Google BigQuery / SQL & Data Studio
Using SQL is not as hard as it seems when you know English. Want to limit results? Use limit. Want to make a filter for results? User where column name = something.
Would like to use distinct value? You guessed it – it is distinct :)
With BigQuery you can process gigabytes of data. With Google Analytics 4, and big e-commerce site you will process such amounts.
Obviously it is not the queries itself which have a value. It is the decisions which you can make based on the data
Next step is to make it easy for each user to get the data by him/her self without asking data analyst where is it. For small/mid companies DataStudio + Google Sheets + Google Slides is enough. It helps a lot to show data in proper form.
