Puppet Explorer and PuppetBoard are both superior to the Puppet Dashboard.
Puppet dashboard is in community support, but this list is full of people
having trouble installing it. I would highly recommend using one of the
other tools.

What the Puppet Dashboard does do that the other tools do not do is ENC
functionality. I think there is a space for an open source lightweight ENC
to be written for organizations to use and hack on.

Thanks,
Spencer
