* "Software analytics aims to obtain insightful and actionable information from software artifacts that help practitioners accomplish tasks related to software development, systems, and users." <ref>D. Zhang, S. han, Y. Dan, J.name="IEEESoftware-G. Lou, H Zhang: 2013"Software Analytics in Practice". IEEE Software, Sept./Oct. 2013, pp. 30-35.</ref> --- centers on analytics applied to artifacts a software system is composed of.

* "Software analytics is analytics on software data for managers and software engineers with the aim of empowering software development individiualsindividuals and teams to gain and share insight form their data to make better decisions." <ref>R. Buse, T. Zimmermann. name="Information Needs for Software Development AnalyticsICSESEIP12InfoNeeds". Proc. Int'l Conf. Software Engineering (ICSE), IEEE CS, 2012</ref> --- strengthens the core objectives for methods and techniques of software analytics, focusing on both software artifacts and activities of involved developers and teams.

* "Software analytics (SA) represents a branch of big data analytics. SA is concerned with the analysis of all software artifacts, not only source code. [...] These tiers vary from the higher level of the management board and setting the enterprise vision and portfolio management, going through project management planning and implementation by software developers." <ref>T. M. Abdellatif, L. F. Capretz, D. Ho. name="Software Analytics to Software Practice: A Systematic Literature ReviewBIGDSE2015". 1. Int'l Workshop on Big Data Engineering, 2015, pp. 30-36. </ref> --- reflects the broad scope including various stakeholders.
