Description
The number of times users triggered an event.
Why it is important
Tracking the Event Count in e-commerce is crucial as it provides insights into user interactions and engagement with specific actions on the platform, such as "Add to Cart" or "Product View."

Analyzing event counts helps businesses understand user behavior, identify popular features, and optimize the user experience.
Formula
Number of Events
Calculation example
Let's say you have an e-commerce website, and you're tracking the "Add to Cart" event. Each time a user adds a product to their cart, it counts as an event.

User A adds 3 items to the cart.
User B adds 2 items to the cart.
User C adds 1 item to the cart.

Event Count = Number of Events = (3 items + 2 items + 1 item) = 6 events
