When to choose Google Analytics

Google Analytics doesn't clearly lead cdnjs in any category on the sampled sites — pick it based on developer experience, ecosystem, or existing team skills rather than the audit scores.

Scores are medians across 411 audited cdnjs sites and 2070 audited Google Analytics sites in the BeaverCheck database. Every audit runs the same 100+ checks — Lighthouse performance, security headers, accessibility, SEO, server response time — against a real URL. No vendor input, no sponsorship, no affiliate links.
