Visitor Analytics as alternative to Piwik
About Piwik
Matomo, formerly known as Piwik, is a popular website analytics platform.
It has a free on-premise version that provides very basic statistics, on top of which you can add extra features such as funnels, heatmaps, advertising conversion reports, session recordings, and many others, in exchange for a fee. If you want to add all the available features you will actually end up paying a few thousand euros per month.
Summary
Compared to Piwik, Visitor Analytics is more transparent when it comes to pricing plans. All the features are included in all of the subscriptions and you pay as your website grows. Either way, no matter the amount of traffic, with Visitor Analytics you will end up paying less than with Piwik.
Also, the Visitor Analytics free version is actually free; there are no hidden fees.
