Major Changes to Google Analytics

An Update in Analytics

Google is replacing the current Universal Analytics with Google Analytics 4 as the default for digital analytics measurement. This change is not optional and by July 2023, GA4 will be the only option available.

GA4 has several key features, including:

  • support for both mobile and web analytics
  • a significantly different reporting interface
  • native User ID integration
  • improved privacy controls

The New Platform

GA4 enables you to gain a comprehensive understanding of consumer behavior across both web and app platforms by utilizing first-party, modeled data. It comes with advanced machine learning features, actionable reporting, and new integrations that aid you in keeping up with the ever-changing privacy and technology landscapes.

Enhancing the Data Experience

Moreover, tracking a visitor’s journey is now simpler as Google Tag Manager is not necessary. With GA4, you can combine web and app data in a single property, making it easier to track and compare pageview metrics. Upgrading to GA4 is crucial to staying up-to-date with the latest digital analytics practices, especially as Universal Analytics will no longer receive updates or improvements.
