- **Active users**: It displays the total number of users using the application daily, weekly, and monthly.
- **Users by time of day**: This displays the total number of users by time of day for a selected period. The darker the color of the brick, the more users are online at that time. You can also check the exact count of users for an hour by hovering over the mouse cursor on the respective brick.
