Google Data Studio

Vorteile

As an end user accessing Google Data Studio to review performance reports, what I like most is the ability to consolidate different reports in a visually compelling dashboard. The easy to use interface allows to quickly navigate reports and get at-a-glance insights on relevant KPIs and monitor trends.

Nachteile

Adapting to Google Data Studio has been a learning curve, especially coming from previous reporting software. Interface is clear, but to customize it in order to fits my needs took longer than I expected. Collaborative aspects are beneficial, there was an adjustment period in coordinating with team members who were also learning the platform.

Vorteile

Thanks to the drag-and-drop features of Google Data Studio, we were able to generate meaningful charts and graphs for many of the ideas that we had regarding various AI projects in a very short time.

The platform provided a lot of data source connections which helped us to evaluate performance and measure KPIs.

Nachteile

Some advanced aspects like calculated fields were quite difficult to grasp at first, which made us a bit slower than optimal.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Google Data Studio

Vorteile

Free and easy to use. Integrates with other google software

Nachteile

Not as advanced as some other softwares so it doesn’t allow real time updates

Vorteile

It's a good tool to link different databases and create tables and graphs. We can play on data and create proper dashboards.

Nachteile

It's sometimes hard to mixed the datas and get the view we had in mind. Representing deep level of campaign is hard.

Vorteile

I love the flexibility that Google Data Studio provides. Most other data visualisation tools are very structured while data Studio is flexible which makes it great for aesthetically designing the dashboard. It allows me to easily create dashboard for my stakeholders as well as small business owners who can become data driven.

Nachteile

Slow, GA4 connector, paid connectors, there's no good user journey visualisation and now there seems to be some limitations of the number of charts I can add.

Vorteile

Google Looker Studio ( formerly Google Data Studio ) is easy to use and has an intuitive user interface that allows the average user to create and consume reports and dashboards. It integrates seamlessly with google analytics and workspace applications like Sheets, docs, and Google Drive. It facilitates self-service data analysis and business intelligence practices.

Nachteile

Google Looker Studio ( formerly Google Data Studio ) has a relatively slow performance and limited features regarding data connectors and visualization. Although the paid version has advanced features, it comes at a high cost with more difficulties and barriers to scale.

Easy to connect spreadsheets to do quick data analysis if you are a beginner in data analysis. It's also a very good tool if you're more experienced and need to do more advanced reporting.

Nachteile

Sometimes it can be slow. Some report fail and it's not always easy to know what is failing.

Vorteile

The most highly appreciated feature of Google Data Studio is the ability to integrate multiple data sources in one report.

Nachteile

Recently Google Data Studio seems to be having a lot of glitches. The charts will randomly be missing or the data will no longer be connected.

I like how easy it was to pull data from all Google native channels like ads and analytics. Using some tutorial, you can create custom dashboards according to your need. Best is that its free.

Nachteile

Getting data from not google native sources was impossible for me. I didn't manage to set it up. Initial deployment requires some googling or otherwise you wont figure it out.

Vorteile

I love that it's a tool directly from the same company where I get most of my data already. I use Google Analytics and Google Ads heavily in my business, so it's awesome to have a data analysis and reporting tool that has stable connections to both of these. Being able to integrate both, and other integrations into the same dashboard is a big plus.

And the depth of features has really gotten pretty large over the last couple of years. Unless you need extremely advanced calculations and reporting, Data Studio will probably suit your needs. The ability to sort your data and fine-tune exactly how metrics are displayed is cool.

It doesn't hurt that Data Studio is free! These kinds of tools are often very expensive, but Data Studio allows smaller studios like mine to get in the game for little to no investment.

Nachteile

It's a bit of a pain to get set up, and to fully integrate. The documentation, while large, is not easy to follow in my opinion.

Adding a data source and then creating a dashboard using a specific source can be a little hit and miss. It shouldn't take 3 or 4 screens of options to tell my dashboard that I want to get data from a specific source. Once you get past it, it's fine. But setting up a new dashboard, and organizing dashboards, is cumbersome.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Google Data Studio

Vorteile

Data Studio is a great choice if you are already on a Google stack. It is (or can be) virtually free and it offers plenty of flexibility for light analytics or old-fashioned data profiling. I have used it with some success for enterprise-grade analytics, but it is easy to run up against data limitations. It's generally very quick (especially with BI Engine) and it works well with other Google tools (such as GA).

Nachteile

The product feels a bit cheap compared to its competitors. I found it difficult to manage assets across multiple teams. We ran into multiple issues with ownership (granted, our own fault) that we wouldn't have encountered with, e.g., Power BI or Tableau.

Vorteile

I love how easy is to learn to use this platform. From the very beggining you can set up your dash and start analyzing metrics without any coding skills.

Nachteile

The Visual Design Capabilities. Sometimes there are projects that need special fonts to create the dash.

