Overview
Cato provides a Predefined Report template that summarizes the score and usage for sites, users, and applications.
Create the template for the recurring or one-time report with the sites that are included in the report over the defined time range. By default, the Predefined Report template for Experience Monitoring reports shows traffic and data for sites over the defined time frame.
For more about working with reports, see Cato Reports.
Creating a Recurring DEM Site Experience Report
Create a new recurring report by defining the Filters for the items included in the report, as well as the Schedule which defines how often the report is generated - daily, weekly, or monthly. Generated reports are stored in the Cato Cloud, and they can be automatically emailed or downloaded. The Schedule also defines the time range that is covered by each report.
You can select the Mailing List of email addresses for the recipients, which can include Cato Management Application admins and external users.
For more information about Mailing Lists, see Working with Mailing Lists.
To create a recurring DEM Site Experience report:
From the navigation pane, select Home > Reports.
From the Catalog tab, select the template you want to use to generate the report.
Enter a Report Name.
(Optional) In Filters, select specific sites or users for the Predefined Report.
By default, the Predefined Report includes all sites and users.
To include multiple sites or users in the report, use the IN operator.
Define when the report will be generated and sent:
Select the Frequency that the report is automatically sent: Daily, Weekly, or Monthly.
For Weekly and Monthly Scheduled reports, in Every select the day that the report is sent.
In Send to Mailing List, select the Mailing List that receives the report.
You can click New to create a new mailing list.
Click Save Schedule. The report is added to the Saved Reports tab.
Generating a Recurring Report On Demand
Recurring reports are automatically generated based on their schedule settings. For example, a weekly report configured for Monday, is generated every Monday. You can also choose to manually generate a recurring report on demand, in which case the generated report uses the defined time range based on the current day. If an admin manually generates a weekly report on a Tuesday, the time range for the report is the previous 7 days starting from that Tuesday, regardless of the starting day of the recurring report. For more information about the time range of recurring reports, see Cato Reports.
To generate a recurring report on demand:
From the navigation pane, select Home > Reports.
From the Saved Reports tab, find the recurring report and click Generate Now.

Understanding the DEM Site Experience Report
There are two Experience Monitoring reports:
Site Experience Report - Shows details about the sites' average scores, as well as top sites, hosts, and applications (by usage)
Site and User Experience Report - Shows details about users' experience, and includes some basic site experience data
The report includes information about the Average Experience Score and is followed by sections that display the top sites, top hosts, and top applications by usage.
Note:
Sections that show data for application experience are filtered to show data only for sanctioned applications.
