The Piwik team has been implementing new features based on your feedback and on Professional Services requests:

• New Web Analytics reports (Loyalty and Recency reports)
• Better performance when tracking hundreds or thousands of websites
• Improved PDF/HTML reports (now including Graphs, possible to add the “All Websites” dashboard to the reports)
• Better usability (Change Dashboard layouts, Plot specified metric on graphs)

Here are some screenshots of the new features.

Loyalty report

Recency Report

Loyalty & Recency reports for Goals and Ecommerce conversions

Visitors > Overview now displays Page views, Downloads and Outlinks stats separately

PDF / HTML Reports now include Graphs! (optional)

Of course it works in all 46 languages in which Piwik is translated

 Graphs: Select the metric to plot

In Piwik 1.6 you used to only be able to see the main metric, but you can now plot several metrics at once, and compare metrics to each other.

 How to change the Dashboard columns layout?

Click on “Dashboard & Widgets” (previously called “Add a Widget…”).

Include the All Websites dashboard in PDF/HTML Email reports
