To be able to monitor the RAM usage and CPU you need to install the Stackdriver Agent on your instance. The process will change depending on the OS you are using, here is the reference for Linux:

curl -sSO https://dl.google.com/cloudagents/install-monitoring-agent.sh
sudo bash install-monitoring-agent.sh

And for Windows through Powershell:

cd C:\Users\[USERNAME]
invoke-webrequest https://repo.stackdriver.com/windows/StackdriverMonitoring-GCM-46.exe -OutFile StackdriverMonitoring-GCM-46.exe;
.\StackdriverMonitoring-GCM-46.exe

Here is a list of the available metrics for Compute Engine once the agent is installed, but I don't think the number of users logged in is one of them.
