December 28th, 2009 – Merry Xmas, UI Update, Data Export and More

Monday, December 28th, 2009

Happy holidays from Kontagent!

For the last few weeks, we’ve been hard at work on this latest update, version 1.14. We’re happy to announce that we’ve released it just in time for New Years!! This version has some very significant updates such as a long list of  UI tweaks, the added ability to support data export of graphs, upgrades to the test server and many bug fixes. Below you will find more details on each of these updates:

  • UI Updates
    • Re-written CSS style sheets that should speed up the load time and responsiveness of the dashboard
    • Fixed issues with switching between application
    • A brand new graphing package that should make it a lot easier to read the graphs
    • Many data formatting fixes such as the addition of units and using appropriate number precision
    • Numerous filter bug fixes
    • Separation of time filter from the demographic filter which was previously causing conflicts with the preset filters
    • Separation of traffic sources (ad tracking, partner tracking, viral sources) onto different pages
    • Addition of revenue on the main dashboard page
  • Test Server – One of the issues with the test server was that all applications for each account shared the same test server which meant that it was not possible for multiple teams to be testing different applications at the same time.  In 1.14, we have updated the test server to facilitate one test server per application.

  • Data Export -Data export has been one of the most commonly requested feature since we launched Kontagent.  Now, all the graphs feature an export link in the top right corner of  the window which allows you to export the data in each graph to CSV.

  • Install Conversion Metric on SubType A/B Testing Tables – Release 1.14 features a new column in the subtype table call install conversion.  This is the percentage of outbound messages that results in an install.  This is a very important metric if you are tuning specifically for virality.

We hope you enjoy the new release.  We hope you had a very merry Christmas and have a great New Year!
