"Great Tool For All Website Owners and Digital Marketers"
What do you like best about Google Analytics?

Google Analytics is a very very detailed tool. Shows your visitors on the website in real-time, along with this we can also track web pages and locations of the real-time traffic. Basically, most people use this tool for checking the visitors on the website by various mediums (like Direct traffic, organic traffic, email traffic, referral traffic, social traffic). But this can also be used to track your landing page's performance. Which pages are converting and which are not. You can check the bounce rate and session duration for the content you have written and can get insights like whether your content is engaging the people or not. Along with this, this tool also provides us the details like demographics, geographical locations, the behavior of the visitors, what device, browser, and network are being used by the visitors, so that we can optimize our websites accordingly. You can interconnect Google analytics and Google ads and the traffic and conversions from Ads can be tracking in Google Analytics. Under the behavior tab, we can track the performance of our content, can check our website speed and also allows us to create experiments. For tracking the conversions on our website, we need to set up the conversion tracking, for this, we have to place the code in our coding part. Also, we can use UTM parameters in the hyperlinks we are creating, and if that link gets any traffic, it will be reflected in our Analytics tool under source/medium. Google Analytics also allows us to create our own dashboard, as per our requirements, and track the performance accordingly. If we want to filter data from any source or IP, for that e can use filters and exclude that IP in our views.

What do you dislike about Google Analytics?

These days there is a glitch in analytics, the total count of users column sometimes doesn't match when we count that number personally. And also, when we add Google Analytics tracking code, it slows down the speed of the website and impacts the metrics of core web vitals. Apart from that, there is nothing that I dislike about Google Analytics.

What problems is Google Analytics solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am a digital marketer and I am solving all problems related to this field with Google Analytics. Like checking the performance of service pages and blogs. Checking conversions, checking which pages are converting from which countries. Checking the queries. Tracking organic traffic either is improving or not. Checking which devices are converting the most, to optimize accordingly. And many more.

"Keep the pulse of your business with Google Analytics"
What do you like best about Google Analytics?

The ability to keep up in real time with our website traffic, most specifcally referral traffic and where our website viewers came from. Targeting our audience members became much easier once we instituted GA.

What do you dislike about Google Analytics?

The delay to get our data from the previous day's worth of traffic (~11 am ET the next day) -- but the reports generated were still great.

What problems is Google Analytics solving and how is that benefiting you?

Targeting our audience for marketing content, not just emails but direct sales, proved much easier to solve than ever before once we could use GA.

"Google Analytics is important in my routine"
What do you like best about Google Analytics?

I'm rewriting my review from scratch. My name is Gabrielle and I work as a media analyst at Cadastra serving clients like Panvel. In my media routine I use Google Analytics in an integrated way with Google Ads, in GA I can evaluate and measure attribution data from the user's journey, with this my routine, in addition to being easier, is complete, agile and with data collected so that I obtain relevant information that helps me make decisions for day-to-day optimization of the account I operate.

What do you dislike about Google Analytics?

There is definitely nothing I don't like about Google Analytics. With the arrival of GA4, I understand that there are improvements that are yet to be implemented, sometimes there is a delay in monitoring App data, but this is resolved the next day.

What problems is Google Analytics solving and how is that benefiting you?

Google analytics helps me measure important data for my client. It ends up being a facilitator for reading voluminous data that is recorded from the campaigns we have active. So this process ends up being much more automated and faster.

"Best tracking tool for user database"
What do you like best about Google Analytics?

This is a powerful tool for mobile apps. User interface is easy to use. Updated UI and customization of dashboard is pretty nice. Seamless integration of other Google products and also some third party products to get some optimized user properties. As we get customized data, we use it in our regular production standups. Default implementation of GA gives our Analytics team the patterns of users using of app, characteristics, demographies etc. Overall we as a company the frequency of using the GA is regular.

What do you dislike about Google Analytics?

Though it is a powerhouse it has limitation while getting real-time data. It's bit tricky for the new users. GA collects user data so it might be risky for privacy policy.

What problems is Google Analytics solving and how is that benefiting you?

It majorly gives us the details of the user behaviour, characterstics pattern, what actions user is taking while using the app etc. We get some customized reports, conversion rate, traffic etc to make us able to take data-driven decisions.

"Such a fantastic analytics tool. I love GA!"
What do you like best about Google Analytics?

GA provides an extensive range of data that helps in understanding user behaviour, acquisition sources, and website performance. This level of analysis is beneficial for making decisions to optimize the website.

What do you dislike about Google Analytics?

After updating to GA4 the learning curve for Google Analytics is Steep. It requires a good amount of time and learning to become proficient. It's also very complex to configure unlike Universal Analytics.

What problems is Google Analytics solving and how is that benefiting you?

1. Traffic and acquisition analysis - GA provides detailed insights into website traffic, helping to understand where visitors are coming from, which channels are most effective, and how different traffic sources contribute to conversions. 2. Google ads performance. 3. Other digital campaigns performance.
