What are the key differences between Agent Home and the legacy dashboard?

Agent Home offers several enhancements over the legacy dashboard, including real-time updates for messaging tickets, smart sorting, and visibility of CCs and followers. Unlike the legacy dashboard, which was largely uncustomizable, Agent Home provides a more dynamic and collaborative experience. It also supports filtering by ticket status and channel, and offers a focused view of tickets assigned to you.
