Data studio Templates : dashboard templates for viewing Google Analytics data
If you’re looking at visualising your marketing data Google Data Studio offers most your basic needs for dashboarding out of the box. It is also very easy to get started (even for beginners).

This selection focuses mainly on paid media, SEO and multi-touch attribution and is updated as of July 2020.

Data Studio templates: A powerful tool for data connectors
A powerful alternative to premium dashboard options like Tableau is Google Data Studio. Data Studio offers all the tools you need to create marketing dashboards: easy-to-use interface, solid design options, and a wealth of Google ecosystem data connectors (Google Analytics, Adwords, Sheets, Big Query). And, you can connect to must-have data sources like Facebook Ads with the help of third parties such as Super Metrics.
As great as Data Studio is, the mobile-friendly design fails in one key respect: Visualizations you create will not scale down to mobile screens for desktop viewing.
But there is a workaround to the mobile limitations of Data Studio, provided you’re willing to do some work.
Data Studio templates – Organizing the Information
Our mission today is to organize the information of the world and make it universally accessible and useful is even more relevant and far-reaching. And the launch last year of both frees and enterprise versions of the new dash board and reporting tool, Data Studio templates are a testament to our commitment to this vision. We have received positive feedback over the past 9 months and have seen a huge demand for the product. And we’ve continued to improve the product, making it even easier to use through templates and adding a lot of new data connectors.
We are making an important change to allow more businesses to get full value from Data Studio — we are removing the reporting limit in Data Studio. Now you are creating and sharing as many reports as you need-all for free.
Combined with a very exciting road map for 2021, this change is designed to speed up our the goal of helping you fully leverage all your data across your organization and ultimately make better decisions.
