Limitations and Shortcomings of Google Analytics, Nov. 2016

Google Analytics (GA) has two tiers:

  • Standard (Freemium), free of charge
  • 360 Suite (Premium), flat annual fee $150,000

Both have limitations, which I'd categorize under Data Quality and Technology:

  • Data Quality
  • Data Sampling

GA uses sampling in generating many of its reports. This sacrifies accuracy in favor of query performance.

Branch mispredict ............................ 5 ns
L2 cache reference ........................... 7 ns
Mutex lock/unlock ........................... 25 ns
Main memory reference ...................... 100 ns             
Compress 1K bytes with Zippy ............. 3,000 ns  =   3 µs
Send 2K bytes over 1 Gbps network ....... 20,000 ns  =  20 µs
SSD random read ........................ 150,000 ns  = 150 µs
