Using CardioLog Analytics' Software Development Kit (SDK), you can create your own customized reports. CardioLog Analytics already has many reports, but if you want to produce any other report you can create them with the SDK. You can tap into the CardioLog database and integrate with any other data sources to develop enhanced source for richer reports (note that the creation of a custom report using the SDK requires T-SQL programming skills).
If you combine extended tracking, you can then use custom reports to produce reports based upon banner clicks, form fields, custom events and more.
