Assistent Seo Manager at RTDS
Have improved decision-making with effective reporting
Several positive aspects about the product stand out as advantages. Valuable insights can be gained from the unsampled reports available in the product. The cloud type needs to be specified whether it's public, private, or hybrid. The overall rating for Google Analytics 360 is 9 out of 10, where 10 represents the best product.
Gertrude  Maisha - PeerSpot reviewer
Project Manager at UPS
Centralized data has unified profiles and now drives more accurate targeting and reporting
The great audience-building property makes Tealium Customer Data Hub ideal for real-time marketing initiatives. It also helps us to interact with our internal tracking system and our analytics suppliers. Tealium iQ makes tag management super easy, especially across multiple sites, and in my experience, it is one of the best features Tealium Customer Data Hub offers. I love how it stitches data from different sources in real time, making segmentation much more accurate. The built-in consent management platform helps a lot with staying compliant and managing user preferences centrally. All of these features are very great because they mainly help to unify and activate client data across CRM, billing, and marketing systems, specifically tag management, real-time data stitching, and the consent management platform. Our personalization and targeting have improved significantly with cleaner data, showing the positive impact of Tealium Customer Data Hub. Finance and business development now get better reporting from unified client profiles. Having one place to manage tags and privacy preferences has saved us both time and trouble.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The User Explorer is a definite favorite because it allows us to pinpoint a user and check their entire journey through our website including all the events triggered and the pages visited."
"As an SEO and digital marketing professional, the two features I have found the most valuable about Google Analytics are the Acquisition tracking and the Goal tracking."
"We found that the source and medium report is very useful when we are analyzing paid and organic campaign performance."
"Even though it's free, Google Analytics is packed with many of the same reports you'll find in high-priced solutions, especially concerning data relating to real-time visitor tracking."
"In my opinion, Google Analytics fulfills the role it plays in a good way."
"It allows us to understand where our traffic is coming from, where traffic is dropping off and how our AdWords campaigns are performing."
"The customizable reporting feature is important in general, and it helps with making data-driven decisions."
"Our organization has improved because we have solid data that we can use to analyze the impact of our public policies."
"Tealium Customer Data Hub has been able to provide advanced segmentation that has allowed us to effectively reduce our ad spend while simultaneously increasing the quality of leads that we are generating by targeting key user groups."
"The tool helps us see the audience's journey."
"The best thing about Tealium is that we can customize the tracking features."
"The product is super easy for anyone to learn."
"The feature I like the most in Tealium Customer Data Hub is AudienceStream CDP. It's the main product with many features, allowing us to build complex and straightforward use cases directly. Tealium Customer Data Hub is an easy tool to use. The client and server sides are user-friendly, especially the server side, including Tealium CDP, EventStream, and AudienceStream. Marketers without technical knowledge can quickly build use cases in audiences and connect them to vendor channels. No technical knowledge is required for these users. The platform offers easy integration and implementation. While technical aspects exist for building more complex use cases, a marketer can directly develop and implement use cases quicklyin the platform."
"Tealium Customer Data Hub has positively impacted my organization by significantly reducing the computational power and time spent on generating extracts compared to the legacy .NET script used previously."
"Tealium's ease of use and multiple out-of-the-box integrations set it apart from other tools."
"The vast amount of native connectors that Tealium has in its marketplace is valuable to us."
 

Cons

"One area that Analytics falls short is in creating a report archive."
"The sampling of data is definitely a pain point since we don't have an actual understanding of the data."
"An area where I would like to see improvement in Google Analytics is the auto-syncing of functions in Google Tag Manager into Goal tracking."
"Sometimes, the statistics are not updated in real-time and it takes a little time. There are pages where it updates faster than others."
"Not the right product if you need detailed click stream analysis or integration with your firm's customer segmentation."
"Some spam data is messing up the analytics report; Google should remove spam data."
"Additionally, Google Analytics can be hard to pick up when you're just starting to use it."
"If you do not use JavaScript, you will be invisible to Google Analytics. If you have the option of JavaScript disabled in your browsers, you will be invisible to the data, since the tool will not be able to register you."
"We did have a couple of incidences where the CDN was possibly not resolving."
"The solution's documentation could be vastly improved to make life easier for people using it on a regular basis."
"You can do anything you need with Tealium and reach your goals. You may face difficulty finding talents using this solution as it is new to market."
"In terms of the tool's real-time data capabilities, I think there are a few issues where improvements are required."
"Tealium lags is in the tag templates."
"It takes a long time to save and publish on the site, which can be very annoying in my experience with Tealium Customer Data Hub."
"It would be good if the tool had a console inside it to help meet complex requirements."
"Some areas need attention in terms of improvements for the Tealium Customer Data Hub. For example, audience sizing could be improved because it can only process up to one lakh users per day when trying to get a historical audience. Improvements are also needed in areas like dashboarding. Although they have introduced new features like Audience Insights, there's still room for enhancement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The installation cost is really low and does not require a team with a super performance to run."
"It's not as expensive as other tools."
"Tealium's pricing can be expensive compared to others, but it's worth the investment due to its extensive features and capabilities."
"The tool's price is somewhere in the middle, meaning it is not too expensive and not too cheap either. The pricing model comes with flexibility."
"The price is based on event volume."
"Tealium Customer Data Hub is an expensive solution, but it is not more expensive than Adobe."
"In Tealium, there is something called events, and the pricing is dependent on the event. You will be charged only if you have active data flowing it in and out."
