LiveCompare Usage
The Usage Dashboard provides a graphical summary of the number of times users have displayed or downloaded LiveCompare reports. LiveCompare users can access reports using links in the LiveCompare user interface; users who do not have LiveCompare accounts may access reports via URLs that LiveCompare users have shared with them.
LiveCompare Administrators, Editors and Consumers can access the Usage Dashboard from the apps interface by clicking the 
icon.
Usage charts
The Usage Dashboard includes the following charts. A scheduled task named Tricentis LiveCompare Usage runs each night on the LiveCompare server to update these charts.

This column chart shows the top ten viewers of LiveCompare reports. The chart shows each user’s email address and the number of times they have displayed or downloaded a report.

Month Summary
