BetterGA

BetterGA is a web-based GA4 dashboard that helps users review core traffic metrics in one place. It supports read-only Google access, multiple properties, and email summaries for simpler analytics checking.

BetterGA

Overview

BetterGA is a Google Analytics front end that presents GA4 reporting in a simpler dashboard. It is designed to help users check core traffic metrics quickly, without moving through multiple reports or custom explorations.

The product connects to existing Google Analytics properties with Google sign-in, requests read-only access, and shows a combined view of users, sessions, top pages, sources, and countries. It also supports multiple accounts and properties, plus email digests for ongoing summaries.

Features

Single-screen analytics view

The dashboard surfaces users, sessions, top pages, top sources, and top countries together so you can answer common traffic questions without drilling into multiple GA4 reports.

Read-only Google Analytics access

BetterGA connects with Google sign-in and requests read-only access, so it can read report data without writing to your GA4 account.

GA4-focused experience

The product is built for GA4 and is positioned around the current Google Analytics API rather than Universal Analytics.

Multi-account property management

You can add multiple GA accounts and properties, then switch between them from one workspace instead of logging into each property separately.

Email summaries for properties

Weekly or monthly email digests summarize each property with metrics, top pages, and traffic sources for inbox review.

Quick setup workflow

The onboarding flow emphasizes a fast setup: sign in, select properties, and see all tracked properties in one dashboard.

Use cases

  • Quick daily traffic checks

    A solo site owner can check users, sessions, top pages, and traffic sources from one screen instead of assembling custom GA4 reports.

  • Managing multiple properties

    Agencies or consultants managing several client properties can import multiple GA4 accounts and switch between them in one workspace.

  • Inbox-based reporting

    Teams that want recurring updates can receive weekly or monthly email digests with key metrics and top content for each property.

  • Read-only analytics review

    People who only need read access to analytics can connect their Google account and view reports without granting write permissions.

  • Simpler GA4 navigation

    Users who find GA4 too fragmented can use BetterGA as a lighter interface for answering basic questions about site performance.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Simple dashboard that consolidates core GA4 metrics in one place.
  • Read-only access and no write permissions reduce risk to the source analytics data.
  • Supports multiple accounts and properties from a single workspace.
  • Email digests provide scheduled summaries without opening the dashboard.
  • Fast onboarding is emphasized, with setup described as taking about 30 seconds.

Cons

  • The source does not show pricing, and the pricing page currently returns a 404.
  • Team workspaces with member invitations are described as being on the roadmap, so team collaboration appears limited today.

FAQ

Is BetterGA free?

Yes. The site says BetterGA is free to use and that you can connect your Google account to start tracking in about 30 seconds, with no credit card required.

Does BetterGA work with Universal Analytics?

BetterGA is built exclusively for GA4. The source says older Universal Analytics is no longer supported.

Do I need an existing Google Analytics account?

BetterGA reads data from your existing GA4 properties through Google sign-in. If you do not already have a Google Analytics account, you need to set one up first.

Can I connect more than one property or account?

During onboarding, you can import properties from any GA4 account your Google account can access and manage them from one workspace.

What access does BetterGA request and how is data handled?

BetterGA requests read-only OAuth scopes, does not write to your GA4 data, and says analytics data is not stored permanently on its servers; it is cached for an hour.
