Analytics
What the Analytics page in the Feedvote dashboard shows, which date ranges you can pick, and who can see it.
The Analytics page in the Feedvote dashboard shows how much feedback and how many votes your project gets, how that feedback is spread across categories and statuses, and which items and people are most active. Team members open it from the Analytics item in the dashboard sidebar. Visitors of your public board cannot see it.
Who can see Analytics
- Every team member of a project can open the Analytics page, whatever their role. This includes the project owner.
- Visitors of your public board cannot see Analytics. The page exists only in the dashboard.
- Analytics shows data for one project at a time: the project you select in the dashboard sidebar. If no project is selected, the page asks you to choose one.
- Analytics needs an active free trial or paid plan for the project. If the trial has ended and nobody has subscribed, the Analytics data does not load. See Plans and billing.
Choose a date range
Use the date range menu at the top of the Analytics page. It has four options:
| Option | Period covered |
|---|---|
| Last 7 days | The last 7 days, up to now |
| Last 30 days | The last 30 days, up to now. This is the default. |
| Last 90 days | The last 90 days, up to now |
| Last year | The last 365 days, up to now |
The date range applies to the summary cards, Feedback Timeline, Feedback Categories, Feedback by Status and Top 10 Contributors. It does not apply to Top 10 Voted, which always looks at all of the project's feedback.
You cannot set a custom start date or end date. You also cannot filter the Analytics page by category.
Summary cards
The top row shows summary cards for the selected date range.
| Card | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Total Feedback | The number of feedback items created in the date range. |
| From Linear | Shown instead of Total Feedback when Linear is connected to the project. The number of items in the date range that came from Linear ("Imported from Linear"). |
| Submitted | Shown next to From Linear when Linear is connected. The other items in the date range ("Submitted on Feedvote"). |
| Total Votes | The number of votes cast on the project's feedback in the date range. |
| Done Feedback | The percentage of feedback created in the date range that now has the status Shipped. |
Total Feedback, Total Votes and Done Feedback also show a change compared with the previous period of the same length. The label reads "vs previous week" for Last 7 days, "vs previous year" for Last year, and "vs previous period" for the other ranges. The From Linear and Submitted cards do not show a change.
Feedback Timeline
The Feedback Timeline chart ("Volume over time") shows two lines over the date range:
- Feedback: new feedback items.
- Votes: new votes.
For Last 7 days, Last 30 days and Last 90 days, the chart shows one point per day. For Last year, it shows one point per month. If there is nothing to show, the chart says "No timeline data available yet."
Feedback Categories
The Feedback Categories chart ("Share by category") shows what percentage of the feedback created in the date range belongs to each category. Percentages are rounded to whole numbers. Feedback without a category is not shown in this chart.
Feedback by Status
The Feedback by Status chart ("Current status distribution") counts the feedback created in the date range by its current status: Backlog, To Do, In Progress, Shipped and Canceled. A status with no feedback is not shown.
Top 10 Voted
The Top 10 Voted list ("Feedback with the highest momentum") shows the project's feedback with the most votes. When two items have the same number of votes, the newer one comes first. Only approved feedback appears. This list ignores the date range. Today the list shows up to 5 items, even though its name says 10.
Top 10 Contributors
The Top 10 Contributors list ranks the people who were most active in the project during the date range. Activity is the total of the feedback they posted, the votes they cast and the comments they wrote in the date range. Your team members are counted too, and internal notes count as comments. Each row shows the person's name and their counts, for example "3 feedback · 5 votes · 2 comments", plus their rank. Today the list shows up to 5 people, even though its name says 10.
Export Analytics as CSV
Any team member can download the analytics data as a CSV file.
- Open Analytics in the dashboard sidebar.
- Pick a date range.
- Click Export CSV.
The file covers the selected date range. It contains the overview numbers (total feedback, total votes and done percentage), the timeline data and the category data. It does not contain the Feedback by Status, Top 10 Voted or Top 10 Contributors data.
Common questions
Can I pick my own dates on the Analytics page?
No. The Analytics page offers four fixed ranges: Last 7 days, Last 30 days, Last 90 days and Last year. Last 30 days is the default.
Why does Top 10 Voted not change when I change the date range?
Top 10 Voted always ranks all approved feedback in the project by its votes. The date range does not apply to this list.
Can visitors of my public board see Analytics?
No. Analytics is only in the dashboard, and only team members of the project can open it.
Why do I see From Linear and Submitted instead of Total Feedback?
When Linear is connected to the project, the Total Feedback card is split into From Linear (items imported from Linear) and Submitted (items submitted on Feedvote).
Why does Top 10 Voted show only 5 items?
The Top 10 Voted and Top 10 Contributors lists currently show up to 5 entries each, even though their names say 10.
What is in the CSV export?
The Export CSV file has the overview numbers, the timeline data and the category data for the selected date range. It does not include status counts, top voted feedback or contributors.
