When your Sniffie account was created, your pricing data was likely extracted and organized into categories. This provides you with a good starting point. However, to get the most out of Sniffie you’ll most likely want to divide your products into smaller segments and groups. You can do this easily with product tags. Learn more about product tags and how they can be used to easily organize your data in just a few simple clicks with this helpful article.

Now that you have imported and organized your pricing data, it is ready to be analyzed whenever and however you need. Use the Sniffie filters for quick data access and segmentation. Filters can be opened by clicking the filter icon located at the top left of the screen, in the Sniffie app.
