This post could’ve fit in a few of the sub-fora, but I left it here in General.
I have 53 devices and 7 years of sense data in my device. My monthy “snapshot” just showed up in my email. Admittedly, I haven’t examined every month. When I look at this and see that 86% is in the two “ambiguous” categories, I have to ask myself how much valuebale data am I acutaully getting out of my investment?
I under stand the “always on” category 41.7% . Not much to be done with that. It is what it is. But the 45.3% of “other” is ridiculous. If I had a means of manually entering my devices, I bet I could bring that down to less than 12%-15%. See attached.
I understand the “groupware” function that Sense relies on for suggesting what other users have identified “found” devices and labeled them as, but there really should be a means of being able to manually enter a device and identifying it without relying on Sense to make this (in)-decision for me.
To be clear, what I am asking for is for me to be able to monitor my Sense in real time, turn a device on and off several times, have sense “see it”, and then have it offer for me to label it and add it as a device. This would increse my data accuracy significantly and actually allow me to better monitor all of my devices.
Nearly 50% in the “other” category is usless to me.
