Google Analytics is perhaps the best-known web analytics product and, as a free product, it has massive adoption. Although it lacks some enterprise-level features compared to its competitors in the space, the launch of the paid Google Analytics Premium edition seems likely to close the gap.https://media.trustradius.com/product-logos/Du/bb/UP417EGQ7C6Z.PNGGoogleThe BEST free web analytics tool on the market2019-09-17T18:04:22.053ZWe use it for a lot of stuff:

Sometimes an article has different UTMs, and since it's shared on different platforms, and GA treats different UTSs to mean different pages, this results in separate pageviews counts, which can be misleading.
It will help a lot if GA provides a guidebook, or best-practice, for media companies and publishers so we can maximize efforts.,10,We know what articles and content that we should focus on. The Editorial team can focus on producing more quality stories.

It addresses questions like: "How many people are filling out our trial form?", "How many use this web page?", "Who's coming to our site and from where?" and more. It's mostly being used by the Marketing department, but is being used by some product teams to track key KPI's and determine the performance of prototypes or production products.,Wealth of data.

It's easy to get set up. Right out of the box, it requires no customization.,It doesn't think for the user much. It basically overwhelms them with information, which can be hard to digest and can lead to some false assumptions.
Oftentimes, nuanced questions are really hard to find good answers for. Something that should be simple like: "how many users logged in?" is often really difficult depending on how your web application is built.
Data visualization isn't very useful. The graphs seem useful at first, but honestly end up using the tables most of the time. Occasionally I'll spot some trends in the data vizualization, but it's pretty uncommon.,7,It's highlighted areas of improvement that can be made. It's hard to quantify it though.

Bottom barrel product for a bottom-barrel price (especially the free version). But to its credit, it can be cheap (or free).
GA can be routed through Google's Data Studio platform, which I believe is a far superior and significantly more intuitive tool.
The integration between Google Optimize and GA is pretty seamless and does provide a basic/cheap method of starting a testing program.,There were times where data was literally incorrect (not even close to being correct at times).
There is little to no tech support (obviously if you are using the free version especially). Adobe's tech support, in contrast, isn't amazing, but it at least exists.
GA's data sampling can lead to confusing or unhelpful results.
It may be the single least-intuitive tool I've ever used.
It's not built for A/B testing and personalization campaigns if that's what you're considering leveraging it for (in other words, it will be a bit duct-taped together to get it to do what you need it to do).
2 segment maximum is extremely limiting.
No ability to gather HIT-level insights.
Segment builder is cumbersome.,3,It wasn't great to use, but it would still probably have to be a positive ROI being it was free.
Although, the opportunity cost (hours spent doing something that could be done in Adobe Analytics in 5 minutes for example) could be apart of an argument that it was a negative ROI.,Adobe Analytics,1,Adobe Analytics, Adobe Target, OptimizelyVerified UserAnalyze your companies online presence with Google Analytics2019-09-11T15:02:17.353ZGoogle Analytics is being used by the marketing department and shared with the owners of the company.

This area could use some improvement.
We would like to see what search engine or browser they are using. If this were possible, we could enhance our web capabilities.
If we could have more information like where they are searching for us, this would be beneficial to understand our reach.,9,We have not been able to see a great return on the use of the Google Analytics. We primarily use it to improve our communications.

