Your weekly posts and comments will depend on the number of people using Workplace at your organization. At a base level, you should expect to see 2 posts per member and 3 comments per member a week.
Do a deep dive to analyze content production across segments of your organization such as regions, departments, and job titles.
One month after launchOne month after launch
Key metrics: monthly active and engaged users
Now that you're a few weeks post launch, it's important to look at how often people are coming back to Workplace and how integrated it is with everyone's regular workflow.
- Monthly active: The number of people who were active on Workplace in the last 28 days.
- Engaged:The number of people who were active on Workplace on at least 10 days of the last 28 days. Data shows that 85% of engaged people are still active after 6 months, so this metric is key to assessing the health of your Workplace after launch.
Workplace is all about building a more connected community, and active users are critical to its success. A healthy community will have 60%+ of all members engaged.
