Overall Satisfaction with Chartbeat
[Chartbeat] is used across the whole organization but compartmentalized into smaller areas, one of which I run. It's principally valuable for real time information on our audience, and comparison with others, but also in terms of displaying loyal audience and various platforms. I also use Chartbeat historical to monitor performance.
- User friendly
- Always works
- Fast
- Ability to build dashboards including and excluding certain sections
- Visibility of social media post (Facebook mostly) rather than just referrer
- Improved suggestions - they can be weak
- Made us more instantly responsive to readers
- Given a better focus on loyalty
- Better understanding of platforms
[Charbeat] has had a behavioral impact on our organization. As a newspaper group, we have historically been tied to print deadlines- Chartbeat exemplifies a live organization with an audience waiting to be served. It also has a behavioral aspect in that people get used to a par performance - say 3,000 concurrents - and it keeps them focused when under-performing.
I haven't used or evaluated others but we use Google Analytics too. I find Chartbeat more user friendly - and rely on the live numbers more than in GA. However, for more qualitative data, over longer periods of time, I use GA because of the search functionality - and that we measure targets this way.
