Session Analytics
Reviewing your analytics can give you a better understanding of your audience's behavior. The results in your analytics can also determine what approach and adjustments you need to make on your next event.
In this section about Session Analytics, we discussed the data you see on your Analytics Page.
Below, we will discuss the downloaded reports from your Analytics Page and Sessions & Speakers tab.
Note: Viewing and engagement data may appear blank or show as not applicable for in-person sessions as that data is only applicable to virtual and hybrid sessions.
