Why are Playfab usage analytics numbers (e.g. MAU) so different than other sources like the App Store, Firebase or Google Analytics?

,

We have an education related A/R app. We have been tracking analytics via the native Playfab Dashboard reports. These numbers are orders of magnitude different than other sources we have like App Store, Play Store, Google Analytics/Firebase. We are trying to understand the differences. In particular, MAU is very different.

I don't know much about other analysis tools, not sure if they define and calculate these metrics in the same way. You can refer to Metrics and Terminology - PlayFab | Microsoft Docs for definitions of metrics provided by analytics in PlayFab. And you can view daily or monthly changes in Reports.

Alternatively, you can use a new title to run a simple test with a small number of users to see if the metering works the way you want.
