Funnel.io

  • Export destinations are rationed the same way, at 13 on Starter and 46 on Business
  • The entry plan starts at $300 a month billed annually and the next at $600
  • SSO, SAML, audit logging and an enterprise SLA are Enterprise only with no published price
  • Funnel Measure is an add on available only on Business and Enterprise

Plausible

  • There is no free tier, only a 30 day trial
  • Paid plans are metered on monthly pageviews, so a traffic spike moves you up a plan
  • Self-hosting is possible but means running and updating the service yourself
  • Deliberately simple, so there are no user-level profiles or funnel-by-individual reports the way a cookie-based analytics tool provides
