Usage Trends
The Usage Trends page provides the ability to report on one or more features over a specified time frame while breaking the time frame into smaller segments, each with their own average and peak usage statistics.
For example, a report spanning a quarter can be broken down to also show the individual numbers of each month or each week. The report can also be pivoted, similar to the checkout statistics report, to show the usage per user, host, project, or custom group basis as well.
