While you can continue to use Google Analytics with IE9 after this date, Google warned that “some features may not work properly going forward.” In other words, if you haven’t upgraded yet, just pull the trigger.
In September 2013, Google first announced that it plans to discontinue support for the third-oldest version of browsers in Google Analytics. IE8 support was then killed off in December of the same year.
This means the January 31 date only affects IE. Google says it will continue to support Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and “other modern browsers,” but since their version numbers change more frequently, and they don’t have as high of a market share, they don’t get their own deadline announcement.
If you’re still using an old version of any browser, you can expect problems when using Google Analytics. Well, that goes for the web in general, but Google Analytics can be particularly heavy on certain functions.
