Analytics is the process of obtaining an optimal and realistic decision
based on existing data. (J Cutroni)

“There’s just me as web analyst and 60 users of Google Analytics. They don’t dedicate time
to using it. They’re too busy running campaigns..”
“I use it primarily for monthly or weekly reporting. Due to the amount of data and lack of time I don’t
have time to do more ”
Ecommerce manager, B2B
“It’s very frustrating. I’ve no time to go into any depth. I don’t know where to go to find information to show
which format is working and which one is not”
Brand manager, Pharma Industry
Web analyst, Financial Services
