Google announced the sunsetting of Universal Analytics (GA3). 

Why it matters

The replacement to Universal Analytics is not an upgrade, this means that data that you are relying on to measure your business success will no longer be available after July 1, 2023.  In order to compare data from that point on.  GA4 will need to collect data.  So it is important to start collecting data now from that platform if you haven't already. 

Not sure if GA4 is set up and collecting data for you?

    It all depends on the complexity of your existing setup. Google does offer a migration tool to assist in the process however, it will take a substantial amount of time for this to be done properly. Ranging from a few weeks to a couple months. We strongly recommend installing GA4 as soon as possible.
