OVERVIEW

About this course

Custom dimensions clearly indicate that you have moved from a beginner setup to a more advanced one. They are a powerful concept that enables you to add more context to your data and more ways to slice and dice page, session, and event performance. Lukas Oldenburg joins me in this session so that we can come up with a combined over 30 years of analytical experience. And also, both of us have just done some projects in Piwik Pro, and we are eager to share our experiences.
