Our community platform data analysis tools help leaders understand member behaviour and engagement. This month, we're excited to announce the launch of a new 'search data' analysis tool to help platform admins understand what their users are looking for. Administrators can now view search data from the last 12 months directly from their control panel. This powerful tool will help them identify search trends and offer valuable insights to improve the user experience. https://lnkd.in/eZ8jncVX #community #platform #data #analysis #insights
