best woo plugin
I run a small fine art print studio on WooCommerce and moved to Independent Analytics after my previous stats plugin kept missing visits. That one counted in PHP, so every page served from cache was simply invisible — I had a real visitor sitting in one tool and missing from the other. IA counts in the browser,…

A perfect plugin and a must for any WordPress site
Highly recommend the plugin and simply a must I would be happy if they upgraded it and it also supported the Hebrew language

Solid across the board
Tracking our ecommerce sales, form submissions, and user behaviour on multiple sites with Independent Analytics. It has proven to be the best replacement for google analytics for us.

Out-STAND-ing 😎
Independent Analytics keeps all my analytical data local to my web site so I don’t have to use the far more flaky SaaS alternatives, which get blocked by browsers and have generally bad reputations. This way, ALL my traffic gets tracked. Well done!

One of the best out there

All of the Features. None of the Bloat.
I’ve been on a mission to replace the bloated analytics plugin I was paying way too much for. I’m so glad I found Independent Analytics. It has all of the features that I need and more. Easy to install. Easy to use. Has absolutely everything I need.

Ben Sibley provides excellent cst svc.
I cannot speak to things Independent Analytics does, because geekspeak coming out of my mouth (or fingers typing) is literally gibberish. So, I won’t try. When I have issues (if I do which is seldom) I message Ben and get a timely response. This is of paramount importance in my book. I’m old school in my expectations,…

So far exactly what I was looking for
Straightforward to use, no need to worry about privacy issues, I like that there’s a white label option by default, that’s fab and a time-saver i(ts also easy to add some CSS to customise the view further, unlike with Burst Statistics for instance). Time will tell but as long as performance isn’t impacted too much,…

Analytics Freedom
Finally a company who gets that we just want to see analytics simple and easy for everyone. Plus without all the weirdness around unnecessary data tracking. Thank you Independent Analytics for doing the right thing with analytics!

Exceptional Plugin and Support
I only have good things to say about Ben Sibley and Independent Analytics. Thank you for such a great plugin.

Very accurate and the pro offers some excellent features
I’ve tried many visitor analytics plugins, some free, some paid, but they either didn’t count the visits correctly, or slowed my website way down. I’ve been using the pro version of IA for only about a month and there is much more to learn but so far, it’s very good. It has quite an accurate accounting of visitors and…

Recommended to a Client… Couldn’t be Happier!
I recently recommended this plug-in to a client as an alternative to my company setting them up with the full Google Analytics – which honestly, Google analytics is always so overwhelming for clients they never use it. Your Independent Analytics plug-in is exactly what they needed and they even purchased the Pro…

Good free features, needs better performance
So far, pretty good analytics and data, but I feel like the performance(server) impact is a little much. If that gets changed, so will my review to 5 stars

Great plugin with excellent support!
Plugin has everything we want to track, with a well-designed UI and customizable dashboard. Easy to set up, good documentation, and quick, helpful support when needed. BIG upgrade from other analytics options!

Makes such a difference to data analysis.
Very clear and informative – useful data at your fingertips. Love it. And lots of regular soundbites from the Founder to help you learn more as you go. Thank you, Ben!

Beats the pants off the competition
I’ve been through a few analytics tools over the years, so when I stumbled across Independent Analytics and discovered how easy it was to set up (there’s almost nothing to do) and the level and usefulness of the stats it provided, I switched to the Pro version, not just because it gave even more flexibility but…

excelente complemento
escritorio muy ordenado y fácil de entender

So far, so great.
Update, amending my rating as every time I update the Pro plugin (on all of my websites) I get an “Update failed” error. This needs to be fixed. I haven’t even used it all yet, but loving it so far! Easy to setup, love the email tutorials. Even though I think they should slow it down a bit, I think they are very…

Simply perfection
I’ve been using this amazing plugin on my site, for over two weeks. In the past, I relied on StatCounter to view my site analytics. However, this plugin was recommended to me, and I gave it a try. It’s dead easy to set up, even for an airhead, like me. I love the interface, and the dashboard. Ben has made a beautiful…

A great analytics plugin, even for clients.
I’m just now getting used to the plugin, but I’ve been using it on a few sites so far, and the insights are amazing. The ability to track clicks and referrals, and to see detailed stats in the dashboard with emailed reports, is amazing. It’s a nice alternative to GA4 and something you can hand off to clients without…

Very Easy to use
We have been moving all of the sites we own and also manage for others. We find that everyone likes the data to stay in-house, and that it is a simple interface to use and understand. Since migrating off of (you know who) we have reduced the support and explanations needed by our own staff and our clients. Bravo

Just works :-)
This is exactly what we looking for.

Simple and useful :)
Does what it’s supposed to do. No consent required (no annoying pop-up banners), full analytics, and user journeys coming soon. Highly recommend! The installation was very straightforward, and the UI is intuitive!

Using for my clients websites
Why use Google Analytics or other, when you don’t need to create audiences/remarketing, ads,…? Its friendly, and you don’t need the annoying and useless GDPA Cookie Banner if you keep it simple.

Does what it says on the box
Independent Analytics is a great plugin. It will generate all the reports you require without cookies leaving footprints all over your website. Easy and simple to use, and It’s free. What more could you want. If you have an e-commerce site there is a paid-for version which unlocks a lot more reports (which I don’t…

Superb!
Not only does Independent Analytics solve the privacy concerns related to using Google’s tool, but it’s also just a ton easier to set up and use to get meaningful data. Love it! I am so happy I found a solution that enabled me to finally ditch Google Analytics.

Simple and useful
This is the first plugin I regularly use to get insights about my page’s performance and I love it.
