First Slide of

Quicker insights, smarter decisions : (e.g. Analytics Intelligence) Customization to meet your company's unique reporting needs (e.g. custom variables) More powerful analysis and increased productivity: (e.g. Advanced Analysis Features, Unique Visitor metric, Expanded Goals & Engagement Goals)

Short amount of time – brief introduction to make you aware of what is available with these new features. Wealth of information available online. Won’t be delving into any technical concepts Q & A – if we don’t cover all your questions today, we will answer them offline and place the responses on our blog

AI: ask Dai about messaging on this

Discover how these new features provide you more power to measure, manipulate and analyse your data.

Previously: only 4 goals per profile. If you wanted to track more goals, you would have to create a duplicate profile and then define a new set of goals Now: 20 goals per profile. Grouped into 4 goal sets, with 5 goals per set Each set will appear in your reports as a tab per goal set

Two new goal types allow you to measure user engagement on your site. The new goal types allow you to set thresholds for Time on Site and Pages per Visit.

Recommend grouping URL goals and engagement goals in separate goal sets Watch out for increases in site-wide conversion rates

will create a separate Analytics profile that will be dedicated to mobile reporting from those sources Currently, mobile sites with GA code will only track high-end devices that support JS and cookies

Also a preview of the new snippet generator in GA

This feature allows you to filter the rows in any Google Analytics table based on different metric conditions

Organizations require flexible analytics tools that can meet their unique reporting needs. With the following features, Google Analytics adds powerful customization capabilities to meet those demands.

Multiple Custom Variables provide you the power and flexibility to customize Google Analytics and collect the unique site data most important to your business at the page, session, and visitor levels. You can set multiple variables for one visit, and overwrite a variable's value in certain cases. Truly segment your audience to YOUR needs

Multiple Custom Variables provide you the power and flexibility to customize Google Analytics and collect the unique site data most important to your business at the page, session, and visitor levels. You can set multiple variables for one visit, and overwrite a variable's value in certain cases. Truly segment your audience to YOUR needs

Can’t set more than 5 CVs per page simultaneously. there virtually is an unlimited number of CVs, it's only that 5 can bet set simultaneously. One can define as many as one needs at the session and visitor level.  At the page hit level, one can have 5 page-level "names".  Each of these names can have basically unlimited values.

Previously created segments and custom reports would only be visible in the account that created it If co-worker wanted to recreate it, you had to instruct them on how to re-create step-by-step Now, just share a link When co-worker opens link in account, see a pre-filled advanced segment.  All they have to do now is customise it to their needs, and hit save.

Wouldn’t it be great if Google Analytics could tell you what to pay attention to? Now it can. Spend your time taking actions on your data, not finding actions to take.

Analytics Intelligence will provide automatic alerts of significant changes, great or small, in the data patterns of your site metrics and dimensions -- Currently: Automated detection on 11 dimensions & 18 metrics These reports allow users to check in on the health of their business without cumbersome analysis for high level changes and focus on actionable data insights. Enable users to respond quickly to adverse changes in visitor behavior or capitalize on surge of quality traffic.

The top graph (similar to other reports) shows the traffic based on the selected time period. Alerts will be shown underneath the graph. Automatic alerts will appear in green. Custom alerts will appear in blue. To view the alerts, click on the desired bar. The information will populate underneath. No correlation between multiple alerts.  Up to you and your analysts to determine if this is a significant event.

Monthly alerts look 12 months back

You can set daily, weekly, and monthly triggers on different dimensions & metrics, and be notified by email or right in the user interface when the changes actually occur.

Custom alerts will be calculated from when the alert is created onwards. Currently only available to the user that created the alert.
