How can Funnel Comparison help you?

It can be frustrating to spend hours and hours trying to understand the changes in your funnel after you and your team complete the last round of content optimizations.
Funnel Comparison is a new Siteimprove feature that makes it easy to see what has changed in the funnel and understand the impact on different visitor segments.
Providing you with an overview of the different steps in the funnel and giving you the option to compare the results to a different period, this tool can help determine your conversion rate and what positive trends you can share. 

With Funnel Comparison, you can visualize changes, see the difference in the funnel chart, and view the specific changes between the steps by hovering over the funnel. You can also analyze up to six visitor segments, providing insights into performance during the specified comparison period. This feature enables you to track improvements in paid traffic or to identify decreases in visitors from specific devices or countries.


How to find and use the feature? 

You can enable the feature if you have 'Marketing Analytics'.
