This is the issue I've found with every open source product. I'm perfectly happy to pay for an analytics product, so the best I've been able to find is adobe Omniture. Unfortunately that's a 30 - 100k price tag. There is definitely a market for a powerful analytics platform at a reasonable price.
Since it sounds like you've tried a good number of options, what do you think about Mixpanel? We used it at the startup I used to work at and I mostly enjoyed it although we didn't go to deep.
For people looking for similar options, there's also Matomo[1] (previously Piwik) that you can self-host for free. [1] https://matomo.org/
unfortunately, matomo is harder than necessary to automatically deploy to containerized environments like heroku because they don't support the 12 factor principles [1]. a cynic might assume that this is because it would undermine their own hosted solution.

I think I tried this a month or so ago. It looked great, except for the one fatal flaw that stopped me from actually deploying it: It doesn't support multiple sites per installation, and I don't want to have to deploy one server per site.
Disclaimer - it's neither self hosted nor free (nor very expensive), and I was previously a part of the team that built it. I can honestly say no data is being sold to 3rd parties, as should be expected from a paid service.
> web services do crappy things with that data. (Hey Zuck, how was Congress?) Is this kind of snark really necessary in top marketing copy? I get what you are saying in terms of freemiums ins and outs, but I don't know if it should be my first impression to your company's message. To each their own, just feels a bit cheap IMHO.
author of that line here: i don't want to live in a world where companies can't have a little fun with some copy.

It's admittedly confusing, but I think I'm still right and that you may be conflating policies about other google services. From your second link, which is specific to Analytics, it says: > What is the data used for? > Google uses Google Analytics data to provide the Google Analytics measurement service to customers. Identifiers such as cookies and app instance IDs are used to measure user interactions with a custome…
I'm pretty sure GA data doesn't intermingle with AdWords targeting profiles in a default configuration. If that was true, then Google wouldn't consider it a violation of its ToS for HIPAA-covered entities to use its analytics product. "If you are (or become) a Covered Entity or Business Associate under HIPAA, you may not use Google Analytics for any purpose or in any manner involving Protected Health Information unle…
As for the quotes terms, the same are there for any personal information (in my EU-based account at least) and you grossly misread it: it says you cannot send Google protected classes of information, not that you cannot use GA at all.
The reason is obvious: Google does not want to have any legal obligations from running GA. Same with forbidding storage of personal information.

Or use the original self-hosted-at-scale open source solution, Snowplow ( https://snowplowanalytics.com/ ). These guys have been solving self-hosted digital analytics for years now, and have consistently proven to be one of the best options for real-time digital data tracking, triggering, and analytics. Their qa/schema focus is especially nice in teams where multiple people are contributing data but you want to make…

Would like to know how to deploy for production.
