  • The total inbound and outbound app data for the group during the timeframe selected
  • A Top 5 list of apps ranked by the total data usage per app for that timeframe
  • A Top 5 list of users ranked by the total data usage per user for that timeframe

You will also see a detailed list of applications used by the selected group and the inbound and outbound data that was used by the apps during that timeframe.

When clicking on any of the application names in this list, you will be able to see a breakdown of data usage per user with the users listed in order of usage from highest to lowest.
