Overall Satisfaction with Adobe Analytics
We use Adobe analytics across the whole organization. We have a dedicated analytics department that works with individual brands on understanding their data, but everyone has the ability to view their brand's information on their own. The analytics team uses the software to perform both routine and ad hoc analysis of on our brands as requests come in. Routine analysis consists of weekly and monthly reporting. Ad hoc analysis may come in the form of more esoteric questions like, "What is the lifespan of a piece of content as measured by unique visitor engagement?"
- Analysis Workspace - The ability to manipulate any out-of-the-box report to suit your needs.
- Report Builder - The ability to pull data from your report suites and send them to an Excel file.
- Custom Variables - The ability to send string/numerical data that fits your needs. Allows for more custom tracking.
- It would be nice to have video explanations for what changes are made during the software updates, and why they were made.
- The Date Range Comparison tool can look extremely cluttered if you use more than one metric.
- It would be nice to know the exact number of line items there are in a report without having the go to the last paginated page.
- Adobe Analytics has given us an immense amount of custom tracking. This is invaluable.
From its original namesake (Omniture), the strength of the brand was a big factor. Also the idea of having dedicated support staff 24/7. More visually appealing. More custom tools (Analysis Workspace, Discover, Report Builder).
