Kyle, is there something particular you want to know about Dataium?
Ive had the code on my sites for over a year now and I've worked in the dashboard on a weekly basis for awhile.
Lets me ask it this way; what are you hoping to achieve with the data you hope to get from Dataium?
Jeff, I'm trying to determine if there is any other dealers in the community using dataium for tracking on their dealer websites. I'm curious if anyone has had success using their tools, what type of tracking you are able to do, and if it's a worthwhile investment. I'm currently using a "custom" version of the vkc tool and I'm not having much success. Just want to get the most out of what they have to offer and I'm also looking for some 2nd opinions or 3rds or 4ths on some strategys... The generalness of the question was used with the assumption there would be more feedback. I'm just trying to start a conversation. Due to the lack of interest I suppose a more directed post would be neccessary. I'm not really good at starting threads, more of a lurker...

Kyle, you did a fine job with your post.
The thing is - there are not a lot of dealer using Dataium for their analytics. I would venture to say most dealer that have the code on their websites (OEM / Agency mandated) are not even aware of it.
I too had been using the VKC tool with little success. Not always sure if what I'm looking at is accurate.
Not sure if you had seen this announcement - looks as if they are doing away with VKC tool and bringing it all together in a web based dashboard.

The issue with many tools such as this is getting actionable data that's easy to read and make decisions around.
Once you have the data, what can you do with it to help drive more traffic (website and floor) and sell more cars?
According to the press release above, maybe Dataium is going to make it easier to see this data..

HookLogic will be hosting this Webinar with Dataium. The Dataium crew are big fans of HookLogic. Why? – because as enlightening it is to have great data, you need an executable.

- Automated Data-based Decisions – With HookLogic’s Lead2Showprogram you can automatically incent shoppers the minute they show new signs of wanting to buy a vehicle.
So what's so special about Dataium? From what I've seen I can everything + more with other software for way less.. Am I missing something here?
Jason, thanks, I will attend the webinar. kcar, From what I have seen, Dataium's claim to fame is that they are able to track activity on so many different automotive websites, making them able to alert you when an old lead goes back "in market" on a competitors site or cars.com, etc... I am unaware of another company that is able to do that. Seems like a fantastic idea...
