Analytics and Reporting

No matter where you perform your scans, you can see the scan history and analytics in the Spotter app, enabling you to track the frequency of failed playbook executions, identify common errors, spot trends, and monitor progress. You do not have to spend hours searching for the source of the problem. Addressing playbook pain points and finding potential solutions has never been faster, easier, and most importantly – more transparent. Watch DEMO or read blog .

You don’t have to do anything, scans are automatically imported in the app and automatically stored in the first project of your first organization. But if that’s not where you want them to be stored, you can always choose where the results of a specific scan are stored.

It allows you to keep up with the number of scans executed in a specific organization, number of errors and executed checks, and overview of the most common errors.
