2. Customer satisfaction analysis, which calculates the number of customer requirements you are satisfying, weighted by their priority.

3. Organization strategies analysis, which allows you to drive value to enterprise initiatives, by giving you a visual image of which requirements are aligned with your business strategies and goals.

4. Popularity Analysis, which uses the results of the community voting to rank a requirement. Quickly discover the most popular idea, most controversial, etc.

5. A Global Score for each requirement delivers a rolled up ranking based on the relative weightings you assign to each of the 4 analyses.
