New features of Google Marketing Platform

Starting July 24, 2018, the DoubleClick and Google Analytics 360 Suite brands have been replaced with Google Marketing Platform. As a current user of these products, you immediately have access to Google Marketing Platform, including:

  • New product branding. Across the product interfaces, help centers, trainings, and other materials, you’ll see the new names and logos for all Google Marketing Platform products.
  • Platform Home. Platform Home will be a centralized place for user management, administrative control, account snapshots, and billing across the platform. For current Google Analytics 360 Suite users, this replaces Suite Home.
  • Integration Center. The Integration Center in Platform Home helps you get the most out of Google Marketing Platform by showing you what product integrations are available and the benefits they bring. You’ll see existing links between products and opportunities for new integrations.
  • A common product switcher. Seamlessly navigate across all of Google Marketing Platform from a common product switcher in the header of each product. You’ll see products you currently have access to in the switcher.

Changes to DoubleClick Digital Marketing products

Note that all existing integrations across products will remain the same - no action is required from you to maintain existing links. Billing for all DoubleClick advertiser products will continue as normal.
