What differentiates Google Analytics from other similar products?
Google analytic's ability to delve deep into website data using advanced analytics features such as event tracking, is what I believe sets it apart from other website analytics tools.. For example, with the Google analytics event tracking advanced feature, we have been able to move beyond just knowing how long a visitor is spending on particular parts of our website, to being able to know what they do while they are on any Part of the website.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
The real-time nature of Google analytics report data is my favourite part of this platform. Having access to follow our website traffic in real time has been most helpful when running specific promotional or marketing campaigns, for the purpose of tracking the effectiveness of such campaigns. Allowing us to make timely adjustments if necessary.
