People Metric

What could cause the People metric to differentiate from Unique Visitors? Theoretically, they should be the same.

Thanks!

Hi Caroline,

Welcome to the Analytics Community!

People metric basically de-duplicates your Unique visitors over multiple devices. Its same as the unique visitors, if the visitor is using just one device. This page explains in good detail how it is calculated https://marketing.adobe.com/resources/help/en_US/mcdc/mcdc-people.html

I hope this helps. Please introduce yourself to the community here 

Thanks.
