Feature Adoption Rate

The percentage of eligible users who try and continue using a specific feature.

Formula

Users using the feature / Users eligible for the feature x 100

How to measure

Define eligibility, like having access to the feature, then track what share of eligible users engage with it at least once and again in a following period.

Why track it

Feature adoption tells a product team whether new investment is actually changing behavior, not just shipping into a void.

Example

A new automation feature reaches only 8% adoption among eligible users, prompting a redesign of its onboarding prompt.
