Feature Guide: Insights

At a glance

Unlike Reports, Analytics are captured at both the Track and Playlist levels. There are two types of analytics captured:

• Recipients analytics
• Team analytics

When viewing analytics, you can adjust the period by using the Select period option in the top right corner of the page:

You can specify a date range by choosing a preset (This month, Last month, Last 30 days, Last 90 days, Last Year, This Year, All time) or setting a custom period:

Recipients analytics

These come from the recipients of your Tracks and Playlists to show how they are accessing your content.

Recipients analytics includes: 

• the number of Streams, Individual Downloads, and Playlist Downloads
• Most accessed playlists
  
• Most downloaded playlists
• Most streamed files
• Most downloaded files
  
• Most active recipients
  

Team analytics

These come from the Users in your DISCO to show how they are using your Tracks and Playlists.

Team analytics includes: 

• number of Tracks Added, Playlists Created, and Uploads Received
• Most played tracks and videos
• Most pitched files (these are the files included in the most Playlists in your DISCO)
  
• Most playlists created by team member

Limitations by plan

Users on both the Plus and Pro plans have access to both Recipients and Team analytics, and can see all of the same types of data.

The only difference is that Plus users will see a limited amount of analytics (whatever is currently displayed in each section), whereas Pro users can access all analytics by clicking the View more buttons in each section:

Using Reports, you can gather data about your Playlists and the Tracks within them.

At a glance

Reports are generated at the Playlist level and can be customized using basic reporting fields, Filters, and More Options to see things like:

• Playlists you've sent to specific Contacts
• Playlists that contain Tracks with specific metadata (e.g. Artist or Genre)

• Client Playlists
• and more!
