# View Based System, Backup Data, Additional Data Points

Pricing in senior living is complex—communities, care types, and ownership groups often need different slices of data to make the right decision. The challenge is that competitive shop data is broad, and not every data point is equally relevant in every pricing conversation. Without the ability to tailor what’s shown, operators risk presenting too much information or the wrong comparisons, making it harder to act with confidence.

Further’s View-based system solves this by allowing you to **create custom, saved views** of your pricing data. Whether you’re preparing for an ownership presentation, analyzing a specific care type, or monitoring competitors, you can tailor the data to the decision at hand.

## What It Does & How It Works

The View-based system gives you total control over how you see and share your pricing data.

* **Create unlimited views** with custom filters for communities, competitors, care types, room types, or data sources.
* **Add widgets** to visualize pricing, fees, occupancy, incentives, SWOT scores, maps, photos, and more.
* **Customize layouts** by resizing, rearranging, or making widgets full or half screen.
* **Save and reuse** views so you can track changes over time as new shop data comes in.
* **Share externally** with ownership groups, regionals, or communities via email.
* **Add notes** directly to widgets for context, data adjustments, or explanations.
