Google Data Studio: Easy to pick up, and super powerful
- Once the reports are set up, this definitely saves time on the regular reporting deadlines (monthly, biweekly, etc.)
- However, when you run into a roadblock while translating a current report into GDS (i.e. GDS doesn't have a feature you need), it's hard to work around it. So until GDS becomes extremely robust, there are still cases where it can't be used.

Easy and Free to use
- Save time by using Google Data Studio
- Make better decision using data provided from Google Data Studio
- All this is free! There is no cost to the business.

Google Data Studio : Free, Convenient, Easy to Use
- Google Data Studio, being no cost, has an infinite ROI.
April 27, 2021
Great for Tight Budgets or Simple Data Visualization
- Free, so the only investment is time
- Because it doesn't have native support of non-Google sources, it can cost more money than Tableau
- The time spent formatting the templates or building connectors can have a negative impact on ROI
- As a agency, charging for the reporting service is profitable after the first month or two after building the dashboard.

Serves its purpose well
- Time consuming to build all the reports and dashboards, but are valuable resource for sharing insights.
- Bringing data together from various sources allowed us to see correlations that may have gone unnoticed.

Data Studio is a very useful tool for every digital marketer and company that wants to keep track on their online performance

One of the amazing reporting tools from Google
- I would say we have had positive impacts. Initially we used excel for reporting, but it was not so user friendly, it did not have dynamic reporting and ease of sharing options. We were able to get analyze the data deeply and have dynamic reports with Data studio. Also, with the reports we were able to identify where we were going down, where we were performing badly.
