51Degrees – Optimize by Device & Location

Description

Integrating 51Degrees Device Detection with your website will allow you to make informed decisions about what content a user engages with and how it is displayed. Combining the information learned from your analytics data with real-time enhanced device data on your website will empower you to produce a page built for that specific device’s needs. Taking this one step further, you have an additional 280+ device properties available to enhance your user’s user experience. The possibilities are endless as to what you can do with the information – it’s remarkably powerful.

This plugin makes use of the 51Degrees Pipeline API to deliver various data intelligence services. You can also add custom dimensions to your Google Analytics solution which will enhance your analytical data. With 51Degrees you can capture data that Google Analytics doesn’t readily collect, such as detailed information on specific device hardware.
