The Future of Product Analytics

A recent Gartner® Market Guide notes “web, product, and digital experience analytics are no longer discrete, with many features overlapping and converging, blurring the lines between markets.”1 With this convergence well underway, many organizations are taking a hard look at their current solutions and thinking critically about their future investments in analytics.

Tools such as Google Analytics have traditionally focused on measuring the ROI of campaigns within the Google ecosystem and were not built as product analytics tools. With the new update to GA4,. These essential tools for product teams are why we continue to see customers like moving to Amplitude. Building a foundation for product growth begins with the right analytics solution that can help product and marketing teams understand what drives users to engage with your product, discover new audiences, test and iterate on new experiences, and quickly measure the impact of your digital investments.
