Knowing how and when attendees check in to your Event helps identify peak hours, discover confusion points, and explore patterns to fine-tune the check-in experience for both current and future events. Session Check-in metrics and reports let you gauge Session attendance and engagement and award Continuing Education Credits.

The Onsite Metrics page gives detailed counts, percentages, and comparisons for attendee Event check-in progress, including the number and percentage of registered attendees checked in, badge reprint totals, and printer usage information. Six downloadable reports give even more information about Event Check-in and access to Session Check-in metrics.

To access the metrics, simply click Metrics under 'Onsite' in your Event navigation bar.

Metrics

The Metrics page is the perfect place to find a quick, comprehensive snapshot of Event Check-in activity both during and after check-in. We know metrics can be difficult to decipher, so we've made the dashboard as simple as possible.

To access Session Check-in metrics, read the section of this article about exporting reports.

💡 Keep in mind, some aspects of the Metrics page can take up to 15 minutes to update. Click the refresh icon in the upper right corner of the widget to review the most up-to-date data.

Filters

Use the filter drop-downs at the top of the page to show data only for specific Attendee Types, Check-in Types, or Printer Locations for specific dates or date ranges.

Check-in Analytics

This chart shows the total unique check-ins and the attendee types or badges with the most check-ins over time. When your event has more than six types/badges, the chart shows the top five, and the rest are grouped under 'Other'. Click the icons in the top right corner to switch between line graph view and area graph view, and use the '15 min', 'Hourly', or 'Daily' toggles to drill down even further.

Check-in Status

This chart shows the number of attendees checked in and not checked in by attendee types or badges. When your event has more than ten types/badges, the chart shows the nine with the most check-ins, and the rest are grouped under 'Other'.

Badge Print Location
