Dynamic date comparison

Hello,

We used to use another analytical solution to do our analyses. Adobe Analytics allows a much finer analysis than your main competitor. And that's bravo.

On the other hand, you lack a major functionality compared to your competitors: it is impossible today to compare dates in a dynamic way.

Example :

I want to compare a period

01/01/2018

18/01/2018

versus last year

I can use your "compare date period" feature and I will then have the same date versus year-1 namely 01/01/2017 to 18/01/2017

but if I change the date in the main panel to put

18/01/2018

30/01/2018

My comparison column will then remain on 01/01/2017 to 18/01/2017

So it's a disaster for the analyses and I don't see myself updating my tables every time I want to do an analysis.

Can you therefore propose a functionality allowing to have a checkbox in the main calendar with the mention :

- comparison versus last year

- comparison versus last month

And this in a dynamic way

Thanks

I'm seeing date range segments in Adobe Analytics workspace broken - not reporting 'last week' or 'last month' correctly and somehow now being influenced by the date range on your workspace report - this has broken all of our reporting.

Anyone know whats going on

@siddhantparashar123 We released relative panel date ranges in February of this year which should address the use case proposed in this idea. More info here.
