Easy to obtain information on web traffic.

What differentiates Google Analytics from other similar products?
The best way to have a comprehensive web analysis is using Google Analytics, due to its great capacity to capture all visits accurately and because of its ability to offer monitoring of the entire web. One of the most notable differences compared to other platforms is that Google Analytics offers a real-time counter, which captures all visits at the exact moment and reflects them in the monitoring statistics. I believe that this real-time capture allows us to quickly analyze the growth or decline that we have in our visits faster than using other platforms that capture visits in a long time.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
What I like the most about Google Analytics is that it offers me perfect synchronization with all Google services, which helps me stay informed 24 hours a day about the progress or status of visits to my website. I find this timing to be perfect, highly automated, and also quickly reflect hits at exactly the right time. Other things that I like about Google Analytics is that with this platform I can have an excellent accounting of the sales that I have made from my website, and which users become customers, at the exact moment. Google Analytics undoubtedly gives me a very functional service.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Google Analytics offers me an automated service that collects all the information on the activity of a website, daily, weekly and monthly, to do automatic analysis, however, I do not like to use this function because sometimes it is very inaccurate with the final analysis information, and I prefer to do these analyzes manually to make sure I have an exact number of visits, views and customers.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Google Analytics is the perfect platform for all those companies that need support in the management and monitoring of a website, I highly recommend this platform because it allows the data collected to be viewed instantly, and to have clear information about visits and general activity of a web page. Google Analytics allows you to view new customers and also capture the views of the publications, so it will be very easy to obtain information about web traffic with the help of Google Analytics.

What differentiates Google Analytics from other similar products?
Since I started working in this company, we have used several web analysis platforms, which have given us excellent data management and have provided perfect monitoring of web traffic, however, the use of Google Analytics has given its touch of difference by providing us with a freer network where we can have a better management of our data. Google Analytics offers a totally stable network where different employees can have access, all of them can manage the web traffic process, and in this way, make it more productive.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
One of the things that have most caught my attention about Google Analytics is that this platform offers me a service in real time, with which I can have excellent monitoring of each of the movements made on my website and on the visitors of the same. I can have the ability to have an overview of each of the visitors and the clicks that my sections have on the web, and I can also maintain an interaction with visitors 24 hours a day. It's great to be able to view everything in real time without having to wait a long time for the platform to process customer information.
What do you dislike most about this product?
One of the things that I would criticize negatively about Google Analytics is that it is not a very well optimized system for the study and exact monitoring of the clicks and impressions of an Ads inserted by Google. Google Analytics is not able to accurately count clicks, causing us to not be able to insert Google Ads advertising due to the low precision in the accounting of clicks and views. This is the only negative factor that I have noticed about Google Analytics, since most of it works perfectly.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
My Google Analytics recommendation would be a recommendation for any company that needs to have accessibility to a platform that provides constant information on each movement of the web page. Google Analytics, despite the very imprecise operation that it has in Google Ads, has excellent precision for counting visits and to be able to know where web traffic comes from. It is a very orderly platform and capable of allowing teamwork which helps to supervise this website.

- Reliable
- Enables Productivity
- Trustworthy
