Google Analytics Reviews

I wish it was more customizable. For instance i have multiple sites connected by default. That’s great since they go hand in hand, but wish I could separate them. Also wish I could set all the pages exactly the way i want them instead of having to go through a bunch of different ones. For instance a smaller site like mine cares more about the individual user than bulk activity. However GoogleAnalytics is still very useful and is better than most other apps ive used... so overall im satisfied.

The mobile app was my go to first thing in the morning in order to quickly look at the previous days stats. However the new user experience seems to have made it more clunky to use. You need to refavorite your views and then it very easy to in favorite by tapping the wrong location. When switching view the report your on Isn’t saved so now it takes multiple clicks to get to it again. When you’re checking a fair number of site. We used to take under 5 minds have now become a 15 to 20 min process This clunkiness is also making me hesitate is exploring GoogleAnalytics further. Really hoping the team studies the past experience and tries to build the good part of that back into this

Google Analytics provides incredibly powerful and meaningful data. GoogleAnalytics is better than it's ever been. Relevant information is presented on the front page.

All the detailed tracking is available in a well organized menu structure.

Think about how you use GoogleAnalytics... I make important decisions with my team while logged into the full version working at my desk. GoogleAnalytics is for quickly checking your data and it serves it's propose well.

I'm pretty horrified about what passes for good UX these days.

GoogleAnalytics is poorly organized, hard to view important data, and presents me with mostly useless information in a confusing format. This is not a useful tool. This is a kitchen sink of features fitted into a boring design template that I can hardly use because I feel like I can't get to important data easily.

Google stop letting robots design your software. Give it some personality and make it more digestible for humans. Is this really the best you can do for a flagship product? Gmail app redux is what this is. Why does google think applying the same UX methodologies to analytics is the same as it is for gmail? They are two very different products with different needs.

Use it all the time to help me understand what actions I'm taking on various platforms affect my conversion rates given a specific time period. Also used its data points to help totally rebuild my new website—driving my average conversion rates from 3% to 12%. On a good day my conversion rates are now 42% of net new traffic. That's stellar performance and you can't improve what you don't measure. So GoogleAnalytics is very helpful with the measuring piece.

It's fantastic how well the data is presented. Real time data, and filtering & segmenting works really well. Provides really nice insights through some of the default options provided. The only issue I have is for custom events - on desktop you can click to refine by category, action and label in any order. Super useful for single page apps where we leverage custom events heavily - but I can't quite figure out how to get a view of labels for a particular category/action combination on mobile app.

I love that I can check in real time who is visiting my website from where and how many times they’ve seen it. Being able to see which pages are visited most and the search engine hits really helps me out a lot! I just wish GoogleAnalytics was organized better and easier to understand, some of the terms I had to Google (ha ha) to understand. I am very thankful GoogleAnalytics is free and I will can you use every day, I appreciate this at being free so very much thank you Google!!!

I love everything about GoogleAnalytics and it really shows you the important inner workings of what is going on on your website! They make it so easy and organized! There is some of the information I don't use, that isn't relevant to my page specifically, but I could see how others would find additional information just as useful. So much to learn about your own page!!!

Good insights and I like that you can go back in time. We can compare traffic to the same time last year, for example, or easily see when we had peaks or slow times right from my phone. I’m addicted to the real time updates. Had an issue where the weekly view stopped updating. I uninstalled and reinstalled GoogleAnalytics and now it’s working again. Overall very happy.

Dear Google App Team and Managers,

The previous version of the Analytics App was great. But this version is unusable. Sorry, but true.
The problem is that once we download 4.0 we can not go back. Need option to revert to old version inside App. Soon.
Or update App store back to 3.8.
Some feedback. Sure millions will agree:
-UX/UI is crowded
-Not enough white space to easily read numbers.
- Doesnt show full numbers (ie 3456) now just 3.4k. Not as useful
-No number differential on comparison. Only % (which kills the value of data).
- Graph options limited.
-no explore option in main menu
-completely lost dashboard. No ability to move dashboard items to the top
-many many more
I highly suggest you revert back to 3.8 asap. Google Ads clients are spending $$ and need to watch Google Analytics on an hourly basis. The Mobile app is extremely important to Google Ads advertisers and millions of small and large business. Help!

As an online news publisher, a tool like this is invaluable. With the real time statistics we can gauge our particular story is doing instantly. We can show these numbers to advertisers by pulling out a phone.

There’s a lot we don’t use like campaigns and e-commerce and we’re glad they put that at the bottom.

