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

"Tracking of the website visitors and web page analysis became an easy task."
"We found that the source and medium report is very useful when we are analyzing paid and organic campaign performance."
"I previously used WebTrends, but Google Analytics was more appealing because it was easy to setup, and it was available online for free."
"The customizable reporting feature is important in general, and it helps with making data-driven decisions."
"Provides us with useful data and analytics about website traffic, giving us information about how to make our web pages better."
"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."
"In my opinion, Google Analytics fulfills the role it plays in a good way."
"A solid choice for users who need simple, straightforward analytics, accessed through an easy to use interface."
"I really enjoy Tealium as a whole, including its tag management part and its CDP capability."
"Tealium's ease of use and multiple out-of-the-box integrations set it apart from other tools."
"It's a nice tool, and the data from Tealium is more appropriate compared to other tag management tools."
"The product's deployment phase is really easy."
"The tool helps us see the audience's journey."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"The product is super easy for anyone to learn."
"The tool offers a wide variety of extension stacks."
 

Cons

"Beginner users access the live help section a lot, because of how confusing it is, so it would not be bad if the function was located within the administration section."
"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."
"Not the right product if you need detailed click stream analysis or integration with your firm's customer segmentation."
"Google stripped out search rankings with “not provided.” It upsets many who want to understand how well they are doing in searches."
"Data capture of the acquisition of users, as on a few occasions, it was unclear where we got traffic from."
"There is a time lag of 4 hours for the tracking to get updated in the system."
"Additionally, Google Analytics can be hard to pick up when you're just starting to use it."
"Sometimes, the statistics are not updated in real-time and it takes a little time. There are pages where it updates faster than others."
"I believe Tealium Customer Data Hub could be improved by providing a collaborative environment that allows users to work in the same profile simultaneously."
"Tealium Customer Data Hub does not provide any reporting analytics."
"It would be good if the tool had a console inside it to help meet complex requirements."
"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."
"Sometimes, the extensions do not load properly before and after events."
"In terms of improvement, I wish failure handling could be easier, where stopping the currently running job in Tealium Customer Data Hub would also cancel the internally triggered SnapLogic pipeline."
"We did have a couple of incidences where the CDN was possibly not resolving."
"The solution’s user interface could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The installation cost is really low and does not require a team with a super performance to run."
"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."
"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."
"The price is based on event volume."
"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."
"Tealium Customer Data Hub is an expensive solution, but it is not more expensive than Adobe."
