# macOS and Windows Experience Comparison

macOS experience and performance is a dashboard solution designed to help IT teams monitor key performance and Digital Employee Experience (DEX) metrics specific to **macOS** devices. It offers a side-by-side comparison with **Windows** to support informed, persona-based provisioning decisions across the organization.