Vorteile

Google Data Studio is very easy to use with BigQuery's connection : we can connect directly tables, views or custom query.

Nachteile

Before integration with looker, we were limited with left join between tables (no inner join and no right join)

Vorteile

combining data from different tools in a single sheet.

Nachteile

Sometimes paid connectors for Google services such as GMB have to be used

Vorteile

The great thing about Google Data Studio is that it allows you to customize your dashboard the way you want it making it very tailored to individual needs.

Nachteile

I think the least thing I like about Google Data Studio is that it is quite complicated until you get used to it. It take a while to understand what you can actually do and make it tailored to you.

Vorteile

Google Data Studio has helped me turn heaps of analytics data into something my managers and co-workers can see and understand. There is a huge variety of graphs, charts, and elements at your disposal to make an attractive data report, which can then be downloaded or shared with interested parties. The system allows you to go as simple or advanced as you need to and you're only limited by your time and patience. And the best part is it's all free!

Nachteile

There is a slight learning curve, as Data Studio borrows data from Google Analytics to populate charts. Sometimes data won't transfer correctly, leading to broken charts.

Vorteile

It's enables you to safe and economise in terms of data usage.

Nachteile

It sometimes consume your data before you finished searching for a particular content.

Vorteile

The thing I like is that It is free and easy to connect easily to make visualization just by doing drag and drop

Nachteile

As the application is open source We faced one issue while connecting redshift data, and when we asked for support there was a clear answer they cannot support it as it is open source

Vorteile

Have been using data studio since 3 years and using it to get data from Google sheets, Facebook ads, LinkedIn ads, Google ads for data visualization for the management.

Nachteile

I tried using two dimensions in data studio but wasn't able to group one dimension on the same.

Vorteile

Google Data Studio is an excellent reporting tool that offers an impressive range of features. I particularly appreciate the ability to create customizable reports and dashboards that can be easily shared with team members and clients. The drag-and-drop interface is intuitive and user-friendly, making it easy to create visually appealing reports with minimal effort.

Nachteile

One of the major downsides of Google Data Studio is its limited integration with non-Google data sources, which can be a significant issue for businesses that use multiple data sources. While the tool offers a few connectors for third-party data sources, the options are not as extensive as other reporting tools in the market.

Vorteile

For developing interactive data visualizations, I found Google Data Studio to be user-friendly and intuitive. Its ability to link to a number of data sources, such as Google Sheets, Google Analytics, and BigQuery, is among the features I enjoyed most about it. Because of this, building reports and dashboards can be done with a great deal of flexibility and customization. Additionally, it takes relatively little effort to generate professional-looking visualizations because of the drag-and-drop feature of the interface. Overall, I discovered Google Data Studio to be a fantastic tool for anyone wishing to interpret huge data sets and provide insights in a concise and attractive manner.

Nachteile

I have been using Google Data Studio for some time now, and overall I have found it to be a very powerful and user-friendly tool for creating interactive data visualizations. I have been able to connect multiple data sources and have been able to customize the visualizations as per my requirement. The drag-and-drop functionality makes it very easy to create professional-looking visualizations with minimal effort. The interface is easy to navigate, and the built-in templates are a great starting point for creating new reports and dashboards. While I don't have any major issues with the software, if I had to pick something, it would be that the number of built-in chart types is limited and I would have loved more options to customize my visualizations. But this is not a big issue and overall, I am very satisfied with Google Data Studio and would recommend it to others looking for a powerful data visualization tool.

Vorteile

The visualization of our customers progress and the map of our target audience.

Nachteile

The delay in loading and visualizing some information.

Vorteile

Datastudio is an incredibly powerful data analytics tool. It's so much more than just a tool for Google Analytics dashboards: it allows you to quickly create stunning visualizations, set up automated reports and monitor key performance indicators in real-time when connected with simple data sources as google sheets. If I need to analyze complex datasets and share meaningful insights quickly, I use it.

Nachteile

When it comes to create particular data cards, it is handy to use pre-calculated values. Wich can be tricky!

Vorteile

The integration that can be obtained with various google products such as your email and sheets is great.

Nachteile

The integration cannot work with your Google account if you have Advanced Protection. The dashboard functionality is difficult and unintuitive to use.

Vorteile

Ability to create any type of data visualization that will help you work on your product strategy. These reports are also useful when presenting a quarterly report

While it's a powerful tool, the learning curve can be steep, especially for some staffmembers. Additionally, it lacks some advanced features that more specialized data visualization tools might offer. Longing for more AI tools to work with.

Vorteile

The ability to manipulate the multitude of data provided and present it to clients, customers, staff, and executives is unmatched. The reporting and analytical fields that are covered are second to none and we wouldn't survive as a business without Data Studio.

Getting new users set up takes longer than anticipated as well as once we've created our custom dashboards and custom reports, but that's all semantics at this rate.

Has best business intelligence and reporting features
It makes data visualization easy and is affordable too.
