The Segment Analyzer Insight displays the filling level for profile properties of a specific segment of customer or visitors. The information is shown in a circular graph.
The Segment Analyzer insight and its controls
Below is an example of a Segment Analyzer graph:
In the center of the graph is the number of profiles within the current selection. Around the center are rings divided into customer segments. Each segment represents a profile property. Hover over a particular segment to see the name of the profile properties in that ring and which percentage of the profiles have a value for the property, the "fill rate".
The chart is constructed as follows:
- Determine the number of profiles based on the current selection. If nothing has been selected, use all profiles.
- Determine all profile properties and their fill rate.
- Disregard all profile properties with a fill rate of 0%.
- Sort the profile properties based on their fill rate and place them in a ring accordingly. The inner ring holds the properties with the highest fill rates, the outer ring the properties with the lowest fill rate.
- The number of rings is configurable – profile property fill rates differ depending on the number of rings selected:
Number of rings Ring 1 (inner) Ring 2 Ring 3 Ring 4 4 100% - 75% 75% - 50% 50% - 25% 25% - 0% 3 100% - 67% 67% - 33% 33% - 0% 2 100% - 50% 50% - 0% Rings may turn out to be empty if there are no profile properties with a matching fill rate. The chart in the example has 3 rings. Hovering above ring 2 highlights eight profile properties that have a fill rate between 67% - 33%.
- Each ring contains the profile properties with a matching fill rate as explained above. The chart in the example shows that the highlighted profile property "Visited Sites" has a fill rate of 69%.
- Labels can be selected in the configuration, in which case the ring segment of a profile property will be colored by its label. If the profile property has no label, it will be colored blue. The example shows a chart without any labels configured, so all profile properties are colored in shades of blue, where inner rings are a darker shade than the outer rings.
