Overall Satisfaction with Google Data Studio

We are currently using it in our marketing department to visualize data from our websites.
We connected the platform with Google Analytics, so we are able to create graphs and dashboards super easily, compared to exporting the data and creating graphs in PowerPoint as it was done before. It allows us to focus on the data, rather than fetching the information.
  • General user friendliness of the platform.
  • Straight forward integration with Google Analytics - no table manipulations needed.
  • Easy to add filters on a page or graph level.
  • Integration with Facebook ads and LinkedIn ads is not super easy. We need to go through a third party tool.
  • Sometimes it takes time to load the data.
  • Doesn't work super well on all browsers - although never had issues using Chrome.
  • Saved a lot of time on exporting the data since everything is now automated so it allows us to be more efficient.
  • Allows to focus more on data analysis.
  • Issues connecting with other platforms like Marketo, Facebook ads, LinkedIn ads, etc.
There's a lot of documentation online and a big community of users that could be helpful.
I never had to contact their support team.

Yes

Would you buy Looker Studio again?

Yes

I actually recommended Google Data Studio to other departments in our company. I think it's a great tool to easily create visuals out of data from Google analytics. No major technical skills are needed.

I wouldn't say less appropriate, but maybe a bit harder to integrate with the ads platforms, we need to go through a third party.
