The Cisco® Digital Media Suite (DMS) is a comprehensive offering of social video, digital signage, and IPTV systems that can help transform how organizations learn, grow, communicate, and collaborate. Support from the broad Cisco partner ecosystem of deployment, solution-development, and content-creation partners help ensure a successful digital media implementation.
The Cisco® Show and Share Reports is an integrated function within Cisco Show and Share that allows you to track the access and use of video content by end users. With this tool you can:
• Specify time periods: Run reports based on specific dates.
• Analyze content use: Access unique traffic metrics and repeat traffic metrics for each available video or as an aggregated total.
• Monitor referrals: Track top referring pages and links with the corresponding views they generate.
• Understand visitors: Acquire vital statistics about visitors, including operating system, browser, and media plug-in used.
• Receive viewer usage details: Identify what videos have been played by individual users and videos.
With the Cisco Show and Share Reports tool, Cisco Digital Media Suite (DMS) administrators and Cisco Show and Share authors can access a variety of usage information that can facilitate tracking content effectiveness and required user access as part of a larger training compliancy effort, and help shape future content development based on content trends.
