Why Conviva?
Built for product teams who need precise answers and automation—not dashboards.
Full visibility across the product stack.
Conviva connects viewer experience, engagement, and technical performance directly to business outcomes—so you can:
- Pinpoint the root cause of playback stalls, app errors, and viewer drop-offs
- Correlate CDN issues, ABR instability, and player regressions with real user impact
- Tie performance degradation to dips in engagement, ad revenue, and retention
No more hunches. Just real-time answers that drive results.
Pinpoint which guests are dropping off.
Every stalled stream, failed login, or broken interaction has a fingerprint.
Conviva reveals it in real time—before it becomes churn, or lost revenue.
- Which viewer cohort is affected: Android TV users, app version 6.1.4, crashing on “Watch Now,” using WiFi in rural areas
- What broke the experience: Slow module load, entitlement sync issue, app crash post-login
- Why it matters: Viewers abandon the session, ad impressions drop, support tickets spike
Conviva ties every issue to a cause, an impact, and a fix—automatically.

- Pinpoints root cause across players, CDNs, and third-party services—no digging required
Clarity on what’s going wrong, what’s going right, and how to turn both into growth.
Turn every insight into action—without waiting on devs.
- Define flows like startup, playback success, or ad completion—without tagging
- Create KPIs across experience, engagement, and monetization—no code required
- Explore cohort-level viewer insights instantly, without waiting on data teams
No dev dependency. No backlog. Just speed, clarity, and product momentum.
Turn viewer journeys into revenue.
From app launch to playback, content discovery to in-session engagement—every viewer journey is shaped by performance, personalization, and system behavior.
Here’s how a typical viewer journey unfolds—
and where friction quietly builds:
01 App Launch
Action: a viewer lands on the homepage of your website or mobile app
- Common issues: feature product tiles fail to load, hero banners don’t render, or performance lags on specific devices or OS versions
02 Sign Up or Sign In
Action: the viewer attempts to log in
- Common issues: slow response times, session drops, multi-factor authentication delays
06 Post-Session
Action: the viewer returns to the home screen
- Common issues: after watching, playback state isn’t saved. Watchlists don’t update. Ratings don’t persist—eroding return engagement
03 Home Screen Experience
Action: the viewer looks for shows or movies
- Common issues: server delays, irrelevant results, missing room and flight inventory from certain airlines and hotels suppliers
05 Video Playback
Action: they press play
- Common issues: the video buffers endlessly, entitlement fails silently, or nothing plays—without a clear error message
04 Search & Discovery
Action: the viewer searches
- Common issues: filters are broken, results are irrelevant, or search freezes—often tied to platform or app version
With Conviva, you can define key journeys as flows—like login, product discovery, checkout, or loyalty sign up, catered to your application—without code.
Each flow includes built-in metrics like starts, completes, duration, and error rate, so you can monitor performance in real time and uncover issues at the micro-cohort level.
