Google Analytics is best suited for companies that want to understand a deeper level of where conversions are coming from and the audience demographics behind it. However, GA can have an early ceiling for questions that require exporting and joining data sets that should be possible within the platform. Overall, it is a great platform but requires custom work to get its full potential.
