DeltaDNA retools its analytics dashboard for real-time retention

DeltaDNA has retooled its analytics dashboard so that it delivers real-time retention and monetization performance analysis.

The new Benchmark Dashboard delivers real-time scores for how a game is performing across four key retention and monetization metrics. That way developers can see how their game stacks up against the best and most viable games out there. Retention is increasingly important as it’s easier and more lucrative to hang on to existing players than it is to pay high user acquisition costs to get new ones.
