What is Analytics Software?

Analytics software is any digital solution that helps analyze an organization’s diverse data sets to discover any useful information, patterns, trends, or correlations that aid with decision making. In other words, products in this category help turn raw data into actionable insights, helping businesses make more informed business decisions.

Different types of analytics software are available to suit different requirements. For instance, web analytics software enables you to track your web traffic sources. These products also help monitor the outcomes of PPC and email marketing campaigns. On the other hand, on-site engagement analytics allows you to know what your visitors do on your web pages. You can even find analytics tools specially designed for monitoring backlinks. These products send automated email notifications whenever new backlinks are created.

Other common types of analytics software include social media analytics, marketing analytics, customer analytics, etc. The right product helps an organization identify opportunities, streamline operations, improve marketing efficiency and gain an edge over the competition.
