Hi Ashley,

DSpace-CRIS has enhanced statistics / reporting over vanilla DSpace.  
However we are in the process of merging DSpace-CRIS into DSpace to result 
in a single platform. This will bring the same internal statistics to both 
platforms, likely starting with DSpace 11 next year.  But, it sounds like 
you are already finding DSpace-CRIS statistics limited.  This merger will 
only bring those same statistics over to DSpace.

If the internal statistics you see in DSpace-CRIS are still lacking, then 
it'd probably be best to create feature request tickets to describe the 
"gaps" in what you are looking 
for. https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/issues   (I admit, I'm not 
directly familiar with the statistical options in Digital Commons, so I 
cannot speak to those gaps myself)   DSpace is built entirely by 
volunteers, but creating an issue ticket might catch the attention of a 
developer (or service provider) interested in helping to enhance those 
statistical reports.

It is also worth mentioning that some institutions choose to use Google 
Analytics or Matomo Analytics *instead of* the internal DSpace statistics 
because those tools provide more advanced filtering and analysis options.  
DSpace can integrate with either of those external analytics tools.  See 
the docs at https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC9x/Statistics+and+Metrics
