Analytics for SharePoint
On-Premises Architecture
Safe & Resilient
Your Data Under Your Control.
Keep your SharePoint analytic data safe in your own environment. If SaaS doesn’t fit your needs, use our software and keep your data right where you want it.
Overview
How we Collect and Report Data
Step 1
User visits SharePoint site
Step 2
Webtrends JavaScript tag collects data
The Webtrends SharePoint tag runs in the browser and collects data from both the browser and the SharePoint User Profile Service
Browser data examples
IP address: 192.167.1.12 (you can mask this to 192.167.1.x)
Page URL: /sitename/SitePages/Home.aspx
Screen Resolution: 1920×1080
User Profile Service examples:
Name: Bob Smith
Department: Marketing
Custom field (employee ID): Employee ID
Step 3
Data is sent to Webtrends
The data is sent to a SmartSource Data Collector in your environment via a secure HTTPS GET request from the browser that returns a clear 1×1 gif image. The GET request includes the analytics data in the form of query parameters.
Step 4
Data is Analyzed
Data is analyzed and reports are generated, all inside the software running in your environment.
Step 5
View Reports
Reports are available to view within the software web UI or exported to many formats such as csv and pdf.
