It provides brilliant insights about organic search results, and helps you to manage page indexing (seeing which pages have been indexing, fixing issues for pages that aren't able to be indexed, etc.) > > **Cons**: I wish that you could see data beyond two years ago; I'm not sure why you can't see this data; because you can in Google Analytics, for example. ----- ### "Google search console is a mandatory tool needed for your search visibility." — 5.0/5 > **Eric** | *26 June 2026* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: It’s has the most in depth details about your websites visibility in Google searches. It’s a must have for any brand. > > **Cons**: Sometime I find some bugs in connected third party tools and integrating them into the search console. > > GSC is great to get real data for you to figure out how to advance your search visibility. You can also see what needs to be adjusted. ----- ### "Good product to track SERP positions" — 4.0/5 > **Kevin** | *19 November 2025* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: This is a great tool to measure what is happening in the Search results of Google without having to look manually for every keywords we target. > > **Cons**: Data is not always accurate; we can see different results between GSC and actual Google search results. Tips are limited. > > This is definitely helping us monitor our SEO positions, and it gives a good report that is actionable. ----- ### "Looks nice, but is really an advertisement for lead generation software" — 3.0/5 > **Andrew** | *9 March 2026* | Furniture | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: When it works, it greatly improves the chances of your company getting noticed. The security that Google provides is still top-notch. They also give some actual insight to Google's SEO while in the console. > > **Cons**: This product still remains cryptic. You still can't tell what how any changes are actually affect your SEO. The features are designed to point you towards purchase leads at a confusingly high cost. > > The design of Google's Search console is good, but leaves much to be desired. From a project management standpoint, I would hire SEO services out to someone who has a host of other tools that integrate with the console. ----- ### "Google search console will allow you to get the most from your business" — 5.0/5 > **Ben** | *12 July 2026* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Google Search Console will allow you to easily amend your business details on Google and ensure you are getting the most out of your business and SEO. > > **Cons**: While Google Search Console will allow you to do a lot for your business on Google, it is not always clear at first, but once you know what you are doing, it gets much easier. > > I have used Google Search Console to edit the details of the business on Google to ensure that they are correct, and I am getting the most from the SEO of my business. It is very important to do this, and without Google Search Console, you will be a lot more limited. ----- Page: 1 / 10\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.com.au/software/210297/google-search-console?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.com.au/software/210297/google-search-console) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | ----- ## Structured Data
