 * The plugin after setup is fine, no complaints after setup.
 * The main issue that **prevents me from using this plugin now and in the future**
   is that you cannot edit settings until Google Analytics has been connected or
   you go through their setup wizard. This means that if you’re a website administrator
   and give limited Editor access to your users, you will not be able to allow those
   same Editors to log in and connect their own Google Analytics account.
 * As far as I can tell there’s _no reason_ to prevent updating settings until a
   Google Analytics account is connected, especially permission settings. Because
   this plugins makes it difficult to update settings I won’t be using it any time
   soon and **do not recommend it**.

 * Hi there,
    That’s an interesting usecase and one we didn’t anticipate. I wish
   you had reached out to us prior to writing a review for it, but in any case we’ll
   definitely update our plugin to allow that in the next major version
