The short version

  • Only Cabin has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Cabin the analytics are deliberately shallow: no funnels, no cohort retention, no session replay and no user-level journeys, so anything beyond traffic and event counts requires a second tool.; Reportz the connector library is smaller than the established agency reporting tools, and if a platform you report on is missing there is no practical route to getting it added.
  • They diverge on capability: Cabin covers Cookieless tracking, Reportz covers Per-dashboard pricing.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Cabin

  • The analytics are deliberately shallow: no funnels, no cohort retention, no session replay and no user-level journeys, so anything beyond traffic and event counts requires a second tool.
  • Carbon figures are modelled from bytes transferred using CO2.js assumptions about grid intensity and device energy, not measured, so they are directionally useful and should never be presented as audited emissions data.
  • Cabin is a product of Normally, a design studio, rather than a company whose sole business is analytics, which puts a reasonable question mark over long-term roadmap investment and support depth.
  • The 30-day retention on the free tier and 12 months on Plus mean year-on-year comparison needs the $45 Scale plan, which is a large jump for a small site that only wanted longer history.
  • Because it does not use cookies or cross-site identifiers, returning-visitor and multi-session attribution are approximations, which matters if anyone in the business is trying to reconcile it with an ad platform's numbers.

Reportz

  • The connector library is smaller than the established agency reporting tools, and if a platform you report on is missing there is no practical route to getting it added.
  • Four Dots is a small agency-owned business rather than a funded software company, so API breakages and platform changes can take longer to fix than at larger vendors.
  • There is no data modelling, SQL or warehouse layer, so cross-source analysis is limited to what the widget set already supports.
  • Per-dashboard billing means an agency that builds several views per client loses the headline price advantage quickly.
  • Documentation and support are thin compared with larger competitors, and complex setups often need direct email support rather than self-service answers.
