Active User Percentage
Is your product a team playerâor a one-person show?
What It Is
This metric tracks the proportion of users in an account who are actively engaging with your product. Itâs your go-to measure for understanding how deeply your product is embedded into a teamâs workflow.
Why It Matters
Broad adoption equals healthier accounts.
-
High percentages mean your product isnât just a tool for one personâitâs a team-wide habit.
-
Low percentages signal risk: if only a few users are active, the account is more likely to churn.
For renewals and expansions, this metric is a game-changerâit shows whether your product is indispensable or at risk of being shelved.
How Itâs Measured
Active User Percentage is calculated by comparing active users to total users in an account:
Formula:
Active User Percentage = (Active Users / Total Users) Ă 100
Example:
-
10 active users out of 50 total â Active User Percentage = 20%
-
40 active users out of 50 total â Active User Percentage = 80%
Signals to Watch
-
Healthy Accounts: High percentages (e.g., 70%+) mean your product is widely adopted and embedded into the teamâs routine.
-
Warning Signs: Low percentages (e.g., below 30%), especially in larger accounts, suggest disengagement or reliance on a single champion user.
