We’ve just updated the files on our site to our latest official release, Logaholic Web Analytics 2.5.
Many little improvements and enhancements make this release even easier to use.
One major change is that the software is now multi-lingual, so you may choose which language you want to see Logaholic in. (Well, just English and Dutch for now, but if you want to help us translate Logaholic into your language, please read this.)
Enhancements to the user interface include:
- Improved menu navigation
Easier, faster access and more consistency throughout the application. The ‘action menu’ is now available on many more items, so you can jump and drill through your stats like never before. - Sorting galore
All report tables now have sortable columns. (We love you jQuery) - Dynamic helper menus
While completing forms, you now get a helper menu showing possible input based on your stats, whether it be keywords, pages, referrers or almost anything else. - Introducing Workspace
A great improvement that will keep track of the reports you visit and put them all together on one dashboard screen so you can easily compare and analyze multiple reports with multiple settings and segmentation at the same time.
Trust me, it rocks 🙂
This release is mainly the result of feedback we received over the last few months. Thanks to all the customers who participated in our feedback survey, I hope we have a few new features that you will ‘enjoy’.
Phones, Feeds, Segments and more:
- Mobile Browser Report
iPhone vs Blackberry. Find out which mobile devices are visiting your site and which ones matter. We’ve also updated overall browser detection. - Feeds and Feedburner
RSS/XML Feed urls are now reported separately from pages, and not counted as ‘human’ visitors towards your website visitor stats. Plus, if you use Feedburner, you can also get your Feedburner stats in Logaholic. - New Graphs and Trends
More graphs have been added to the Today dashboard, which now has a little widget that enables you to switch quickly between essential graphs. Also, check out the Search Trends report to see the big search engines battle it out. - Full time zone support
We’ve extended timezone support in this version. You can now set the reporting and collecting timezones separately for any profile. - Improved Visitor Segmentation features
The segmentation system has been significantly improved. It now has full support for negative conditions and is much faster. We hope more people will now be able to discover this powerful feature. (Current users: Segmentation was called ‘Filters’ in previous versions, silly us) - Default Visitor Segments
We’ve added some default Segmentation filters to get you started, like: New visitors, Return Visitors and Mobile Visitors. But also examples for creating visitor segments for things like Google Adwords, so you can easily track your marketing campaigns performance. - Updated Test Center
The PHP Split Test result report has been enhanced with cool new metrics like the time spent on each page variation and their bounce rates.
For those SPE users out there that are blessed with Terrabyte logs files, tons of profiles and Gigabyte databases; we’re working on an (even) faster database, but that is still in the pipeline. We have added some more maintenance features in the meantime though:
- added command line script to update all profiles in the background
- added command line script to keep database size under a certain threshold of months
- added (beta) support for mysql pack and merge tables (doesn’t work on all tables yet)
- added a new user level that cannot edit the profile at all.
- added 1st party visitor cookie support in SPE style javascript tracking code
