Feder and Adobe Analytics: keep Adobe Analytics, check the numbers you run on.
No, Feder is not a replacement for Adobe Analytics. Keep Adobe Analytics. Feder does a different job beside it: it reads what your connected apps recorded and compares each number with your own history, so you know when one cannot be trusted.
Why would I need this?
Because the question is not what the number is. It is whether you can trust it.
Is Feder an alternative to Adobe Analytics?
No. Adobe Analytics is Adobe's enterprise analytics product that brings together web, mobile and product interaction data for reporting and analysis. Feder does a different job: it watches the numbers your tools record and says when one cannot be trusted. Nothing here asks you to switch.
Do I need Feder if I have Adobe Analytics?
They do different jobs, so one does not stand in for the other. Keep Adobe Analytics for the job it does. Feder's job is to say when a number your tools record has gone quiet or moved outside your own history.
What does Adobe Analytics do better?
Adobe Analytics can point out when a number has moved away from what its own past data would lead you to expect.

How does Feder work with Adobe Analytics?
- Feder has no connection to Adobe Analytics today, so it reads nothing from it.
- The two can run side by side: Adobe Analytics keeps doing its job, and Feder checks the numbers your other tools record against your own history.
- Feder only reads. It never changes anything in a connected app.
What should I ask about my Adobe Analytics setup?
- Which numbers on my dashboard are counted at the source, and which are modeled or estimated?
- If this number stopped counting tomorrow, who would notice, and when?
- What does a normal week look like for this number, in my own history?
