Since MyAnalytics is an “Opt-Out” feature in Office 365, some companies wants to change this behavour for their users, meaning that each users should enable this feature them self instead of the service being automatically enabled when users are created.

Changing settings in Office 365 to change this behavour:

Remove the three ticks on the MyAnalytics service window to change the default behavour for new users. removing these ticks will ensure that users need to “opt-in” their self by accessing “Myanalytics.microsoft.com” and change settings there.

And in each user can ustomize their own MyAnalytics settings by opt-in or opt-out in the dashboard “myanalytics.microsoft.com”

Remove the service from each user forcing the users to enable the service themself
