Google Analytics custom report that shows more users than sessions

Question

Can anyone give me an example where the users count will be greater than the number of sessions?

As per Google’s explanation I am pasting some contents from the site which Google gave as example

Here is an example of two sessions from two different users:

Session 1:

User enters to Page A User navigates to Page B User navigates back to Page A End of session Session 2:

User enters to Page C User navigates to Page B End of session Summary

Page A: 2 Pageviews, 1 Session, 1 Unique Pageview, 1 User, 1 Entrance Page B: 2 Pageviews, 0 Sessions, 2 Unique Pageviews, 2 Users, 0 Entrances Page C: 1 Pageview, 1 Session, 1 Unique Pageview, 1 User, 1 Entrance Totals: 5 Pageviews, 2 Sessions, 4 Unique Pageviews, 2 Users, 2 Entrances

In the above scenario the total user count is 2 which is equal to session count. What I am looking for is a scenario wherein the users count will be greater than the sessions.

Answer 1

In https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/2956047?hl=en&ref_topic=1012046 are well explained two scenarios where users are more than sessions count in a Google Analytics custom report:

SCENARIO 1

Session 1:

User enters to Page A

User navigates to Page B

User navigates back to Page A

End of session

Session 2:

User enters to Page C

User navigates to Page B

End of session

Summary

---

Page A: 2 Pageviews, 1 Session, 1 Unique Pageview, 1 User, 1 Entrance

Page B: 2 Pageviews, 0 Sessions, 2 Unique Pageviews, 2 Users, 0 Entrances

Page C: 1 Pageview, 1 Session, 1 Unique Pageview, 1 User, 1 Entrance

Totals: 5 Pageviews, 2 Sessions, 4 Unique Pageviews, 2 Users, 2 Entrances

In Session 1, Page A gets a session, while Page B does not, because it was not the first hit of the session. Likewise, in Session 2, only Page C gets a session.

SCENARIO 2

When using the Hour dimension A custom report that combines Hour or Hour of Day with Sessions and Users may show more users than sessions for any given hour.

If a session spans multiple hours, the session will only be counted for the first hour, but the user will be counted for every hour the session is active. For example, if a session begins at 8:50 and ends at 9:10, there will be a user attributed to 8 and 9 o'clock, one session at 8 o'clock, but zero sessions at 9 o'clock.

Therefore, 9 o'clock will have one user but zero sessions.

Answer 2

I read about changing IP during session may create 2 different users during one session. This can happen with dynamic ip providers.

I guess there is no other way. Pages always get session, not depending on first hit on not.
