The new Google Analytics G4 is sooo...shitty

So here we go again, how Google mess up things big time.
I am finding it super difficult to see my bounce rate in both the web view and mobile app. This is insane. The old universal analytics made things easy peasy. But this new one is just dumb, I can't even customize my dashboard well enough because they kind of shrink all the data together...I'm pissed off. Is it just me or does anyone else feel this way?

End of rant.

Mods please feel free to move this to the proper subforum if it doesn't fit here.

I absolutely hate it. The data is still there, but implementing goals/conversions and viewing certain metrics is a nightmare. I don't know why they would take something that's fine and mess it all up. And make it more difficult.

I tried to be subjective and open-minded, but this new version is a downgrade imo. Hopefully they'll see what people have to say and make changes overtime.

I'm sticking with the old version until they force the change. Another year I believe. Until then, the moment I find a fairly priced, good analytics tool I'm switching over.

That's pretty much the consensus.

Why did you shift yet a year for us to make the shift, and yea agreed it’s really bad

Yesterday I was in my analytics and these were my exact thoughts, don't like this update. Hopefully, it improves.

Well, now I already have a plan B. Switched to Yandex Metrica.
While I track Real-time metrics on G4, I am loving Yandex for the fact that it has a bunch of metrics I can drag and drop into my custom dashboard and see anything I want to see at a glance without shrinking multiple metrics into 3 tabs in a single box like G4 bs. Useful for a badass laser-targeted campaign.

Installed the Metrica on my mobile together with G4. I am wowed! by this metrica app, really.

Edit: as good as Metric is, the only caveat now is that sometimes it crashes on Android. I hope their developer fix the bug soon. I am wowed! Otherwise, I vote for it 100%

Sounds like a decent workaround mate.
