Intro
Amplitude making moves on Google Analytics, a Shopify Audiences case study and benchmarking tools.
No one ever thought Google Analytics could be challenged...
Analytics vendors have pounced on the GA 3 to 4 transition and are beating their drums.
One of my favourite alternatives with big news this week is Amplitude...
They've really revved up the web analytics end of their offering with the release of their CDP this week.
Not only is it an excellent web analytics tool but they're a fully operational customer data platform allowing you to:
- Connect all your data sources in one place.
- Build powerful audiences.
- Unify customer data in one place
There are many other benefits I can't fit here.
They also have an incredible free plan with 10 Million hits per month. x10 the free plan of competitors.
Link to full release details below as well as some other goodies.
No issue next week as I'm off on holiday and taking some time out.
So see you in 2 weeks :)
P.S - If you find this valuable I'd really appreciate it if you could share it with one other person in your network.
