Discover Confluence Analytics…Freshly Redesigned 📈✨

[#1]

Hi new-to-Confluence family! 👋

I'm Elsie, a PM at Confluence. I'd like to introduce you to Confluence Analytics – a set of features we launched back in 2019 to help teams understand content performance, user activity, and collaboration across their Confluence pages, spaces, and site (available on Confluence Premium and Enterprise Plans).

But we’ve heard that its current UI and controls made it challenging to derive actionable insights from your data. That's why we're thrilled to announce a major redesign of Confluence Analytics! 🥳 

(FYI we're gradually rolling out, so you may not see it until next week)

Five small but mighty UX improvements for a BIG difference:

	1️⃣ Page Analytics features new summary cards Now you can get an instant snapshot of key metrics,such as total and unique number of views, so you can quickly understand page performance at a glance – no mental maths needed.
	2️⃣ One-click time period filters Quickly check data for a specific time period with a single click– helping you save time and effort when analyzing data.
	3️⃣ Now, every data table has a search bar Use the search bar to easily filter and find the analytics for specific users, spaces, and content of interest. From chaos to insight, effortlessly.
	4️⃣ Sleeker data tables and charts! Modernized look and feel for more dynamic, visually pleasing charts and tables as you use Confluence Analytics.
	5️⃣ Enjoy a snappier experience ⚡️

Note on Attachments tab: We temporarily removed it due to low usage and to reduce complexity of the redesign. We plan to reintroduce it later with Embedded Links analytics, which you've told us is more useful 🤝

Analytics in Action: Four Ways to Use It Today

This redesign is just the beginning of making Confluence Analytics more insightful and actionable. While we have ambitious plans for the future, there's already so much you can do today. Here are four ideas to jumpstart incorporating data smarts into your everyday work in Confluence!

1️⃣ Check if key stakeholders have read your page ✅ Use Page analytics to see who has viewed your page and devise strategic sharing tactics to ensure everyone is informed.
2️⃣ Stay in-the-know about hot topics among your team and stakeholders 🔥 Use Space analytics to identify the most popular content in any space. This feature helps you stay informed about what is currently important to your team and stakeholders.
3️⃣ Report on your org's Confluence usage 📊 As an IT champion, use Site analytics to get a birds-eye overview of user activity, space activity, and search trends in Confluence. Export this data for in-depth analysis to make informed administrative decisions.
4️⃣ Use real-world data to optimize your org knowledge 🧠 Use Site analytics to track popular employee searches and frequent unsuccessful searches.  Through this you can identify knowledge gaps to fill and opportunities to make your org knowledge more helpful and accessible!

Two more ways to use Analytics, both are in play in my organization.

1. Recognize and reward content champions. See who your contributors are and who are the consumers and evangelize their success to breed some healthy competition. Every additional creator and consumer increases the value of your instance!
2. Determine which content may be stale and require review for updating or archiving. Spaces and pages that lack visitors may be outdated and need to be archived, or may just need a polish to make them current and relevant once again.
