Analytics and results

Percentile

Also known as: percentile

A value describing a result's position in a distribution of ordered observations.

A practical example

What should I know?

Percentiles and averages can tell different quality stories.

Analytics and results in practice

Before comparing numbers, check definitions, periods, sources, and denominators. Separate observation from proof of an action's impact. A metric should support business decisions, not just look good in a report.
