Introduction
With analytics data, you can track the success of your videos and better understand your viewer's habits. The Brightcove Native Player SDKs for iOS and Android make it easy to integrate analytics collection into your video solution.
Analytics solutions:
Video Cloud Analytics
Video Cloud customers who use the catalog service will have analytics data automatically collected by our own Brightcove Analytics system. This data is then aggregated and displayed in the Video Cloud Analytics module. The following table highlights data points currently collected in the SDKs:
| Tracked Event | iOS SDK | Android SDK |
|---|---|---|
| Video impression |  |
|
| Video view | |
|
| Video engagement | |
|
| Video complete | |
|
In addition to these events, you can specify your own custom data, configurable in the app, that can be sent and aggregated for viewing by Brightcove Analytics.
Brightcove Analytics is only available to Brightcove Video Cloud customers.
Adobe Analytics (Omniture)
Offering an in-depth look into the data behind your content, Adobe Analytics is a powerful name in the analytics business. Taking advantage of this expertise, the Brightcove Native Player SDK teams are excited to offer integrations with Adobe Analytics on both iOS and Android platforms.
