I would most likely renew Chartbeat. For a lifestyle media site, it helps tremendously with the day to day judgement on what content to publish on our social media platforms.

I am no longer employed by the company I used Chartbeat at and my current job is not a subscriber. But, if I were still at my prior job, I'd continue using this to maximize our web audience and research their habits.

Likelihood to Renew

I gave Chartbeat a 5 for a renewal rating, because, while it delivers clear and understandable content, Google Analytics also provides many of the same features for free. For a small to medium website, I believe it would be more cost effective to use Google Analytics. A website with a high amount of traffic, however, could merit spending the money on Chartbeat to maximize their potential.
