Google Analytics operates on a "sessions" model. Heap, in contrast, operates on a Users model, or a User-Centric model. We think this is a much better way to capture and organize user data, and far more useful for eComm and Product teams.
This paper explains why. (Hint: tracking users gives you way more information, and lets you answer way more questions.)
