The Google app covers basic Google tracking only. No server-side, no GTM connection, no expert support, no diagnosis. If Google is your only platform and basic accuracy is acceptable, it may work. For anything beyond that, Webgarh GTM Assistant fills the gap.
Stape provides server-side hosting infrastructure, but you still need technical expertise to configure GTM containers, tags, and triggers. Webgarh GTM Assistant removes that complexity and includes a team that does the work for you.
Hiring an agency means a paid setup project and ongoing maintenance. Webgarh GTM Assistant does the same job: our team sets it up free, then supports you on request. We reply within one working day (Monday to Friday). If a connection breaks, for example an expired token, the app alerts you straight away.
