F5 capabilities like Google Analytics

I'm looking into if F5 has any reporting or functionality that is similar to what Google Analytics offers. We are looking for measurement, compilation, analysis and reporting of website data with the goal of better understanding and optimizing website usage metrics and statistics. Some of the functionality we are looking for includes:

 

  • user activity
  • user demographics
  • impact of site changes
  • measure conversions and marketing campaign effectiveness
  • monitor site performance and usability

 

Any insight in the capabilities of LTM's running 11.3 would be of interest.

 

Thanks in advance

    I have not enabled it yet as we are just getting our LTMs migrated to 11.2.

     

  • Thanks - that slipped in we we upgraded to 11.3 and I didn't even see it. Will start to evaluate if it can do what we are looking for.

     

  • So here is another question, is it possible to utilize AVR in 11.3 and pull logs from an IIS server. We are trying to see if we can utilize AVR as a replacement for Google Analytics or Google's Urchin.
