Google Apps Reporting for Education & Business

Using Google Workspace for Education (formally G Suite for Education) or Google Workspace for Work and need to demonstrate usage and impact?

Statistics 24 provides unique reporting functionality to show what your users have been doing and for how long. For education leaders driving forward with online education it provides an audit for quality monitoring and funding purposes, and for business it enables colleagues and leaders to demonstrate value and control in how Google Apps for Work has been used.

Education

Up to now the only reason not to use Google Apps for Education to deliver online learning was it's lack of reporting functionality. Statistics 24 solves that in one easy click, providing quality managers, auditors and those responsible for funding with a clear audit trail of what users have been doing in Google Classroom and other Google Workspace apps, and also for how long. This matters because independent online learning time can now be quantified. For teachers it provides unprecedented insight into what learners have been working on and for how long, no matter where they are or what kit they are using.

Work

If your organisation charges customers for your time, or you just need to keep track of who has been working on documents and for how long, Statistics 24 is the solution.

S24 is particularly useful for home-working or for those out of the office who wish to provide evidence of work, e.g. time-sheets.

Overview

Statistics 24 works exclusively with Google Workspace (formally known as G Suite) and best with the Chrome browser. The FREE plugin can be installed on Chromebooks and the Google Chrome browser for Windows and Mac, Microsoft Edge or Mozilla's Firefox. By installing the tiny plugin/extension on all of the machines in your organisation you can ensure that all work is automatically audited. It can be pushed out to users automatically via the Google Admin Console. It can even be installed on Chromebooks and PC's at home for distance or remote workers, for example. In order to access the reports and data there is a license fee for your organisation.

The reporting system is cloud-based so you will always be using the most up-to-date version, with all new functionality being instantly available to you.

The plugin provides an instant way for users to check how much time they have spent using Google Apps over the past 7 days, and what times of day they were used by simply clicking the little icon in the corner of their browser.

This information is available to all users of a subscribed organisation, including staff and students.

Users can also access the full reporting site to see in-depth information over much longer periods, graphs and even export data to create their own reports if desired in spreadsheet applications. The same goes for anyone set up as an 'Organisation Reporter', but they can also access reports for anyone and anything within their organisation - not just their own data.

The use of Google Docs, Google Sheets, Google Slides, Google Classroom, Google Drive, Google Forms, Google Hangouts, Google Meet, Google Chat, Jamboard and Google Drawings is all logged as these are where most work takes place.

Weekly Reports

Hardware Utilisation Data - See how many sessions took place for different device types. Useful for making purchasing decisions based on existing Chromebook usage compared to Windows PC's etc.

Sessions by Hour - Help plan computer usage timetables by knowing when your busiest periods are. See how much work is being done outside of normal hours.

Session Lengths - See how many long or short working sessions take place. This can be a good indicator to show if people aren't taking adequate breaks or aren't managing their time well.

Unique Users per Day - Discover how many of your students/employees are actively using Google Workspace each day. Helpful to see if your resources are over or under utilised.

New Features

As the Statistics 24 user base grows we are committed to expanding its features and adding more functionality by working with our clients. With this in mind we have recently added the following:

Work sessions now display the operating system they took place on.
With the huge increase of teaching via Google Meet sessions, Statistics 24 now audits time spent in Meet and Hangouts. We've also added Jamboard and Google Drawings usage.
Filters can be added to separate users, e.g. "Staff" and "Student" accounts, in reports (dependant upon account naming conventions). Get in touch to have them set up for your organisation.
"Working Hours" can be set for each organisation so work taking place outside of those times are flagged in red. This can provide an instant visual indicator of someone is working outside of normal hours a lot. The default is 6am to 10pm but can easily be changed.
Teachers can now run attendance reports on any Google Classrooms where they have the role of "teacher", without needing any special permissions or elevated privileges.
Organisation Administrators can now set a default time zone for their users (though this can be overridden by each user if they are in a different location) which will affect all reports run by that user. They can also set the "Working Hours" for their organisation.