With goal tracking, it allows you to see conversion rate metrics (be they site registration, purchase, or whatever) across various landing pages or audience segments
It's very simple to create sets of queries and group them together in dashboards of key metrics and trends and share them with colleagues across the organization,Google Analytics does allow you to filter results based on a primary or secondary dimension (e.g. landing page and source) -- but it would be better if the user could pick finer grained segments utilizing more dimensions (e.g. "visitors from Canada who visited Landing Page X via Inbound Referral Link)
Comparing results over time (week on week, etc) should have shortcuts for common analyses (vs same day last week, vs same month last year, etc)
With Google Analytics (and all their products really), Google will change things by adding functionality or changing the names of concepts (recently they changed "Visits" to "Sessions") without so much as a peep alerting the user base. While most of the changes are for the better, a heads-up would be professional and appreciated.,8,We spend far less time assembling quick views of web data for ad hoc analysis than we otherwise would.
We are able to track website conversions at a fairly high granularity with far less effort than we would otherwise require
Because it's free we can give access to Google Analytics to all our employees and bring more transparency to our operational performance and enable the curious to discover new insights.,,6,1,Analyze web traffic (visits, pageviews) by source
Analyze site engagement (pageviews, time on site, bounce rate, etc..) by source and page type
Analyze conversion rates (site registrations, purchases, etc) by source and page type,We developed a widget that allows other sites to embed pieces our content (as a teaser to click through to our site). By setting up a separate Google Analytics instance for exclusive use by the widget, we can isolate views and clickthrough rates on the widget without having to filter them out of our other site traffic (which we would have to do by default everywhere otherwise). So my suggestion is make use of the ability to setup multiple Google Analytics instances where appropriate.
By using non-interaction events, we are able to measure engagement and time on pages that would otherwise count as bounces with zero duration. This is important for separating the effect of a true bounce (this page wasn't useful to the user and they immediately left) from a softer bounce (they came and read the page for 5 minutes but then didn't see anything else interesting and so left the site). We set a threshold internally and ping the GA server every 30 seconds or so but only send interaction events after a minute to ensure the person was really engaged before we "debounce" them.
With Universal Analytics, we're able to send analytics events from the server side of our application to the same Google Analytics instance, which can be very useful in avoiding client-side race conditions and other threading issues. UA can also be used for tracking across not just server (vs client/browser) but mobile apps as well. If you haven't upgraded your Google Analytics instance to Universal, you should.,We plan to make use of the audience segmentation features (to differentiate between behavior of registered vs non-registered users).

Vendor Reputation,I would not have spent as much time looking at KISSmetrics honestly. We may revisit it as an add-on for deeper dives into individual user behaviors but Google Analytics gives you a lot of runway for instrumenting, analyzing, and improving a site (or app) well before you need to think about replacing or adding to it.,8,If you've got a large or complex site that's dynamically generated, make use of the content groupings dimensions which will make it far easier to track behavior.
Instrumentation using custom dimensions is also recommended (for user IDs or other attributes about their user or their session or even experimental page treatments).,Some - we have done small customizations to the interface,No - the product does not support adding custom code,We built a wrapper around the client-side code that fires google analytics events to also fire them to other systems (like Pendo for product adoption tracking, Optimizely for A/B testing segmentation, etc), but no custom code within Google Analytics itself.,Analyzing traffic and its relative performance along multiple dimensions
Setting up dashboards of commonly reused analyses is quite easy,Analyzing traffic along two dimensions (and possibly filtering on either or both) is fairly cumbersome and requires too many clicks. For instance, looking at traffic by landing page type (a content grouping) and then narrowing down into traffic that came via SEO requires a bunch of repetitive steps (vs there being a shortcut dropdown for traffic source type as there is now for content grouping... ),Yes,8,Yes,Universal allows us to log events from the server side of our application more cleanly (and mobile in the future),Since they tend not to announce new features or interface changes before just springing them on the user base, who knows?,No,NoVerified UserGoogle Analytics - the best free tool for website behavior2018-11-14T02:57:17.886ZI love Google Analytics.

Because you run the risk of paralysis by analysis, one must pick their battles with Google Analytics. If you go in with a clear, concise set of objectives, and a competent technical supporting cast, you will succeed.
On the reverse side of the same coin, if you come in without a purpose, you run the risk of getting bogged down in all of the information without immediate relevance, and you may just leave behind this treasure trove of invaluable analytics in search of said relevance.,AWS Lambda, Magento, DrupalKyle ReicheltGoogle Analytics Improved our Constant Contact Campaigns2018-07-25T19:21:35.567ZOur constant contact relies mostly on Google Analytics in regards to measuring engagement with our brokers and agents, especially when it comes to bonus opportunities to bring in new business accounts to underwrite.
