Report Excerpt

The Web Analytics Report 2008 looks at... Exporting data from WebSideStory's HBX Analytics

"If you're seriously considering using HBX for data export purposes, you'll want to perform a proof of concept to verify that the imports work with your data warehouse. One customer prospect indicated that the inability to export primary key data effectively was a deal breaker; another longtime customer noted that the product limits the types of SQL queries you can perform with the Stream Reporting APIs, and you cannot use the Active Segments as a filter on ad hoc data queries. These could cause you a considerable headache if you want to do deeper, ad hoc analysis. WebSideStory appears to be counting on the 2007 release of a new module, called Visual HBX to address these issues."

(p. 171)
