I use Plausible or Fathom. What would I gain by switching to DataFast?
Switch only if you need revenue next to traffic. DataFast joins completed payments to each visitor's first source, so you see revenue per source and campaign, not only visitors. If a privacy-friendly traffic dashboard is all you need, a switch gains little. The comparison pages list differences; DataFast also has a Free plan to test with.
Steps
- Decide what question you need answered. Visitors and pages, or which channel produces paying customers.
- Try DataFast on the free plan. 5,000 events a month on 1 website, with 7 days of data.
- Connect payments. Pass the visitor ID through checkout and report payments.
Limits
- DataFast has fewer reports than general analytics suites.
- Compare current pricing and features on each vendor's own site.
FAQ
Where are the comparisons?
At /vs/plausible and /vs/fathom.
Do I have to remove my current tool?
No. The DataFast script is separate, so you can run both while you compare.
