Data Reconciliation
If you’ve been using Google Analytics and are moving to SiteCatalyst, or vice versa, the first thing
you and your stakeholders are going to notice is the huge difference in your standard metrics,
like page views and visits. While it’s a given that all tools “count” differently, it's also true that
we can see and explain these differences. This helps create a baseline difference that can be
explained to your management and Web analytics consumers.
In these engagements, Semphonic reviews data sets from each of the tools and runs tests to
determine the constant difference in counts. We then review how each tool is implemented to
validate that complete data collection is occurring.
The deliverable is a document explaining the anomalies that we’ve found as well as a
recommended weighting factor which can be used to understand the counting and trending
differences between the two solutions.
