Conversion Analytics is a report type within dashboards that allows you to analyze conversions between two actions (from A to B) over time. This feature provides deeper insights into user behavior and conversion patterns that were not previously possible with traditional funnels.
Key Benefits
- Track conversion metrics over time : Monitor conversion counts, conversion rates, and average time to convert over time.
- Compare conversion metrics across specific groups (eg. countires, platforms, devices..) to identify conversion patterns.
- Track average time to convert for critical user journeys: Did the recent search functionality enhancements reduce the time users take to find and purchase products?
- Measure the impact of your initiatives over time and prove ROI to shareholders
- Create conversion alerts to proactively monitor performance before it impacts your funnel.
