手机应用产品之间存在激战，应用商店之间也不乏竞争，由此后推，应用分析工具之间也不免相互过招，都在铆足劲提高市场追踪的效能。

游戏邦获悉Distimo最近也更新了自己的分析工具，为应用开发商推出了一项名为“产品危险竞争区分布图”的新功能。

该工具支持与Distimo的签约合作开发者，将自己的产品市场表现与其他竞争对手进行对比，该地图会显示在固定时间内，哪些开发商的应用在哪个地区最占优势。

开发者可以根据地图显示的信息，决定自己的下一轮市场营销活动的锁定范围。当然，他们也可以选择以娱乐的心态来看待这一新功能。

游戏邦认为Distimo这项服务，对WP7和Mac App Store这两个新晋平台的开发者来说应该最有效果。

为打造一站式的开发者服务平台，Distimo还在原来的Android Market用户评论的基础上，导入了苹果App Store用户评论这项服务。（本文为游戏邦/gamerboom.com编译，转载请注明来源：游戏邦）

Distimo updates app analytics to include Risk-style competitor comparison map

There’s competition between apps, there’s competition between the marketplaces that sell apps, and, crucially, there’s also competition between the analytics tools that evaluate the performance of apps.

As such, it’s no surprise to see firms such as Distimo refreshing its tools to ensure its developers have access to the best information, with the most recent addition billed as a ‘Command and Conquer or Risk-style competitor map’.

War of the world

The new tool allows those signed up to Distimo to compare their app’s performance to that of a competitor of their choice, with the map displaying just which firm is in a winning position in each country over a chosen amount of time.

On a technical level, it could well prove to be a quick and easy tool to show studios just where they need to target their next promotions campaign.

Or it could simply be a bit of fun.

Support surge

Either way, joining the map within Distimo’s Monitor tool is support for apps on Windows Phone 7 and the Mac App Store.

The firm has previously included stats from each marketplace in their reports – Microsoft’s platform appearing back in November 2010, with the Mac App Store featuring in a dedicated report in March.

In a bid to serve as a one-stop shop for developers, Distimo has also begun importing customer reviews from the App Store, following on from its existing customer review support for Android Market.（source:pocketgamer）
