    You need to go through the metrics and dimensions in the tool to understand their use cases. We had a training session organized, and took me and my colleagues some time to fully utilize its features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

    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.

    The software is a massive pain in the bum to use. Sure you can connect your data sources. And you can get data from those sources onto a single page/dashboard. But theres no guarantee itll accurately display the data and combine it correctly. I gave up using GDS because the combined data was always wrong and it was incredibly difficult to actually get it to combine the data in a useful way. I switched to a paid tool that does it soo much better and far more easily!

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

    Compare to the competition like Power BI and Tableau it misses a lot of functionalities, which makes very difficult to create complicated dashboards.

    Overall: Overall, we are very pleased with Google Data Studio. Obviously, the platform itself is inexpensive and easy to use, but the connectors do add up to be somewhat pricy. It is very functional and is so helpful in terms of creating live dashboards to send to clients. Also great for internal reporting to make sure we are keeping up with client performance throughout the month.

    Overall: I had a big concern that I would no be able to use Microsoft Power BI (budget issue), but in the end of the road Google Data Studion was a good surprise. Good price, everything you need to put a high quality data project running. No issues. In another company for example, it would be my choice.
