SolarWinds Platform Web Analytics

Our web analytics platform is designed to help teams better understand and optimize user interactions within our software. It provides a unified solution for collecting behavioral data, delivering in-app guidance, and gathering user feedback.

Key capabilities include:

  • User Behavior Analytics: Tracks feature usage, user journeys, and engagement patterns to inform product decisions and identify areas for improvement.

  • In-App Guidance: Enables the creation of contextual walkthroughs, tooltips, and announcements to support onboarding and feature adoption.

  • Feedback Collection: Offers tools for capturing user sentiment through surveys and polls, helping teams validate ideas and prioritize enhancements.
