Abstract
Systems and methods for providing productivity insights regarding user networks are provided. Productivity insights are determinable based on event data, such as email messaging events and/or calendaring events, and enable a user to see at a glance how and with whom the user has spent his or her time. Additionally, productivity insights highlight any changes that occur over time within a user network. Analytics based on event data allow a user to easily identify top collaborators, which may or may not be the most important collaborators, as well as specific metrics for each collaborator, such as response time, email read rate, total collaboration time, etc. Thus, productivity insights serve to qualify and quantify collaborative relationships for individual employees so that they can leverage their time more effectively by improving collaboration within their networks, thereby increasing workplace productivity.
