App + Web Analytics

Today’s customers expect to seamlessly interact with you across multiple channels and devices. Getting an accurate view of a user journey is difficult. Google has launched a unified tracking platform, called App + Web so that organisations can understand how users interact across websites, mobile apps and all your touchpoints easily.

Over the past decade, we have assisted numerous organisations with onboarding platforms and now, we’ve set our sights on Google’s new analytics product, App + Web. However, App + Web only starts collecting data once you set it up - that is, you cannot simply ‘convert’ your current Google Analytics property into an App + Web property.

Aside from all of the added benefits of upgrading your analytics to App + Web, if you want to have data for comparison, now is the time to start working on migrating our current Google Analytics implementation to App + Web.
