WordPress White Label
This is the first thing you should do in WordPress Dashboard before start cusotmization. You need to change WordPress default Logo on Dashboard, Login Page, powered by WordPress text in Footer.
Custom Dashboard Widget
It's recommended to remove all unwanted Dashboard Widgets and add some necessary Custom Dashboard Widget. For example, you can add Google Analytics widget in your Dashbaord, it will help you to check stats when you login to your panel. You don't have to visit Google analytics to check your stats.
Design Welcome Widget
I think Welcome Widget is not only for Welcoming your users who logged into your Dashboard. It can be used as a notice box. You can hang your important updates in this Welcome Widget area. After checking the notice your users able to dismiss this.
WordPress Login customizer
You must input your logo in the WordPress Login panel. You are free to set your website title too. Then make sure to put a nice background image or color or slideshow or video which express your branding.
Admin Column
If you like to beautify your WordPress Post, Page, Post types then Admin Column will help you. Remove all unwanted column from any post type and add your necessary column. We can easily hide admin columns from "Screen" option, but when you use Admin Column manager plugin like WP Adminify - you can easily add new column from advanced custom field, metabox, pods framework. Also it allow you to cusotmize the width for each column.
Admin Page
Wondering to put a dedicated "Notice Box" page in your WordPress Dashboard? Using WP Adminify, Custom Admin Page, Admin Page Framework plugin you can easily create unlimited custom pages to WordPress admin Dashboard. All plugin comes with very similar feature but WP Adminify will help you to input custom CSS/JS inside your admin page and hide your pages from specific user roles.
That's all the basic of WordPress Dashboard Customization. If you are looking for specific Dashboard personalization feature then you can visit WordPress plugin repo and search with your feature. But if you are seeking for a complete solution to customize your dashboard, then I recommend to check WP Adminify.
