The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality.

The CMX analytics provides different reports to understand and monitor the behavior patterns of devices within a particular venue.
The analytics reporting facility provides a more regular and manager-oriented set of information through the provision of parameterized templates to measure various common trends and patterns that occur over a period of time in a particular zone.
The time window for reports is typically longer for Analytics. Reports operates off an aggregated databased which is considerably smaller than the full analytics database, which is restricted by default to 8 million points. For this reason you may likely to see less history available for Analytics than for Reporting.
Note The data in the dashboard tab is filtered to include devices that were seen for more than 5 minutes and less than 10 hours. To change these dwell time parameters, goto Settings > Presence Analytics > Threshold settings menu.
Note The available parameters for the reports are self-configurable. Hence while choosing a data or time, the other options may be restricted. This is to ensure that around 30-40 data points are displayed along the X-axis and ensuring clarity.
This report shows the percentage of people who visited a target zone/site that were also seen in the surrounding zone. This indicates how many people who were in the vicinity actually entered the target zone/site.
For example, in case of a shop, the report shows percentage of people seen outside the shop before entering the shop.

This report shows a breakdown of what percentage of devices visited the selected building/site a certain number of times. The Date/Time selection identifies a window of time which gives a reference set of dates. “Counting visits since” gets how often these chosen devices have appeared from that date up to the Date/Time selection. For example, of the devices that came into the venue this week, how frequently did they visit over the last month.
