Alexa Internet (discontinued) vs. Keynote Systems (Discontinued)

I recommend Alexa for small businesses where you don't need much customization. Otherwise, I think big companies should implement their own tools.

It is totally suited for start ups that are developing an app. With Keynote they will be able to test it and to have some feedback about the bugs that it may have, even before they launch it. It will help you have a better product once it's launched.

If you want to focus only on your own web analytics, then Google Analytics is the way to go as no product will give you more accurate data. However, what Google Analytics cannot do is the competitive analysis functionality, which is where a product like Alexa comes in. It's about on par with SimilarWeb in many ways, they just go about the analytics in slightly different ways. Really, it comes down to personal preference as to which you prefer. Thankfully both offer free trials so you can test out the platforms before fully committing. SimilarWeb may be a bit better in terms of mobile web data.

We used Keynote Systems because it's easier to use it by yourself and you can prepare your own app and do the testing with the target you are addressing it to.
