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

"I previously used WebTrends, but Google Analytics was more appealing because it was easy to setup, and it was available online for free."
"With Google Analytics, we obtain different metrics from all of the clients that enter our web environment."
"It's got incredible depth, yet it’s free."
"Our organization has improved because we have solid data that we can use to analyze the impact of our public policies."
"Since 2008, nearly every website I have worked on as an SEO and digital marketing professional has had Google Analytics deployed."
"We have increased our visits, views, and average stay on site time, which has led to an increase in revenues, and better targeting of our digital marketing campaigns."
"Provides us with useful data and analytics about website traffic, giving us information about how to make our web pages better."
"It allows us to understand where our traffic is coming from, where traffic is dropping off and how our AdWords campaigns are performing."
"Tealium differs from Google Tag Manager and Adobe Launch. It allows you to manage different environments easily. For example, you don't have distinct environments in Google Tag Manager. When you want to work on development sites, preview the changes before publishing them to a production website."
"The product is super easy for anyone to learn."
"We have seen clients benefit significantly from centralizing, storing, cleansing, and ultimately activating first, second, and third-party data within Tealium Customer Data Hub."
"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."
"The product's deployment phase is really easy."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"Tealium's ease of use and multiple out-of-the-box integrations set it apart from other tools."
"I really enjoy Tealium as a whole, including its tag management part and its CDP capability."
 

Cons

"While it provides a lot of data, the data is not always accurate. So data accuracy could definitely be improved."
"It would be nice if Google Analytics provided all statistics, rather than a segment of the statistics."
"The sampling of data is definitely a pain point since we don't have an actual understanding of the data."
"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."
"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."
"Data capture of the acquisition of users, as on a few occasions, it was unclear where we got traffic from."
"Google stripped out search rankings with “not provided.” It upsets many who want to understand how well they are doing in searches."
"The technical support from Google has room for improvement."
"I believe Tealium Customer Data Hub could be improved by providing a collaborative environment that allows users to work in the same profile simultaneously."
"The solution’s user interface could be improved."
"Tealium AudienceStream does not support concurrent development."
"The solution's documentation could be vastly improved to make life easier for people using it on a regular basis."
"Tealium Customer Data Hub does not provide any reporting analytics."
"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."
"In terms of the tool's real-time data capabilities, I think there are a few issues where improvements are required."
 

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."
"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."
"Tealium Customer Data Hub is an expensive solution, but it is not more expensive than Adobe."
"The price is based on event volume."
