Adobe Analytics

In the latest Chrome browser versions a page may be fully loaded and rendered (incl. SiteCatalyst code) before the user actually requests the page, which can lead to distorted engagement metrics. For example, if you search for "omniture.com" on Google, you can see in Chrome's task manager that the Omniture homepage is being prerendered in the background (screenshot attached). It would be great if Omniture would provide a JavaScript plug-in that makes use of Google's Page Visibility API (http://code.google.com/intl/fi/chrome/whitepapers/pagevisibility.html) to deal with this issue.

As we can do now, we really need to be able to edit label for metrics and variables in freeform table.We name metric and variable with technical words, but for business team it's absolutely not appreciated.

A little too much effort was put into making it pretty, and not enough effort into making it practical for analysts.It feels like it tried to be the best of both worlds, but it is below average with either…. average dashboarding abilities in tool, and less than average ability to do analysis.Getting rid of Ad Hoc, and rather than building off-of and enhancing the platform most clients use for business analysis, is a mistake.Usability:It feels like it is built with touchscreens in mind... Analysts don't work like that. Real Data Scientists would laugh at you outright.  We need speed, keyboard shortcuts, and to be able to construct data sets quickly, rather than pretty drag-n-drops.It's slow, in that everything takes a lot of clicks to get through. You can't even effectively copy-paste (it works sporadically).  I can make a trended chart in half the time in Excel, with less work on my part.Often times, I need to do my analysis in other tools, such as excel, R, Python, etc. 200 rows doesn

Make it easier to compare time periods. For example, setting up automated (or on demand) week/week, month/month or YTD compared to same period prior year.Problems with current functionality:- You can select "Last Week" or "Last Month" but no way to indicate prior week/month. i.e. You have to use the arbitrary date range option which is either fixed (in which case it won't update) or rolling (in which case it will only be correct the same day of the week/month you created it)- The change column is calculated as {comparison time period} - {current time period} which is backwards. For example, if you had a million visits in March and 200K in February, it would shows the change to be -800K instead of an increase of 800K. (The work around is to reverse the periods, but that's completely non-intuitive and the export file names show the wrong period. i.e. The March 2011 will be labeled February 2011)- There's no way to show the biggest gainers or losers without exporting and sorting offline.

It would be great if we could include a period 0 (day 0, week 0, etc.) within a cohort table for us to better understand the significance of the subsequent periods.

Within the custom date range creator, I'd like to be able to create a set of ranges at my time period opposed to needing to create if as a conditional segment.

Rather than solely being lat/long or IP based, I'd like to be able to point at an eVar, classification or custom attribute that contains a ZIP code (I can see how city/state would be problematic because of formatting). This would be good for mapping known customers or tools like a store locator.

When using the fallout report, segments applied at the top of the panel get applied if criteria for any one of the checkpoints within the visual are met.  This is different than Adhoc which applies the segment inline to each checkpoint.  Please include a toggle for applying segments inline or overall.  The only way to mirror adhoc is to apply each segment inline within the checkpoint, but then segment comparison functionality within workspace no longer applies.

Hi. Increasingly we're seeing a lot of traffic from mobile browsers that are part of a content sharing app. This can be the Facebook, Twitter, Google Search app, Instapaper, etc. Here's some examples: This is the user-agent data for the Facebook app browser for iPhone:Mozilla/5.0 (iPad; CPU OS 6_1_3 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/536.26 (KHTML, like Gecko) Mobile/10B329 [FBAN/FBIOS;FBAV/5.6;FBBV/144493;FBDV/iPad3,1;FBMD/iPad;FBSN/iPhone OS;FBSV/6.1.3;FBSS/2; FBCR/;FBID/tablet;FBLC/en_US;FBOP/0] This is one for the Twitter app browser for iPhone:Mozilla/5.0 (iPad; CPU OS 6_1_3 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/536.26 (KHTML, like Gecko) Mobile/10B329 Twitter for iPhone 

It would be great for admin users to be able to delete DW request that have either failed or completed, directly from the UI

At least once a week, I'll get a request from a client or colleague asking for metrics on a specific set of product IDs/page IDs/object keys. Or, we'll release a feature on our platform that impacts a subset of products (by ID) and I'll want to make a segment. Currently, my two options are:Drag a container into the segment builder for every.single.object and use "exact" matches (this is a grand waste of time and makes report performance sluggish)Use the "contains any of", list every ID out delimited by a space, and hope that my IDs don't partially match other IDs (like "123" matching "12345") What I would prefer:Use the "matches" operator and list every criteria out, pipe-delimited: "123|124|150|180" Right now, the "matches" operator allows for wildcards:https://marketing.adobe.com/resources/help/en_US/analytics/segment/seg_operators.htmlWhy not show regex a little love and support "or" operators, too? Or go whole hog and allow for regular expressions? This has been a feature of GA sin

