Good web tracker or Google analytics service?

Dr. McKay · Mar 17, 2018

Which web tracker or analytics service do you use to track visitors on your websites?
I'm currently using Google Analytics but I am looking for alternatives.

On all my websites, I use Matomo (previsouly Piwik) to track my visitors. It can be installed easily on any web server (cPanel, Plesk or just with Apache/Nginx), it provide the same features than Google Analytics without impacting your website performance (async javascript loading).
It can be customized to track visitors even with an ad-blocker on their web browser and in Europe, you do not need to add a banner on your website to alert your visitors about cookies usage (it's always painful to integrate properly a banner with your website design).

A demo is available here : https://demo.matomo.org/

I personally like GA as compared to all other free and paid tools.

Google Analytics is still the clear winner in the web analytics space by far. Here’s what the web analytics market share looks like:

Other alternatives like Quantcast, StatCounter, Omniture, Piwik, Chartbeat, Clicky, and MixPanel pale in comparison.

Hope this helps !
