User Analysis Overview
The User Analysis Report provides a snapshot of data utilization broken down by individual users or groups. It helps your organization understand who is consuming storage resources and how that impacts operating costs. This report must be enabled and configured by your System Administrator.
⚙️ Customizable? The users/groups authentication configured in Diskover drives this report.
