Free cross-platform website and app analytics
Google Analytics is strongest as free first-party measurement. It needs Search Console, a rank tracker, or an SEO suite for search-specific research and diagnostics.
Google Analytics collects event-based website and app data, reports customer journeys and conversions, and connects measurement to advertising and data platforms. It is a measurement product, not a keyword, content, rank-tracking, technical-audit, or GEO suite.
Good fit for Organizations that need first-party website and app behavior, conversion, attribution, and campaign measurement
Google Analytics Standard is free. Google Analytics 360 is the enterprise edition and uses custom sales pricing.
