Microsoft Ads: Reporting & Analytics Integration

Microsoft Ads keeps its data to itself by default. Budget decisions need it next to everything else.

Numbers That Line Up

You check Microsoft Ads in one tab, Google Ads in another and your CRM in a third, and the numbers never agree. Without a shared view, you can’t tell which platform deserves more budget.

We connect Microsoft Ads to GA4, Looker Studio and your CRM. The figures then line up, and you can make decisions across platforms from one report.

Building One Paid Media View

1

Fix the Tags

We set up or repair GA4 and UET so conversions and audiences are recorded correctly.

2

Import Offline Conversions

Using click IDs, we build the data pipeline from your CRM or call tracking back to Microsoft Ads.

Build the Dashboard

Looker Studio dashboards put your metrics on the same basis, so Microsoft and Google compare fairly side by side.

Review Search Terms

We add the search term report, filtered by spend and conversions, so wasted budget is easy to spot.

Why Choose System Strats

We run Microsoft Ads alongside Google Ads for clients every day, so comparing the two platforms is part of our normal work.
