Overall Satisfaction with Google Analytics
Our 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. We noticed that since analyzing our outreach through Google, it's helped us pinpoint where we could improve in order to get more of a response and become more personalized to our biggest agents.
- It's a great platform for mobile app analytics and not only on desktop/website
- It's a good free option but also the paid version is not outrageous
- There is a learning curve and not much support or guidance
- The free version doesn't analyze as many data sources as our previous IBM analytics
- We've gotten higher agent participation through constant contact analysis
- We spent a lot of time with third parties learning how to use it
- Its mobile functions save time that we can then use to focus on attracting more agents
We wanted to try out a new program as IBM analytics was a bit pricey and our company has been trying to cut in areas of our budget in order to provide service for recent hurricane claims and to upgrade offices in the Northeast. This was a good solution to the budget issue, but it's still a new implementation.

The price was the highest selling point to us as we were using an expensive software beforehand.
We would have a team test it out before getting rid of our old methods before adopting a new, free one.
Google Analytics Implementation
- Moving from our old program to this one as many people were comfortable with the other and there was a curve in getting used to this
