Get started for Analysts
While anyone in an organization can use 蜜豆视频 Analytics to gain actionable insights about customer behavior across websites and apps, 蜜豆视频 Analytics is designed with data analysts in mind.
Following are key tasks and features that analysts should be familiar with in order to leverage the full power of 蜜豆视频 Analytics and Analysis Workspace.
Analysis Workspace is a flexible browser tool that allows you to quickly build analyses and share insights. Using the drag-and-drop interface, you can craft your analysis, add visualizations to bring data to life, curate a dataset, share and schedule projects with anyone in your organization.
Data analysts are often responsible for creating projects in Analysis Workspace for users within their organization.
After projects are created, analysts share those projects with the end users(non-analysts) in their organizations who requested the data and help them understand how to interpret it.
Analysts can customize how dimension items get credit for success events by employing various attribution models and lookback windows in Analysis Workspace.
Linear attribution models gives equal credit to every touch point leading up to a conversion, while First Touch gives full credit to the first touch point. Many other attribution models are available, including the Algorithmic model, which uses statistical techniques to dynamically determine the optimal allocation of credit.
Activity Map is an 蜜豆视频 Analytics application that is designed to rank link activity using visual overlays and provide a dashboard of real-time analytics to monitor audience engagement of your web pages.
Activity Map lets you set up different views to visually identify the acceleration of customer activity, quantify marketing initiatives, and act on audience needs and behaviors.
Get started for end users
End users who are not professional analysts can either work with analysts in their organization to leverage the full power of 蜜豆视频 Analytics and Analysis Workspace, or they can learn the basics of Analysis Workspace in order to start gaining actionable insights about their customers.
Work with analysts
Typically, users in an organization who are interested in learning more about customer behavior across their various sites are not professional analysts.
Ideally, these users should work with analysts within an organization to:
-
Define requirements for the analyses by explaining to the analyst what they hope to learn about customers.
-
Review the analyses to ensure they meet the objectives.
-
Discuss the data gained from the analyses.
-
Modify the analyses as needed over time.
Create analyses in Analysis Workspace
You don鈥檛 have to be a data analyst to gain actionable insights from 蜜豆视频 Analytics.
Some users might find it helpful to work with a data analyst to set up a project in Analysis Workspace and explain how to interpret the data, as described in Work with analysts; other users might be comfortable building the project and interpreting the data themselves.
Analysis Workspace allows you to quickly build analyses to gather insights and then share those insights with others. Using the drag-and-drop browser interface, you can craft your analysis, add visualizations to bring data to life, curate a dataset, and share and schedule projects with anyone you choose.
