# Next Experience administrator start options

As an administrator, you can configure where users start when they log in to ServiceNow.

## Determine the start page

The start page that you configure should address your needs and the needs of your organization. Next Experience default landing pages show visualizations that you can select to address immediate tasks. Dashboards and configurable workspaces can provide more focused information.

## Options

-   **Next Experience default landing page**

    The default landing page provides information to help orient you to your tasks. Variants of this page are available, depending on your setup. For more information, see [Exploring your Next Experience default landing page](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/platform-user-interface/exploring-your-next-experience-homepage.md).\[Omitted image "ne-landing-page-admin.png"\] Alt text: Next Experience default landing page.

-   **Custom Next Experience landing page**

    You can provide users the information that they need to start working by creating custom Next Experience landing pages for different audiences. For more information, see [Create a Next Experience landing page](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/platform-user-interface/create-next-experience-landing-page.md).

-   **Configurable workspace home**

    Any page within a configurable workspace can be the start page. For more information about configurable workspace options, see [Configuring Configurable Workspace](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/platform-user-interface/c_set-up-configurable-workspace.md).

-   **Admin-selected landing page**

    The admin can set a default landing page for all users that may override a user-selected page. This option can be any page inside a workspace, but also a classic responsive dashboard. The admin can also include role-based logic to direct users to configurable workspaces. For more information, see

-   **Responsive dashboards**

    You can start with a responsive dashboard created in the classic environment to use an existing dashboard that isn't available in a configurable workspace.
