Google Analytics Reviews & Product Details

I really like how Google Analytics helps me see what’s happening on a website in real time. It gives a clear picture of where the traffic is coming from, how users interact with pages, and what content performs best. The way it connects with Google Ads and Search Console makes tracking campaigns and understanding ROI much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The main issue is the learning curve, especially with GA4. It feels a bit complicated at first, and some reports that were easy to find before now take more time. It would be great if the interface was a little more beginner-friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best part of the new Google Analytics 4 (GA4) is its unified, event-based data model. Shifting away from the old session/pageview model allows us to genuinely track the complete cross-platform journey - from a mobile app interaction to a desktop purchase - all within one property. This provides a holistic, user-centric view that was simply impossible before. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The data retention limits (max 14 months for details data) and the initial lack of historical data continuity during the transaction from UA created significant reporting gaps and made year-over-year comparison difficult for the first year of migration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to setup tool with customization available for type of impressions you want to track. Easy access to reports. Integrations available to export analytics and the dashboards are also easy to comprehend - both for techies and business managers Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For free tier users or beginners - the data refresh and data availability is pretty slow. Explorations can be a bit buggy ( unless you have prior experience with the tool it can be hard to spot) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I was introduced to Google Analytics with GA3. It was incredibly robust, but not as intuitive as I would have preferred. However, as I familiarized myself with the program, it became easier. Then GA4 came out and everything changed. The UI became easier to navigate, and the robust features that I relied on became more sophisticated. It changed everything for the better.

I would say that there is a steeper learning curve to Google Analytics when compared to other analytics programs. Granted, those programs are not as robust as Google Analytics, but not every program needs to be. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
