Motivation to write this article
The existing Top 20+ Admin Dashboards articles, most of them, are written by publishers with this bad habit of sniffing a lot of commercial apps in the content, without mention this aspect in the title.
I’m not saying this is good or bad, but is not obvious if the apps are free or not, just by reading the title. Well, this is not the case here. Let’s go!
