Google Analytics 4 is the latest version of Google Analytics, also known as GA4, and replaces the previous UA, or Universal Analytics version. GA4 uses machine learning technology to help analytics users understand customer behavior across multiple devices and platforms. It provides more granular data about user engagement and includes features such as event tracking, cross-device tracking, and funnel analysis.
With the GA4 migration underway, the time has come for all of us to embrace change, and don’t forget, you only have until July 1, 2023, before the switch to GA4 is permanent.
