Google Analytics displays real-time user data such as user behavior, location, time spent on a page, and device (mobile or desktop). It also saves analytics information, such as how many users visited my site in a given period. It also keeps information such as where the visitor came from to visit my site (e.g. Organic or Social); I can also see how much of my traffic came from organic sources and how much came from other sources.

Google Analytics is the best tool for understanding my website traffic. The platform gives detailed information on the number of visitors, demographics, and online conduct. Custom reporting allows me to build personalized reports based on my individual goals and KPIs. Google Analytics is a must-have tool for everyone who wants to maximize the potential of their website or online business.
What do you dislike most about this product?
There are too many configuration options available for Google Analytics, and I couldn’t find any documentation by Google for beginners, so it may be a little complicated for beginners, though they have a pretty good support team that offers support via live chat, email, and phone support and can help with the configurations.

It allows me to track and analyze user behavior on our websites, as well as gauge engagement levels and find areas for improvement.
