Any one using Distimo Monitor ?
It looks interesting as they can also track android and other markets (google, amazon, etc.), but almost everyone seems to be using appannie or appviz. So, I’d like to hear your opinion if you are using them… [import]uid: 10478 topic_id: 14612 reply_id: 314612[/import]
Hi,
We’ve been using it for a week, it has pros and cons.
Main pro being having rankings on Android market which seem to be a pain to get otherwise. Other one is its price : free.
Cons is that downloads are stacked for all platforms (except if you select particular views), which doesn’t make too much sense.
It seems to be a work in progress, and it’s a nice start I think.
Best,

Thanks for the feedback!
Anyone else? [import]uid: 10478 topic_id: 14612 reply_id: 54083[/import]
I personally use appfigures, appannie and applyzer.
I only use distimo for android, and it doesnt work well at all. It gets very confused about downloads per day. Sometimes it shows totally wrong numbers

Hi All,
I work at Distimo, thanks for your feedback. Here some comments:
@dev89: The Dashboard shows aggregated data. Here you can also filter per Appstore or App. To see more details by Country, Category, Device, Continent, Day, Week and Month there are indeed particular views; Downloads, Revenue, Rankings, Reviews, Grid and Benchmarks.
@kam187: From the Distimo Monitor F.A.Q. about Android data:
For Android we login to the Android Developer Console every day at the same time and calculate the difference in downloads against the previous day. This delta is the number of downloads we show in Monitor. Sadly, Google doesn’t update the download figures every day or at the same time. Sometimes it is updated within 4 hours after the previous update, and sometimes only after 36 hours. If no update occurs in 24 hours, we see no difference in downloads, which leads to zero downloads on that day. Normally, you will see a small spike the day after, due to a Google update that spans a timeframe > 24 hours.
