  • The relative volume of traffic to your site by the dimension you choose (e,g., traffic sources, campaign, browser)
  • The relative volume of pageviews per page or collection of pages
  • Specific metrics for connections, nodes, and node exits when you hover over them

The Users Flow report is very similar to the Behavior Flow report; however, the Users Flow is focused on the pages your users visit, whereas the Behavior report also includes Events and Content Groupings.
