Pros:
- It's good at dealing with older browsers
- It's async (non blocking)
- Simple to implement
- No dependencies
Cons:
- UI is simple but workflow is a little confusing at first
- Not "plug-and-play". Still requires a little working knowledge about Google Analytics.
...workflow is a little confusing at first - Not "plug-and-play".
Agreed. It took me some time to get used to it, but after that I've come to really like it and recommend it to many companies. (Occasionally I even do the setup as a short-term consulting job.)
Still requires a little working knowledge about Google Analytics.
Definitely. A tool is only helpful if you know the thing you're using it on.
