Chose GTmetrix
Given we are doing the work to improve in Google to a large degree - the Google product is essential. But GTMetrix may use their info as well as other independent stuff to be a little better. I appreciate the way GTMetrix provides the info - cleaner and clearer and thus quicker …
Chose GTmetrix
Compared to the products I have listed PageSpeed Insights is probably the closest to what GTMetrix does and many times those 2 tabs are open side by side. SEMrush is a full SEO platform and though it can do much of what GTmetrix does it is also quite expensive and does a lot …
Chose GTmetrix
The data visualization aspect of GTmetrix is better than the competition. It uses letters A, B, and C to help rate speed and performance. It shows the time, size of the page, and uses colors as well. Green is fast, orange and red are slow (poor).
There are also articles …
Chose GTmetrix
GTmetrix gathers data from both Google PageSpeed and YSlow at same time, so we're using it more often than Google's alternative.
On the other hand, Google PageSpeed offers neat features like download optimized images, scripts and CSS (which GTmetrix don't), so it could be a …

GTmetrix is very well suited for small organizations or startups that do not have sufficient technical staff for site optimization. GTmetrix also comes with the free version, which allows users to use their service for free for up to three websites, which is a good option. However, this might not be the best option for a large organization that works in different technical domains and have a good number of technical staff.

Cons
No answers on this topic
  • They might consider improving their checking process speed, it often takes a huge time to display the performance report. This is even longer for non-logged-in users.
  • Previously two different options of Google's Pagespeeds and Yahoo's lighthouse were shown in the report section, now only combined report is shown. I personally like the two reports from different sources.
  • Non-tech savvy persons might not find it so easy to use.

I have never had the need to use GTmetrix support. Therefore, there is really no way for me to give a grade here. However, if you are on a paid plan my guess and it is a guess, is that their support is as good as the tool is. There are a lot more features in the paid plans, reporting. monitoring etc. I could see where support could come into play as these features are added to the account
