Article summary

Yes, Product Analytics can be used without the Whatfix DAP platform. Product Analytics provides insights into end-user behavior on the product or application without the need to create Whatfix DAP content such as Flows, Beacons, and more.

How can I get started with Product Analytics?

  • Ensure that Whatfix is deployed on your application. It can be done using the JavaScript embed or the browser extension delivery modes.

  • Before getting started with Product Analytics, ensure that you enable Smart Context and other related configurations on your account. For more information, contact support@whatfix.com.

  • Enable User identification.

  • Get access to the Whatfix Analytics dashboard.

    • The Whatfix dashboard consists of the Whatfix Guidance and Whatfix Analytics dashboards.

    • The Whatfix Guidance dashboard enables you to create and manage Whatfix DAP content. The Whatfix Analytics dashboard enables you to configure and manage your Insights and Dashboards. For more information on how to access Product analytics, see How can I access the Product Analytics dashboard?

    • By default, you can access the Whatfix Guidance dashboard even if you don’t want to use the Whatfix DAP product.

  • Install Whatfix Studio.

    • The Studio extension enables you to create DAP content, such as Flows, Beacons, and Smart Tips. However, if you’re using only Product Analytics, use Studio to create User Actions and Event Attributes.

    • Even if you haven’t installed Studio, you can get page-level analytics data using the Page view event. This does not require setting up of User Actions. Whatfix enables you to view metrics such as the top URLs visited and the number of users logging in to the application. Also generate daily, weekly, or monthly data reports.

    What can I do with Product Analytics?

  • Track end-user behavior and interactions on the product or application using User Actions and Event Attributes.

    You have to publish User Actions and Event Attributes from the Whatfix Guidance dashboard for them to be live on the application. For more information, see Push all Whatfix content and widgets to Production.

  • Analyze end-user behavior patterns using Trend Insights.

  • Analyze process completion and drop-offs using Funnel Insights.

  • Analyze how end users are navigating your application and the paths they take to complete tasks using User Journey.

    Whatfix enables you to use Page view-based User Journeys to analyze how end users are navigating on your application based on URLs instead of User actions. For more information, contact support@whatfix.com.

  • Visualize the Insights as reports using Dashboards.

  • Group users based on similar characteristics using Cohorts.

  • Make informed decisions based on the data patterns.
