Administrator should be able to do some of the following things, because it frustrated me that as a heavy user, I need to contact clientcare for these little things. Enable PathingEnable Merchandising eVarHide a report suiteEnable Marketing Channel report I understand there are processing time/resource concern for things like pathing and Merchandising eVar, so perhaps just allow us of up to 10 prop for pathing, and 10 eVars for merchandising per report suite. 

Tracking requests being made over HTTP are now sent to a local (Australian) data centre, but HTTPS request are still sent to the USA, which is much, much slower. Can we have SSL data collection on local servers as well?

Would be good to track both flavours of IE, both the the Metro and Desktop versions as they are different enough to be treated as seperate entities.  Would be useful if this could be included in the standard browser report.

There is no way to currently automate the refresh of queries via report builder using macros. I have tried quite a few different ways and I am unable to make it work. If someone has a solution out there please pass it along.  Macros work perfectly with the excel client.

Currently there are only 4 Rule Types available in Classification Rule Builder: 1. Starts with2. Ends with3. Contains4. Regular Expression Can we can add 'Does not contains' as well to this list? It will allow us to group certain values that does not contains specified text. ThanksJM

The following message is incredibly frustrated after waiting 30+ minutes for ClientCare: "There are no agents available to chat with you right now. Please try again later." If ClientCare truly is a 24/7 service (Monday - Sunday: 24 Hours) then this can never be true.  I tend not to call because if I call I won't have a record of our discussion.  I'm willing to wait longer than the estimated amount, and I understand the estimated wait time can be difficult to get to since the complexity of a client's question will differ on a case by case basis.  While I don't like waiting 30+ minutes for ClientCare, I understand estimating optimal staffing isn't going to allow for a client's desired wait time for each interaction, but to boot me crushes my soul. I had a colleague tell me that the message was funny in a Dilbert sort of way when I told them about this message before.  Please help my sanity and allow me to wait as long as I'm willing to wait or just don't allow more people to enter the qu

I just discovered the forecasting feature in SC and got really excited and tried to read up and use the feature.  I turned on the feature and then went to see it in reports only to see no results.  I contacted Adobe support to hear the sad news that its currently a known bug and not working and worse yet that it may be removed completely as a feature.   We've been looking for way to be more proactive with analysis through SC and when we found this feature we were so hopeful so its disappointing to hear its being removed, if that is indeed the case.  Anomaly detection is a nice start to this but again its limited in that it looks back at data and can't give us current and/or future metrics. Being able to determine patterns and predict possible future outcomes and trends is something that we'd find very useful.  This not only helps us understand our customers, products and campaigns better but it also helps us see potential technical and technology stack issues.

It would be great to lock down any report suite depending on user or user groups. I have people in stores, other locations, etc... And they do not look at what RSID they are in upon login. This creates more wasted time and calls. So, it would be most awesome, to be able to lock down any RSID for any occasion. Thank you!

When you have several report suites with different names, for debugging reasons, it would be great to have a "quick jump" into a variable - independent of its name. For example, if you want to look up the variable "s.eVar3" which is named "Gender" in your report suite and you actually don't know its name, you need to get into the report suite settings to find out how this variable is named, before you can go into that report. It would be great, if one could simply type "eVar3" in the "Find Reports" (or "c3" for example) field and hit enter to open it. At the moment, we name the variables in ouor report suite e.g. "Gender (eVar3)", just to enable this function for us via a workaround. If it would be available per default, that would be great.

The site overview dashboareds would be much more useful if administrators could customize them and push them to all users. We can customize them now but we have to tell users to adopt them on an individual basis. That's very labor intensive and unlikely to happen. Some typical customizations I'd like to make are:1. Remove the search engine keywords reportlet (thanks google!)2. Update the Key Metrics reportlet with site-specific metrics instead of page views, visits and visitors3. Update the Report Suite Totals reportlet with site-specific metrics instead of page views, visits and visitors

As an Admin for SiteCatalyst im asked very often how to find shared dashboards. The people often use the searchbox in the main menu (dashboard/manage dashboards) to find a shared dashboard (see screenshot). But unfortunately the search is just going through the own dashboards. Shared dashboards cannot be searched. As we have a hughe number of shared dashboards it is hard to find something in the whole list. Please add new functionality to the search box which is marked in my screenshot. An please do the same for bookmarks. 

