Article Effectiveness Report

[Cristian Peralta]

Hi!

The Knowledge Management team at my company would like to see metrics on whether or not an article helped a user resolve their issue without creating a ticket. The issue is that the current Requests Deflected report uses the "Is this helpful?" vote button to determine these metricts (we are a big company and its hard to get so many people to use this).

Is there any way to just see instances where someone looked at an article and was deflected? If not, is there any other suggesteed workarounds?

Hi @Cristian Peralta I wonder the same thing.  My thoughts are if they don't do something after they read the article, it's hard to say if it resolved the issue or not.  There is a similar report for showing KB articles that are read, maybe that will help.

If they just look at a KB article, and close out the browser window, did it deflect it or not?  I don't know, as there isn't that user intervention.  They could just come back later, enter a new issue and it wasn't really deflected.

Just my two cents.  I don't know if there is a way around that or not.  

Hope it helped.
