You have to get your users to authenticate to a proxy to track (web) activity per user. If you set the portal to authenticate to an external directory, then this will give you the login/logout times (if the users bother to log out). Bandwidth consumption is captured by Netflow, but this is tied to a source IP and not to a user ID.

there is no way that map IP Address To Username on netflow report this is difficult to find top user ?
my users connect via Captive portal and i can view their IP addresses and user name , I hope in next version

Do RADIUS accounting for your CP. ;)
It's difficult to generate all reports that users wish to see, it ends up glueing and correlating a lot of things together. If you need visibility, you have all the tools in OPNsense to export your data (syslog, netflow, RADIUS accounting) and there are better products out there we could ever write in that area.
For us, simply adding hostnames to Insight data is difficult: where to store the data, when to verify the data, how to improve performance of such a system on a larger scale...
We can and will fullfil further requirements, but we may not be able to cover all.
Cheers,
