Why Plan-Based Limitations for Analytics?
Service providers like Formora often structure their plans this way due to:- Resource Allocation: Storing and processing large volumes of analytics data requires significant server resources. Higher-tier plans can support more intensive data needs.
- Value Proposition: Advanced analytics features provide deeper insights and are often tailored for businesses with more complex tracking and reporting requirements, aligning with the value offered in premium plans.
Potential Areas of Plan-Based Differentiation in Analytics
Here are common aspects of analytics that might vary depending on your Formora subscription plan:Analytics Data History
Analytics Data History
- Definition: How long Formora stores your detailed analytics data (e.g., individual views, submission metadata for analytics calculations, daily aggregates) for you to view and analyze.
- Formora Plans:
- Free Plan: Offers a 7-day history for analytics and insights.
- Basic & Pro Plans: Provide unlimited history for analytics and insights, allowing for long-term trend analysis and year-over-year comparisons.
- Impact: Access to historical data beyond 7 days requires a Basic or Pro plan.
