Open source, privacy-focused alternative to Google Analytics
Completely free to self-host on your own database and server — there is no pricing ceiling regardless of traffic
The Postgres schema is simple and queryable directly with SQL if the UI doesn't show the metric you need
Simple enough to run on a $5 VPS with a small Postgres database — minimal resources required compared to self-hosting Plausible
Privacy-first and cookie-free by design so you never need to add a consent banner just for analytics
Cloud hosting service is limited and the self-hosted setup requires you to manage uptime and database backups yourself
Missing advanced features like funnel analysis, retention reports, and cohort tracking that PostHog or Plausible Cloud offer
Community support is limited and the documentation is sparse for advanced customization or event tracking configurations
