Q: What's stopping Google from providing the key features in your software directly that would make you application redundant?
Do you have any legal protection or work with Google closely to avoid these potential future issues?

May 14, 2024A: Hello,
Google is fantastic at building big things, but it's always slow and lack of extra functionality. Google most likely never will integrate 3rd parties like Zapier or Slack, for the legal issues. You won't probably see Reports branding or message translation features. Finally, we have some plans expanding to other data sources, which would never happen on Google too.
So we don't think that StatsGlitch will become redundant anytime soon, but any other competitor is unavoidable, and that's the reality. However, we believe that adjusting the product to the users' problems is the right path. Sometimes smaller, but essential features for your business, which would large corporations never implement.

That's awesome to hear that you will bring in data from other platforms. Hope you are talking about alerts for other major platforms like facebook, linkedIn, instagram or twitter, etc?
What kind of eta can we expect for the next platform?
I'm assuming Sumoling customers will get the future platforms too?
Hello,
Right now, we're in the process of polishing Google Analytics integration, so it's way too early to promise ETAs. Although we're thinking about expanding data sources, we're not sure yet how exactly (some are possible via GA source/medium, others via direct implementation), and which ones first. I don't want to promise on things we aren't 100% sure yet, but of course, if it will go under the "Agency" plan, all Sumo-lings will get it for free.
