Fallout visualizations let you:

  • Perform side-by-side comparisons of two different filters in the same report.
  • Drag and drop (and rearrange) funnel steps (touchpoints).
  • Mix and match values from different dimensions and metrics.
  • Create a multi-dimensional fallout report.
  • Identify where customers go immediately after falling out.

Fallout displays conversion and fallout rates between each step or touchpoint in a sequence.

For example, you can track a person’s fallout points during a purchase process. Just select a beginning touchpoint and a conclusion touchpoint, and add intermediate touchpoints to create a website navigation path. But you can also do multi-dimensional fallouts.

Choose between Fallout, Flow, and Journey canvas visualizations

The Fallout visualization has similarities with the Flow visualization and the Journey canvas visualization.

Understand the differences

Various visualizations in Customer Journey analytics are designed to analyze the journeys you provide to your customers.

Use the following information to choose the visualization that best meets your needs.

Function
Journey canvas
Fallout
Flow
Predefined sequence of pages
Yes
Combines predefined and exploratory analysis. The eventual path is used when using predefined nodes on the path (visitors are counted as long as they eventually move from one predefined node to the other). The immediate (not eventual) next nodes can also be shown.
Yes
The path can be an eventual path or can be constrained to the next touchpoint
No
Exploratory sequence of pages (ad hoc analysis)
Yes
Combines predefined and exploratory analysis. The eventual path is used when using predefined nodes on the path (visitors are counted as long as they eventually move from one predefined node to the other). The immediate (not eventual) next nodes can also be shown.
Limited
Allows you to right-click and view immediate fallout in a Freeform table.
Yes
Exploratory analysis only. Always within one dimension instance between nodes. This means that each node shows the immediate (not eventual) next touchpoint along the path.
Shows where people left (fell out) and continued through (fell through)
Yes
Shows for both predefined and exploratory journeys
Yes
Shows predefined journeys
Yes

When to use Fallout

Both Fallout and Journey canvas visualizations are useful for analyzing:

  • Conversion rates through specific processes on your site (such as a purchase or registration process).
  • General, wider-scope traffic flows: Of the people who visited the home page, this flow shows how many performed a search. And then how many of them eventually looked at a specific item.
  • Correlations between events on your site. Correlations show what percentage of people who looked at your privacy policy went on to purchase a product.

Fallout visualizations are best suited for:

  • Fallout analysis involving journeys with a predefined sequence of pages and a single entry point and path. (Use Journey canvas for journeys with multiple entry points and paths.)

  • Journeys where you need to perform side-by-side comparisons of two different filters in the same report.

Use the table above to understand the differences between Journey canvas, Fallout, and Flow visualizations.
