Overall Satisfaction with Google BigQuery

We use Google BigQuery as a data warehouse to pull data from analytics platforms such as Google Analytics. This allows us to create various tables containing the exact data various parts of the business need. We can then create dashboards for end-users internally. It especially answers our needs in terms of user behaviour and engagement. Our data capabilities are reinforced and much more scalable.
  • Syncing with Google products, e.g. Looker studio. Easy to create dashboards when putting a Google BigQuery data table as data source.
  • Scalability. It allows many opportunities across the business.
  • It's easy enough to write SQL statements front-end to explore the data tables.
  • Interface difficult to understand for new users.
  • Not much support provided.
  • Having to wait roughly 24 hours before getting the data from Google Analytics into Google BigQuery. A shorter time would be great.
  • Not really involved with the finance side. But I am aware the solution is quite cost-effective.

Google BigQuery is suited to easily sync/connect different Google products for analytics purposes. Google BigQuery is a great data warehouse if a business use Google Analytics. It also allows more autonomy to various end users with diverse technical knowledge to create dashboards independently in Google Data Studio (now Looker Studio).
