When to choose Google Analytics

Choose Google Analytics when your primary concern is server response time and performance. Its audit data shows consistent strength in these areas across the sampled sites.

When to choose Twitter Ads

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