What differentiates Google Analytics from other similar products?
I've been using Google Analytics since 2010 and has been a good decade. The tracking is seamless and really powerful. Google Analytics has helped me shape campaigns, redesign versions of website , delete off low-functioning pages, set up regional manipulation, remarketing campaigns, etc. As mentioned earlier, I've been using Goal Setting feature as a regular to build my ads campaigns around the specific user journeys. It has performed very well till now.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
I have been using Google Analytics since 2010. And it's improving year on year. My major dependence on Google Analytics is to track the movement of people on my websites, especially when coupled with Ad. It helps me alter the ads in order to deliver better. Also, the remarketing feature is a bumper here. Simply, one of the best tools in Google Suite. Update: The analytics have gotten better since the last time. There integration is easier using the Universal code and Google tag manager.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Update: Google Analytics dashboard is much more exhaustive now. One can easily track, deduce and plan in accordance with any user metrics. I've been regularly using goals in conjunction with google ads in order to track the performance of my ads. On the other hand, GA4 seems to be a bit complicated for someone who has been dependent on GA since long. It could have been made easier with better backward compatibility.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
If you've been contemplating opting for an web-analysis tool then go for Google Analytics without a doubt. We do have other options like Zoho, etc but GA is very powerful and is free for people operating at a lower periphery. All the best.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Our organization uses Google Analytics to monitor the performance of our websites. You may learn a lot about your target market and their preferences with little effort. User experience and consumer page navigation are difficult to deduce from such broad demographic information. It's great to have access to traffic reports in near real time.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Although it is a great tool for the analytics and statistics of our sites, there are some things that could be improved such as the organization of the dashboard, it is a bit messy and somewhat difficult to order. They should add a Training / Implementation of Insights, the Report Details are somewhat basic and need a better level.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
At the very least, everyone should be familiar with Google Analytics because it's a fantastic free tool. The reporting may not be as comprehensive as some marketers would want, but it does provide sufficient information for you to draw important conclusions about the direction of your company. It's another resource for establishing a link between marketing efforts and financial success.
