Overall Satisfaction with Google Tag Manager

it is being used by our media department. I familiarized myself with Google Tag Manager because I used it in a previous role, and because I wanted to stay up-to-date to be able to provide my client with useful and relevant information.
  • Training methods are very helpful
  • There are many resources and cases to use as examples
  • The platform is very user intuitive
  • Some of the resources are somewhat circular, and you may not be able to find a resource for your example
  • There are many ways to do things, but sometimes it makes it harder to train
  • In some instances, you learn how to do things, but maybe not why or the importance of the action.
  • I did not have access to that sales data for the client, so I cannot confirm ROI metrics
  • I did not have access to that sales data for the client, so I cannot confirm ROI metrics
  • I did not have access to that sales data for the client, so I cannot confirm ROI metrics
I have not used any other products, but was very pleased with the GTM offerings.
GTM is applicable if you are trafficking multiple banners or campaigns per month for a given client. I found it to be useful in both the trafficking, monitoring, and reporting.
