I've been using this on the backside of Firebase Analytics (aka Google Analytics for Firebase) through the Firebase export to BigQuery. It's a powerful tool, but can be frustrating working with the schema that Firebase uses for BQ export. One thing that drives me nuts is that Data Studio does not alphabetically sort the fields in the attached BigQuery data set. I suppose they are listed in the order they appear in the schema, but wading through 30+ column names looking for the one you want is a pain when they're not sorted.
If you use BigQuery and Tableau, you can hook those together, so there's not a ton of incentive to use Data Studio, too, unless it fits a need for sharing with a team.
I can't speak to other Data Studio uses.
