bunch of articles of «Best templates …(and here year, description or whatever goes)». And the amount of template becomes bigger and bigger every year. After reading several articles you may find out that to remember the name of the template you have liked is not (just believe us, really “not”) an easy task (of course, if you keep a template page in a browser tab it’s much easier, but don’t forget that RAM is limited and your browser may already keep 40+ tabs). 

 – Maybe it’s Admin Press template? No-no, the template I liked doesn’t have a brutal man on standard profile… 

– Ok, maybe it is JustDo template? Well… Hm…. I don’t remember that I had to choose one of ten layouts to see an admin panel.

Furthermore, in order to reach more audience developers try to make their admin templates universal and thus, paradoxically, we have a bunch of templates where you can customize almost every element of design with a decent-size «design customizer», starting from layouts and header colors, ending with side overlay and arrangement of the content on a dashboard. In the pursuit of universality it’s easy to lose the idea of the template that separates it from the others. In that case, the template becomes «one of» instead of being «the One».
