Google announces new version of Google Analytics
As Web Analytics consultant I’m often asked why one would use WebTrends, WebSideStory or any other paid Web Analytics software or product instead of Google Analytics. Part of the disadvantages of Google Analytics have been blown away by Google.
The new Google Analytics now features the ability to Schedue Reports and send them as PDF, XML, CSV or TSV file to your email address. Also there is an new feature that allows you to create custom dashboards with drag & drop functionality.
A lot other new features and visual changes have been implemented. I’m sure I will post about those lateron!

Google Analytics users will be notified by email when their interface has been upgraded by Google. This message will appear in your account:
We’re excited to announce the newly redesigned Google Analytics.
Over the next several weeks, we will be migrating all existing Analytics accounts to the new Google Analytics interface. You will be notified by email once your account has been migrated. For an entire month you will be able to access both the original interface and the new interface. During the migration, you should experience no interruption in service and you’ll be able to see all of your data regardless of which interface you use. For a sneak peek at the new Google Analytics, take a look at the following resources.
