How to Determine Your Monthly Active Users (MAU)

Common Mistake: Many organizations think they need licenses for ALL customers in their database. This is usually NOT true!

🎯 What MAU Actually Means:

MAU = Unique users who actually LOG IN per month

NOT the total number of contacts in your CRM or Dataverse!

💡 Real-World Example:
  • 500,000 customers in your Dataverse database
  • 500 cases created per month
  • 450 unique customers who created those cases
  • 460 unique contacts who actually logged in

✅ Result: You need ~500 MAU licenses (with growth buffer)

❌ NOT 500,000 licenses!

💰 Cost Savings: Understanding your real MAU can save you thousands per month!

📈 How to Calculate Your Real MAU:

  • Check Login Statistics: Review Power Pages analytics for unique authenticated users per month
  • Analyze Case Data: Count unique contacts who created/updated cases monthly
  • Review Web Analytics: Filter authenticated sessions in Application Insights
  • Historical Analysis: Look at the last 3-6 months to find peak usage
  • Add Growth Buffer: Add 15-25% for seasonal spikes and growth

🔍 Where to Find This Data:

Standard Approach:

  • Power Platform Admin Center: Analytics dashboard with DAU/WAU/MAU metrics (last 30 days)

Custom Tracking (Advanced):

  • Application Insights: Query authenticated user sessions and telemetry data
  • Custom Analytics: Implement tracking in Liquid templates or JavaScript
