Dear Logaholics,

We’ve just released Logaholic Web Analytics 2.1 – a major update that you don’t want to miss.

This new version has some major improvements under the hood, bug fixes and some exciting enhancements. To name a few changes:

  • Improved Cross Browser Functionality (works in IE, Firefox, Safari, Chrome etc.)
  • New Flash based Funnel graphs
  • Improved Summary Report menu navigation
  • Improved Filters (Traffic Segmentation)
  • Optimized scalability for large screens
  • Added ‘speed reading’ functionality when handling large log files
  • Improved User and profile management for SPE versions
  • By popular demand: Added links to RIPE Whois from Click Trails
  • By popular demand: Added full database CSV export option (so you can do Web Analytics in SPSS 🙂
  • and more…

Web Analytics

Death of the Today Page ?

Lots of Logaholic users have told us they really only look at the “Today Page” most of the time and only occasionally venture into the other reports. They say that everything that is important is on that page anyway…

That is a shame because a lot of effort has gone into all those other reports. If you never check them out, you are missing some informational gems.

On the other hand, I am glad the Today Page has done such a good job at doing what is was designed to do: to give you one powerful, intuitive snapshot overview of your website traffic instantly.

That is why, out of all the screens in Logaholic, the Today Page really hasn’t changed much since it’s first release in December 2005… until now!

Custom Dashboards

The completely revamped Today Page is still the way you like it … but now you can totally customize it and add any Logaholic report to your Today Overview, including Funnels and Test Center results. You can even drag and drop Today Page components to any position you want. This means you can create your own custom dashboard that shows you all the information that is essential to you, on one comprehensive screen.

Future developments

This release contains the ground works of new features and enhancements that we have been working on for a while, like internationalization, extensibility and customization. I know I will disappoint some people when I say that the translations framework did not make it into this release and neither did the plugin API. The good new is, you can expect that in the next release 🙂
