Overall Satisfaction with Looker
We use Looker to plug and play with other Google products, such as porting data from Search Console or Google Analytics, and even Google Sheets to join data sources. When GA4 launched, it became a lot more tricky for us to get visibility into the data we needed, so Looker was the ideal solution for us. We've created custom reports with dashboards and used templates readily available, which is a great plug-and-play option for setting up views quickly. It's also straightforward to do more complex things that we'd usually need Data Analysts to do in SQL, like joining data tables, because adding tags and categories to imported data with data joins is possible.
- Easy to set up.
- Shareable and end-user ease of use.
- Data joining is a particular highlight for tagging up URLs.
- Plug and play in many cases.
- Menus and navigation for set up can be a bit confusing for first time users.
- Add the ability to manually change the canvas size rather than setting it in pixels, which is counterintuitive.
- Team better informed on meaningful metrics.
- Reporting across the team, efficiency up at least 50%.
- Decision making for strategic decisions improved efficiency.
Looker is an off-the-shelf, free tool for Google business users. Other than the internal cost of time to build, we had no costs to set up what we needed to do. Knowledge sharing internally and using templates greatly reduced this cost, making the overall cost very low.
