(1-4 of 4)Companies can't remove reviews or game the system. Here's why
I mostly use it for my clients' SEO needs. There usually is not marketing or other relevant department, so I am responsible. Business problems it addresses are data/website monitoring.
- The "new" SC's Overview is great for sharing with clients as it's a simplified presentation of different data with graphs.
- Performance is my turf. It is designed for me at a glance to recognize the peaks and valleys of traffic. Clicks v. Impressions remains something central to SEO and other marketing efforts.
- This is surely subjective, but as long as I could, I used the old SC but now that I am forced to just use the new, there still is a bit of a learning curve. Again, this is not a fair complaint as in time all will be forgotten, but I really do miss the old version.
- One thing I do not like is the loss of the Manual URL Submission. I understand why it's been removed, but sometimes I am doing refreshes of pages and want that new version visited and reindexed ASAP rather than have to wait for Google to revisit.

- ROI for me always boils down to time taken for any given task. SC allows me to quickly get the data I need to share, or at least glance at.
Although StatCounter is more like Google Analytics than Search Console, it still has a lot of overlap. StatCounter is relatively small, so it does not provide anywhere near the functions of SC. But, it's good to have a secondary source of traffic and other related data, one other than what Google is informing.

Necessary - But Not Great!
I use Google Search Console to support public-facing websites within a single unit in our organization. Linked with Google Tag Manager, Analytics and Ads, it provides a powerful resource for us to: Identify Google indexing and crawling errors, track our organic search performance, identify and address optimization issues, submit sitemaps to Google, check security status of the site, demote links and maps that we no longer want promoted, among others.
- Demote sitelinks
- Submit sitemaps to Google
- Review structured data elements on the
- Listing external and internal links on the site
- Disavow bad links
- Fetching as Google
- Poor UI
- Significant data discrepancy between Analytics and Search Console
- Unclear messaging around when a sitemap was submitted and when it was processed
- Terrible support
- Massive learning curve

- Free to use, has low ROI
- Just the beginning of the funnel, mandatory to have a CRM to track how users came to the site
- Can provide useful ROI analytics, only in conjunction with other tools. Nothing in the tool itself is useful on its own.
Again, Google Search Console is mandatory if you're a search marketer or developer. It is a free tool and it links directly to Google, so it's hard to not recommend. Although, if you want more actionable (and often cleaner) data, then using one of the above tools is necessary. I particularly recommend Moz and Screaming Frog due to their low cost and great metrics.

Google Search Console Keeps My Sites Healthy
Google Search Console is used across my whole organization and my client base. I use it to find crawl errors, test structured data, check the links to and within my sites, and much more. Google Search Console helps me keep my sites healthy and findable on the web. I have Google Search Console connected to Google Analytics and to third-party tools like SEMRush to give me a detailed view of how my sites are seen and indexed by Google.
- Google Search Console lets me know if there are any crawl errors on my sites, so that I can fix them.
- Google Search Console tells me when I have errors in my structured data. This is particularly helpful, because structured data can be extremely intricate. It's nice to have Google looking at the whole thing while I'm lost in the details.
- Google Search Console helps me keep track of the links coming to my sites and the links within them. Both back-linking and cross-linking are necessary strategies for good SEO, so I appreciate being able to check them at a glance.
- Google Search Console can be difficult to use when you first start. There's a bit of a learning curve, but Google also does a nice job of providing training and help docs.
- As with anything that involves Google, I always wish that I could contact a human being when I have questions I can't answer or problems I can't solve. Unfortunately, contacting Google is next to impossible sometimes.
- Google Search Console does an excellent job of detecting errors in structured data, but it can be very difficult to find instructions for fixing those errors.

Should be part of any SEO toolkit
Google Search Console is used by several teams across the whole of the organization. These teams generally sit within Marketing departments. The tool is used primarily by those involved in SEO efforts, but it has also proven beneficial for detecting user experience issues that happen to impact SEO such as broken links on websites.
- Google Search Console is a good resource for learning which keywords are driving organic traffic to our websites. We realize that much of that data is actually not made available by Google, but even the data we get is worthwhile.
- GSC is also the primary method we use for submitting brand new or significantly revised pages to Google for indexing.
- GSC also helps us identify issues on our websites which impact not just SEO but also other areas.
- As mentioned, the keyword data available is far from complete. Like most people involved in SEO, I would love to see all the other data not shown.
- It's unfortunate that users can only look back at the last 90 days of data at any point in time. Fortunately we are able to integrate GSC with other tools that store this data for future reference.
- GSC does occasionally flag warnings that have been applied to our sites' presences in search results. Often, these warnings are unnecessary and GSC makes it possible to have them reviewed and removed, but it is annoying that unnecessary warnings are visible even for a short time.

- Since the tool is free to use, there is only positive impact to report - no negative!
- Our business objectives include organic traffic growth, and since we rely on SEO tools like GSC to achieve that growth, it's a great tool to have.
- Broken link reporting is also useful as a broken link might sometimes be to a page that is intended to generate revenue.
To be honest, I have not spent much time in Bing Webmaster Tools as Bing is a much less significant search engine compared to Google. It's something we only really use for major changes to a website, and it is fine for those types of task. Google Search Console is my 'go-to' tool of this type as it does pretty much everything I expect from such a tool.
