Google Analytics Desktop Tool

Google analytics is one of the most used website statistic tools on the internet. It show quality and useful information about your visitors, the pages they visited, your referral URLs and much more. Now you can have all the stats and some more right on your desktop with a simple AIR tool.

While browsing the internet I found this useful tool: http://www.aboutnico.be/index.php/google-analytics-air-beta-sign-up/


If you are tired with the same analytics interface then this is the right tool for you. It has the option to monitor many websites and get accurate information right from google analytics about your website. The software is really easy to use and it is free, so why don;t you give it a try.The interface is smooth and clean (see image below)analytics report

The Google Analytics Reporting suite is an Adobe AIR application that brings Google Analytics to the desktop. It uses it’s own custom API to interact with Google and nearly implements all features of Analytics.


It is currently only in beta stage but the tests that I made so far did not reveal any problems.The export functions work really well, but there still is a feature that I would love to have it. Currently you can only export every stat in a separate file. There isn’t an option to add different widgets to the dashboard and export stats from all of them in one single file. I submitted a request for this function so there is a big chance we will have it in the next version.There are also a few more interesting things that I did not find in analytics interface. For you can view exactly the page that your referral send the visit from, not only the domain. Another feature that currently is not working in the beta is the ability to compare two dates, but this feature will be available in the next version.

Give this software a try and I am sure you will find it useful. And if you find any bugs, problems or if you want a new feature don’t hesitate to contact the author. I am sure that any help he can get will be appreciated.
