Clicky vs. Looker

Clicky is a viable alternative to Google Analytics for easy to understand reports for end users. Enterprise users may prefer a more sophisticated platform for measuring their website performance.

When you need to create a centralised dashboard for multiple stakeholders that blends cross-channel reporting. As an SEO agency reporting for clients - Looker is a great solution. It's less appropriate depending on the intended users. For instance, in my experience Looker reports have been under-utilised because they're not accessed regularly, provide too much noise or often simple PDF reports are preferred

• Clicky wins out because it's extremely user-friendly and even a novice can quickly understand how to configure it to get meaningful data.
• If you're managing multiple sites, the ease of copying your favorite dashboard views to another site is another big plus.
• And the bounce rate metric is different from any other I've seen - really great for tracking blog visitors who may look at a single article before going elsewhere.

• It is very easy to start a new dashboard and configure what you want to display by just selecting/dragging from the list of available columns.
• It is intuitive, mainly if you use other Google services like Google Sheets.
• The look and feel is modern and nice.
• It it very useful to have an immediate visual overview of the data in a spreadsheet.

• I wish I could get more granular in the Google ad data, such as down to the campaign type, instead of having to see only all campaigns.
• The setup can be time-consuming if you're not using the product regularly.
• Editing the dashboard requires a few logins; I wish it was more seamless.

In addition to the factors already mentioned, Clicky is constantly being updated to improve functionality for users and the development team is extremely responsive. Recent updates include enhanced support for HTML5 audio and video tracking, additional visitor detail and new comparison trends. In my opinion, Clicky just keeps getting better

We are very haooy with Looker, it provides us with all the funciomalities we need for both the day to day oerformance tracking and longer periods reporting. It is easy to use for account managers, configurable and customizable for soecialists and what is most imoortant, our clinets generally really love it

Looker is relatively easy to use, even as it is set up. The customers for the front-end only have issues with the initial setup for looker ml creations. Other "looks" are relatively easy to set up, depending on the ETL and the data which is coming into Looker on a regular basis.

Somehow resources heavy, both on server and client. I recommned at least 50Mbs data rate and high performance desktop comouter to be abke to run comolex tasks and configure larger amount of data. On the other hand, the client does not need to worry when viewing, the performance is usually ok

Know what they doing and reply quickly.

Never had to work with support for issues. Any questions we had, they would respond promptly and clearly. The one-time setup was easy, by reading documentation. If the feature is not supported, they will add a feature request. In this case, LDAP support was requested over OKTA. They are looking into it.

I have tried a wide range of analytics packages and I've continued to use Clicky because data visualization is clear and it's easy to generate and extract useful reports that I can integrate into wider reporting on website performance. As far as I know, Clicky provides some of the most up-to-date real time data, so that what you see is an accurate reflection of what's happening on your site. While I still use Google Analytics, Clicky is a valuable addition.

In my opinion, Looker is no Power BI. It is good, but I think Power BI is amazing. That said, in my experience, Power BI is nowhere near as easy to setup and report on Google services as Looker is. We plan to continue using Power BI for c-suite and corporate reporting, especially for internal databases, but will gladly use Looker for our marketing information for AdWords, Analytics, Search Console, and YouTube.

• The reports have helped us see what campaigns are working and where we need to tweak things.
• The reports have enabled us to have better conversations with stakeholders about how their web pages should be modified, edited, etc., to reflect the data.
