Adobe Analytics

Outages, unplanned and otherwise can detrimental impacts on customers and their relationships within their organizations.  Although they do not occur often; there needs to be an automated system outage notification that can be emailed out to each client's supported users.  Clients should also have the option to opt-in or opt-out of receiving these notifications; but by default all outages that would prevent users from being able to access or utilize a products like SiteCatalyst, Discover, SearchCenter or Test & Target; would trigger a notification.

It would be great to segment on calculated metrics in the segment builder

I want to be able to compare periods on all reports in Site Catalyst. For example in "monthly unique visitors" it should be great if I can compare the summer months in 2010 and 2011 and see the difference. Is a common problem that you can´t get this in the same view/report.

I would love to have a "Returning Visits Ratio" report similar to the Returning Visits Report. So far I could not find a why to create my own (or better company wide) calculated metrics with [returning visits / visits].

Many of our users in our organisation use the Adobe Analytics suite on Macs and whenever they need to update Ad Hoc they are prevented from installing it due to corporate security policies, they end up having to get their security policies temporarily changed to allow the install. Our policies aren't very strict so I'm guessing a lot of Mac users have similar issues. There is a bit of software on Macs called Gatekeeper, by default this prevents software being installed if it's from an unidentified developer. If Ad Hoc was registered with Apple then this problem will go away. Here's a link to a brief article describing the issue/resolution: https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT202491

If I have one or two FTP accounts that I commonly send to, I'd like to be able to bookmark them for future use.  It would save me a lot of time when I end up having to rerun DW requests

In Ad Hoc Analysis, It would be good to have the ability to schedule a project to be delivered.Rather than schedule individual reports within the Project to be delivered.

Why is impossible to exclude the "none" value for all the reports from the admin, and we can exclude it from the graphs?It will be great to do this.

"As an administrator, I want to know the name and report suite ID of the processing rules I am manipulating directly on the processing rules page, so that I can avoid errors and confusion, especially when adjusting rules for IOS, Android, Windows10, XBOX, and BlackBerry report suites; as sometimes different developers introduce different defects on different devices."Core of the recommendation:I have a lot of suites because I have a lot of products. I use processing rules a lot to fix errors. I don't want to make them myself. A reassuring label, to identify the report suite that is getting manipulated while I am manipulating it, would go a long way to reduce paranoia and frequent exiting-out to the admin screen to make sure I'm really, really, in the right place.

Tie Reports & Alerts so they can be used & managed together.   I don't think this is a new idea but it bears repeating because the current Alerts are really lame (sorry!).   We need to know which Report created a given Alert, and which Alerts have been created for a given Report.   Currently we are managing the relationships in an Excel spreadsheet which is totally bogus.   And our users hate the Alert emails because they are missing info (like the metric) and they have nowhere to go to get more info, unless they happen to have the spreadsheet handy.   So including a link to the Report in the Alert would be a huge improvement.    Instead of enhancing the SiteCatalyst Alerts, maybe add Alerts to Discover because it's a better tool anyway.

Since there is 1000 Success Events available in Analytics Standard the Configuration page became totally unusable because of the complex table of form fields loading too long.Please, please, please, break-down this configuration into multiple pages so it loads in reasonable time.

It would be nice to copy calc metrics from one report suite to another, for example for prod to dev.

We would like to have visits and unique visitors metrics to be available on traffic correlation reports. Currently it provides only Instances.

Currently by mistake one user can remove all shared segments from other to which has access. It would be great if user or at least admin could have rights to restore deleted segments!

I'm trying to figure out which visitor ID is being used and while the debugger shows fid, vid, it doesn't show s_vi. Based on this post (https://marketing.adobe.com/resources/help/en_US/mcvid/mcvid_analytics.html) it would be nice to show in Debugger:1. vid2. aid (s_vi)3. mid4. fid5. other6. Visitor ID** This would be the actual visitor ID being used instead of fid or vid.

In the Segment Manager, it would be nice to have the "i" icon to quickly preview a segment's definition instead of having to click the segment name.

Since calculated metrics are associated with one report suite, it doesn't make sense to show the calc metrics for other report suites, especially since each project can only have one report suite. It gets confusing to the end-user when they see two calc metrics of the same name but only one returns numbers. 

My company enjoys the funnel perspective presented when you look at: Visits --> Unique Visitors --> Customer IDs But to automate this in a Report Builder report, is has become a manual process. As we advance up the Maturity Model for Analytics and identify the questions that we want answered we have now pushed the limits of what Excel and Report Builder can handle, as we well over 50,000 Cust IDs in a week, and when we want to break it down by our marketing channels and customer segments the 42 Report builder requests crash program. I need the number of unique Cust IDs over a time period at the aggregate level, not a list of all the cust ids. Also I find it incongruent that this is information I can extract the list of cust ids from the DW manually, but not in the console or especially report builder. But I am still left with a list to count, not a de-duped aggregate number. I would love to see the functionality added to report builder to count the number of unique occurrence of

I would like to be able to use custom events within the conditional statement in processing rules. For example, when a user fires off "event5", set the value "Downloaded White Papers" into propX.  Then I could enable pathing and get the pathing of events that Greco has talked about previously.

I would like to be able to share/push segments to other users after I create them without having to recreate them globally.  This would save extra work, having to recreate segments and also allow me to test the segment before all users have access to it.

If you are looking at a Metrics report (sorted by date), there is currently no way to reverse the order so you can see the most recent dates at the top.  If you have a long time period, this means scrolling all of the way to the bottom to see the information you care about the most (usually the most recent day, week, month, etc...).  I think the Graph shoudl remain as it is, but allow you to flip the data table order...

We have a custom fiscal calendar, as many users do.  We have an issue in that the year assigned to our calendars is off.  Ie:  Our fiscal calendar currently reflects in the UI as 2014, but it is actually FY 2015 for us.  We want a way to adjust the year being displayed to eliminate the confusion this is causing some of our users.Source image file 21272 not availableThe dates are all as expected, I would just want to change '2014 [4-5-4]' to 2015 [4-5-4].

Everywhere we have Visitors as a metric, we should also be able to pull in New Visitors and Repeat Visitors too!  That'd be really cool!

Apply calculated metric formula in the total row. Added pv/v to key metric report and it was totaled in the total row. Need to update the total row so the formula runs everywhere.  Or better yet - add PV/V as a standard metric to SiteCatalyst as you have for Discover!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you use the Admin Console to create/edit.manage global Calculated Metrics, for some reason, the formulas lose the friendly names (see below).  This is a horrible user experience unless you have memorized all of your Success Event Numbers!
