Simple Analytics vs Clicky

Simple Analytics is also a privacy-first Google Analytics alternative tool. Their interface is the simplest and easy to use and understand. But this is at the cost or more advanced features that Plausible and Fathom have. 

Clicky has been around a long time and one look at the website and you can tell. It’s also now privacy first. The user interface is fairly unique compared to the other services but is still easy to use. Again the biggest turn off for some may be the look. I actually like it. Reminds me of the early web. But the tool still has lots of functionality built in.

• Super Simple Interface
• Privacy First
• Goals and Events Tracking

• Fast and Easy to Use
• Robust features and reports like heat mapping, uptime montoring
• Competitive pricing for the features you get

• Least amount of built-in reports of the Privacy First analytics tools
• Limited filtering
• May be too simple for some

• 90's / early 2000's User Interface
• Forums for support
• Not many updates or recent developments

I like Simple Analytics, but it is a bit to simple and for the cost there are better privacy-first alternatives. They do have a Free plan but it denotes fair use. Not sure what that means.

Clicky is just OK, I feel there are better alternatives in the price range.