This is what is says in Adobe Help:Sort Ascending or DescendingYou can sort the requests listed in the Request Manager in ascending or descending order.Click on the columns names in the table header. The column shows the sort order by displaying a triangle icon in the table header. If the triangle is pointing down, sort order is descending (for alphanumeric data, 9-1 and Z-A), while if pointing up, the sort order is ascending (for alphanumeric data, 1-9 and A-Z). The default sort order is ascending. This feature does not work. It is essential to have.

Currently, the .csv export from a dashboard includes only data that is presented in tables, not data behind graphs and charts for which the table has been hidden.I believe it is more logical and it would be more useful if the .csv contained all the data that is used in the dashboard (as you would have in an Excel file a tab with the graphs, and a tab with the source tables).I would like to send a dashboard that is as visual as possible, I find that tables tend to overload it. Unfortunately, if I send a dashboard to a client without the table, s/he always comes back asking how to retrieve all the data.At the moment, as a workaround, I unhide all tables in the dashboard, download the .csv, and send that along with a link to the dashboard... But then the client is not able to have the data if s/he changes something (time range, segment, etc....).

An option to invert the conditional color behavior would be beneficial.For example, a negative change in a metric like bounce rate would be a good thing and would be better suited for green rather than red and vice versa.

Currently within Reports & Analytics and Report Builder current data is an option however in Workspace it's not. Current data is incredibly valuable to us but the flexibility within Reports & Analytics isn't sufficient however Workspace would. I'd like to see an option to enable current data in Workspace as well.

Return Frequency / Days since last visit (discover) - Have both metrics show 'first time' visits so that total breakdown visits = all visits

Workspace is now our first analytics tool and we have a lot of project for more than a year now.Some of our project have been built with a fixed start date and a rolling end date (this is typical for a product launch for example of for a campaign that runs for a few weeks).When you want to come back to such project 1 year later to make a new version of it or check the data for the full campaign, it barely loads and I guess it's just because of the super-long reporting window that doesn't make sense anymore.An easy workaround would be to allow edition of project dates from Project Manager projects list without opening itAnother interesting option (maybe not as easy) would be to had a max-date as an option for a fixed-start/rolling-end reporting window project.For example we could have another option next to "(none)" to specify that max-date is in this case "December 1st 2016" just to ensure I'm not pulling 13 months of data when I reopen my project a year later to build a new project fo

Add support to change settings (in freeform tables) with one click to all columns or maybe even all panels. Now I have to e.g. disable backgrounds and percentages for every single column one by one and that takes so much time when using large tables with many columns. I'm sure there are many others battling with this clicking process.

DigitalPulse Debugger shows both fid and vid as "Visitor ID" in Friendly Format. It would be nice to tell them apart, for example, "Visitor ID (fid)" and "Visitor ID (vid)".Source image file 21331 not available

Please add the option to schedule quarterly reports in addition to the other time periods. Thank you.

Would love to have the ability to click on "Exits" in Flow visualizations. Right now, it's not possible to click the item currently being hovered:Would be super-valuable for digging further into dropoff via Trending, Segmentation, and Breakdowns.

when using the function (within a calculated metric) in analytics workspace, the preview window looks like this:I would love to see instead of "dimension" the dimension i have used in the calculated metric, eg. "site sections" in this example.Requested solution: replace "dimension" by the used dimension

At first, I thought sending question to ClientCare but since this probably is a feature and not a bug, I decided to wrote in idea exchange. In Workspace you can right-click on a component and choose to add tags. Love this feature, you can tag your favorite KPI variables and events etc. I loved this feature even more when I noticed that other users can see my tags also. This way it so much easier to find what you looking for (at least for new users and product owners that are not so familiar with different components). But now I noticed one strange thing or is this a good thing? Any comments would be nice to have before I agree even my own idea to “protect” tags. Report Suite A and I tagged eVar16 variable (search term category) as “domain.com kpi” tag. If then another user goes to totally different report suite B in workspace and he happens to search eVar16 variable in his report suite, and it could be e.g. “product information”. This is important to him and he wants to tag it and he m

It would be great to have the ability to edit headlines and not only text boxes. In addition the option to upload images would be great since we have a lot of dashboards for AB-tests. Uploading screenshots for the different versions would be very helpful.