It would be great if we had the ability to segment visitors based on multiple value evar/prop instances. For example, I want to know how many of our users log into multiple accounts on our site, i.e. how many visitors are associated with multiple userIDs.  Something like: WHERE evar instances is > 1ANDevar values DO NOT MATCH 

Hi,Can we have the option to organize the dashboards alphabetically, by date, by creator....  This would be beneficial when dealing with 100's of shared dashboards.Regards

Is it possible to allow the user management sectionto a user without giving him/her the full Admin rights?In this way, we can assign all the user management tasks to our IT/helpdesk team so that they can take care of login related issues.Currently only Admins can manage users and Admins have access to all report suites. We have a lot of report suites and we dont want to share all those suites with IT team.

I really like the improved chart graphics that's been recently introduced in to Discover.  However, it's pretty frustrating that I can only plot 15 items/bars in a ranked report. Please can you consider extending this?  Ideally I'd like to be able to plot 100+ items. I'm guessing that the limitation is because you are concerned about not being able to display a label for each item? However, for what I want to use this for this wouldn't be a concern.

I need to be able to see the clickthrough action from start to successful conversion for successful conversion paths. Ideally all successful paths to conversion, but at least the top 10. In the current reporting structure. You can "guess" at pathing in various different reporting options. This does not give the desired result for 2 reasons. 1 it is limited to either 4 or 5 paths, and you have no way to identify if you are looking at the most successful paths to conversion or not. This is a very powerful feature, and I have used it in Coremetrics in previous lives. For example- If 23% of your conversion success came from customers going through the specific path of the "these specific 10 pages", it would be be beneficial to try and lead others down that path, as well as shorten the steps needed to get to the successful conversion paths. I did submit a support ticket with all of the detail for the different reports available and what the results return. They did confirm that what I am re

Love the new Real-Time report and we use it on our big screens so that everyone can see KPI metrics etc. We tend to follow what happens to different metrics in our office/working hours aka "last 8 hours". At the moment the max. time for real time reports are last 2 hours. Would be great if we could choose more hours for real time reports. We would like to use last 8 hours, but maybe someone would like to use real time reports up to last 12 or even last 24 hours? Real time reporting is much better and cooler than normal "hourly reports". Yes, we can always use API to make custom (real time) stats for our screens, but this always means works for scrum team and takes "too much" time. We would also like the possibility to choose few daily KPI metrics that would update daily and it would show like this: Yesterday 5000 visits and with smaller number +5% (and that +5% means that visit number is 5% higher visit number than previous last 7 days before "yesterday") etc. It's very powerful t

Once you enter the Admin Tools, let's say to share a dashboard, add a user, etc, there is no easy way to get back to the Main menu or the Favorites menu.  It's a very frustrating user interaction when you have to click several times to get back to the most common/used area of the product.  Please make access to these (the two icons: the SC icon and the Star icon) two menu items available from anywhere in the product. In the Admin Tools, this will mean pushing down the menu items so that the two icons are visible on the left hand menu at all times from within SiteCatalyst. It seems like a small thing but when you're in SC all day and moving back and forth between the Admin options and report options, it can save a lot of time and frustration.  As a workaround, I almost always have two windows of SC open, one for Admin, one for reporting.

We actively use the Marketing Channel Overview report. Now that we're on SiteCatalyst v15, we also are actively using segmentation, but segmentation is not available for the Marketing Channel Overview report, just the drilldown views. can this be added?  ALSO, make Marketing Channel Overview report available to be added to Dashboards! Thx!

In SiteCatalyst, you can easily view a previous period trendline overlayed on top of a trended chart. However, this is not possible in Discover. I would like this option to be able to see WoW , YoY, or other arbitrary date comparisons in visual form. 

It would be great if I could highlight line items within a report and then select to either keep or remove those selected items.  It would make the process much easier than trying to filter the report.  It could function like Tableau does.  I love being able to highlight the line items I'm interested in and getting rid of the "noise"...

Hi, Can you make the following ATM metadata available container ID (e.g. ZDEtYXZndGVjaG5vbG9naWVzLTU5MjktMjYwNi0=)container revision number (e.g. 1)and accesible via code inside Adobe Tag Manager to store that information e.g. inside a prop. It would be very useful for tracking if a new revision had any impact on any metrics of interest. Thank you

For the scenario where I run a report in Site Catalyst using a segment, and then run another report, I'd like the segment to hold, still be there, keep it as is. Desired behavior: When running another report, keep the segment there, as is.Current behavior: When running another report, the segment goes away and defaults back to "All Visits (no segment)."

A simple and handy feature when you have dozens of lists and people, helps the grouping of individuals and distribution lists.Thanks,Raphael

Currently there seems to be no way to setup a Marketing Channel processing rule relevant to Organic Searches where the keyword was 'Keyword Unavailable'. Ideally it would be good to see the tool allow us to set a different value (ie. the landing page pagename) in this scenario into the Marketing Channel detail value.
