We use Chartbeat in conjuction with these tools. Chartbeat is forward facing and we encourage everyone in the newsroom to use it. It provides the best live view, but lacks depth needed for more longer-term trend reporting and analysis. Domo allows much more advanced data …

Google Analytics 360 had problems, but after it was discontinued, Google Analytics became a shell of its former self. An added benefit of Chartbeat is that it's more "live" (looking at live concurrents rather than in the past however many minutes) and tells you how that number …

Much easier to use and understand than GA4. We tested Marfeel, but felt Chartbeat was so good there was no reason to change.
I still feel like our audit is still based on GA4 so we do have to still pay attention to that.

We use Chartbeat for real-time evaluation and Adobe Analytics for longer-term performance reporting. Chartbeat is easier to use overall, particularly for content producers. Researchers tend to rely on Adobe Analytics for their reports. We have found that we need to keep using …

Google Analytics has gradually become much more difficult to use, and much slower in its realtime reporting. It was the changes that came in with Google Analytics 4 that gave us the final push to work with Chartbeat - a product some of us were already familiar with from …

I used Parse.ly before I used Chartbeat. We shifted away from Parse.ly because it's social standing wasn't as good, it was mostly for site readership and we needed a bigger concentration on social media that Parse.ly couldn't provide. It's not listed, but we now use Social Flow …

Chartbeat stands out in terms of real-time tracking and information from which to manage homepages, I found this better than Smart Octo's equivalent. However, the ability to quickly explore past data does not go as deep as Google Analytics.

Chartbeat is better than GA when it comes to ease of use and immediacy. The homepage layover that Chartbeat offers is unique from what I've seen and gives me an instant knowledge of what's working on my site and how to best arrange it.

Other products like Chartbeat that I've used are Parse.ly, GA, and Omniture. Parse.ly is the only tool, in my opinion, that offers more real-time data, but the interface is lacking and isn't as intuitive as Chartbeat.

Chartbeat is better for live metrics than either Adobe or Google, but Adobe Omniture especially is much better for tracking historic numbers.

Chartbeat is certainly better at visualizing content and segmenting the data all on one screen. We can filter by section, author, channel and more without leaving the main dashboard page. Combining properties together in roll up groups is another key feature. We're able to …

The main point of benefit is the realtime data. This is vital to our team as we are publishing a lot of content per day, so we have a busy homepage to manage and it's important to know which content is performing well. We also like to get an understanding as quickly as possible - which Chartbeat offers - of where traffic is coming from. Often we will see an example where a page is getting high traffic from Google, for example, and we know that might not need to be placed so prominently on the homepage because the traffic is arriving to us externally anyway. Without that depth of understanding what is performing best and why - updated immediately, unlike in Google Analytics now - our homepage would not be as well optimised for users coming to us direct

Source of traffic needs improvement. Search and social make sense, but "internal" and "links" is a grey area. It would be helpful to define those with an organization and provide an information icon so users can easily remember what each of those buckets is tracking.
More ways to customize the real-time board. For example, with video content, that's great that I can see a user has started a video, but what is the completion rate, was that only on O&O or can that track Facebook, too?
Would like to see demo (age) information included as a way to slice the data so I can see what's working with my older and younger demo.

I gave Chartbeat a 5 for a renewal rating, because, while it delivers clear and understandable content, Google Analytics also provides many of the same features for free. For a small to medium website, I believe it would be more cost effective to use Google Analytics. A website with a high amount of traffic, however, could merit spending the money on Chartbeat to maximize their potential.
I am able to "set it and forget it," keeping it up on my monitor for either constant checking or just keeping an eye on the numbers during the day. I'm also able to keep track of what times are perfect to post a story and which stories rack up the most traffic.

I have had limited experience of support for Chartbeat but whenever I have needed help it has been there. Recently there was an issue of seeing different forms of data in real time - app and otherwise effectively, and the issue was being clearly dealt with and communicated back to us.
