Hello,
we’re going to have a Demo version of the game along with the full version, and I’m not sure what’s the best practice when it comes to analytics. Should we have separate analytics projects for these, or use the same one and send custom event with info whether the game is a demo or full version?
Along the similar line, what’s the best practice when the game is on multiple app stores?
It will depend on personal preference and the specifics of your demo.
It can be helpful to have different custom segments for different versions of the demo and compare data that way. This is much easier to compare data than if you were to use different projects.
However, if the demos are wildly different or for different situations and you need to keep the old data around, then separate projects might be the best option.
I also want to mention a new feature we released a couple weeks ago that allows you to reset the data in your dashboard, so you don’t have to worry about testing data skewing your production data:
Thanks!
I have the same questions, and resetting the data is a good feature, but what if people keep starting the old demo? It will still send data and skew the results, no?
You can also re-link the project to another new project: Sevices Window-> Settings-> Unlink project-> Create a new project.
