Javascript execution analysis on dev environments is easy—just use Google Developer or some other free tools. However, getting the same level of analysis while your application is being used by a real user is much harder. You can’t possibly ask the end-user to help you troubleshoot.

WFA: Visible - Microsoft Office Dashboard

The Microsoft Office Dashboard helps you to analyze usage trends and track adoption across your organization. It also allows you to speed up problem resolution by isolating application performance problems to the user’s device, the network, or the SaaS vendor’s back-end.
