Here is a list of ten benefits for using Google Data Studio in your day to day operations as a digital marketing agency :

1. Access unlimited widget

Google Data Studio lets you include any number of widgets to share and explain your data with ease. If you need score-card, bar chart or table, the app provides you some of the best visualization tools in the market. It's perfect for anyone who needs more than just a few charts or graphs because it also allows users to create custom reports and view data as they want.

One of the best features of Google Data Studio is that you can pull data from a lot of different sources (as Facebook Ads, Google Ads, etc.) and then consolidate it in your reports. You just need to go to the Google Data Studio gallery then use the connector you want. 

This gives you access to all kinds of information you need for analyzing yours projects and campaigns ! And build cross-platform report.