The best part? It’s free. We think that’s worth five stars on its face.

I recently accidentally updated all apps and was surprised to see how unbelievably bad the new version is from an end user experience. I don’t need most of what analytics provides, just a few key points including city and region, page depth and engagement duration. In the old version it was fairly easy to access and find these things, but this mess of an interface is ridiculously frustrating. Where the previous version was fairly intuitive to use, this version is so cluttered and unintuitive that it is basically useless to me. It is so infuriating it triggered a review from me.

I use Analytics every day whether it’s in the office, or at home for my business. Shows you all the relevant data you need to evaluate your users and how they’re interacting with web pages.

The coolest thing on the planet was when I first came into Analytics and saw I had customers in India, Australia, Saudi Arabia, UK, Israel, etc. Technology is amazing and Google is at the forefront. Nothing bad to say about GA.

It would be good if google had a improvement page which mainly helps sites rank higher and better improve its, texts, pages and what you must add on their engine... what for? You might have a hard a time finding and improving your site which can be a drag... If you had the creators of the search engine rate your site and provide helpful info is great.

Thanks

Truth is this is a 5 Star app based on its functionality. However I cannot give it more than 4 stars because it still lacks iPhone X support almost a year after the phone debuted!

This is the only major app I use that hasn’t been updated, it’s really quite ridiculous that Google can’t allocate the resources necessary to update this. Even apps by tiny companies that I use have all been updated!

Google please update GoogleAnalytics, so that it’s truly worthy of 5 Stars.

***FINALLY UPDATED FOR IPHONE X SUPPORT AS OF 9-8-18. THIS IS NOW A 5 STAR APP. THANK YOU GOOGLE!***

***Updated on 8/3 with new interface. ABSOLUTELY HORRIFIC!!!! Google turned this into a putrid app. Refresh on real time screen does not work! Same on my iPad. At least turning the phone to landscape forces a refresh, this does not work on iPad! Google needs to fix GoogleAnalytics immediately! Did they even test this?????***

How Accurate are These statistics? When I’m on my wordpress control panel and view my traffic it always shows different numbers than what google analytics tells me the Wordpress analytics look too good to be true but it’s directly connected to my website other than this I love the mobile app and being able to see live audiences while on the go would give 5/5 stars if I wasn’t seeing different data it just makes me wonder what’s right and wrong

If you are looking for an easy button, pay someone to do this for you. If you want to spend a few minutes to figure it all out, you will not be disappointed. It’s not simple but it’s so worth the time and money you will save by learning it yourself. This does require a little technical knowledge.

I use GoogleAnalytics every day to spot changes in traffic on my apps and websites. The new version brings the most important information to the front in a clean mobile experience for when you're on the go and can't access the desktop version of Google Analytics. Update: Please make a widget!

This Google analytics app is terrific, BUT an amazing feature would be if you can get real-time push notification alerts whenever someone is on your personal or business website that is being tracked by google Analytics.

And/Or The ability to CUSTOMIZE any amount of people ranging from 1 to whatever and be push notified if x amount of people are on your website in REAL TIME.

Thanks!

The Google Analytics website is shamefully nonfunctional on mobile browsers. Turns out GoogleAnalytics is even worse. Lack of landscape mode on an iPad app is in itself unforgivable, but everything about GoogleAnalytics suggests it was slapped together without the slightest regard for user experience. It remains impossible to use Google Analytics productively outside of a traditional desktop experience. In 2018, going on 2019. Unbelievable.

It’s pretty clear glancing around GoogleAnalytics store page that Google pays good money for good reviews. Shame they don’t just put those funds towards app development.

The only possible way you can rate GoogleAnalytics highly if you are some sort of “recriational medicine”. Otherwise the number of positive ratings are simply don’t make any sense. This is a convoluted, useless, confusing, disorganized, mess. All I want to do is create a dashboard where I can see the country, city, and service provider. This seem to be an impossible mission. Yes, I am aware that I can start tapping menus left and right, and keep switching to various displays until I see the countries, then do this again to see the cities, then again to see hthe service providers. I have no understanding why is this simple task seem so impossible or convoluted.

This is not the first Google app where G seem to create a disorganized mess out of simple things.

I manage several web sites with Google Analytics. I view them all in the same app. When I change from one Google ID to another, it shows me the data for the website that corresponds to the ID I chose. But the top of GoogleAnalytics looks exactly the same — I can’t tell which site I’m on until I dig into specific report data. Please display the current website at the top of the screen.

Also, for the Custom Date Range, please add an end date of “Today.”

Thanks!
