9. 🛠️ Troubleshooting & FAQ

This section addresses common questions and potential issues you might encounter while using the JaJuMa Real User Monitoring (RUM) extension for Magento 2.

9.1 ❓ Why is no data appearing in my RUM Dashboard?

This is the most common issue new users face. Here is a checklist to diagnose the problem:

  1. Is the Extension Enabled?
    Navigate to JaJuMa -> Real User Monitoring -> Configuration -> General
    and ensure Enable Real User Monitoring is set to Yes.

  2. Have Cron Jobs Been Configured and Run?
    RUM data is processed asynchronously via Magento cron jobs. Ensure your Magento cron is running correctly.
    You can manually trigger the processing by running the CLI command:
    bin/magento jajuma:rum:preprocess_data.

  3. Check Cache and Static Content:
    After enabling the extension, make sure to clear your Magento caches
    (bin/magento cache:flush) and, if in production mode, redeploy static content
    (bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy).

  4. Review Your Sampling Rate:
    In Configuration -> Data Collection, check the Sampling percentage.
    If it's set to a very low number on a low-traffic site, it may take a long time to collect enough data to display.
    For testing, set this to 100.

  5. Check Blacklists:
    In Configuration -> Data Processing, ensure your own IP address is not listed in the IPs Blacklist, which would prevent your own sessions from being recorded.

9.2 ❓ How is this different from Google Analytics?

While both tools collect data from users, they serve fundamentally different purposes.

  • Google Analytics
    is focused on marketing and traffic analysis.
    It answers questions like "Where are my users coming from?", "Which pages are most popular?", and "What is my conversion rate?".
  • JaJuMa Real User Monitoring
    is focused on technical performance and stability.
    It answers questions like "Why is my product page slow for users in a specific country?", "Which JavaScript error is causing checkout failures?", and "Did our latest code deployment improve or degrade the Core Web Vitals?".

The two tools are complementary.
Google Analytics tells you what users are doing, while RUM tells you how they are experiencing it.

9.3 ❓ Will this extension slow down my site?

No. The extension has been engineered from the ground up for performance and includes multiple safeguards to prevent any negative impact on your store's speed:

  • Lightweight Script:
    The tracking script is asynchronous and highly optimized for minimal footprint.
  • Collect After Interaction:
    The recommended configuration only activates the script after a user interacts with the page, meaning it has zero impact on initial page load metrics like LCP.
  • Standalone Tracker:
    The optional standalone script isolates the data collection endpoint from your main Magento application, preventing high monitoring traffic from affecting your store's resources.
  • Server Load Safeguard:
    The data processing cron job will automatically pause if your server load exceeds a configured threshold, ensuring that data processing never interferes with customer transactions during peak traffic.

9.4 ❓ Why is a one-time payment better than a SaaS subscription?

This model provides two significant advantages:

  1. Massive Cost Savings:
    SaaS-based RUM tools often come with unpredictable and recurring monthly fees that can become very expensive over time. A one-time payment is a single, predictable investment that eliminates these ongoing costs.
  2. 100% Data Ownership & GDPR Compliance:
    With a self-hosted solution, all performance and user data remains on your servers. No sensitive information is sent to third parties, giving you full control and greatly simplifying your GDPR and privacy compliance efforts.
