I am using StatCounter in all of my 65 websites. The reason why I use it is that it gives easier to read insights and analytics of my sites compared to Google Analytics. You might be able to grasp more data with Google Analytics but you can not do it while driving or doing other stuff. You always need a computer to dig into stats with Google Analytics, meanwhile, with StatCounter, it's all more straight forward and even mobile friendly since they have a nice app! The visitor's path tab is very nice and it allows you to see real-time visitors and a lot of precious information you need to grow your websites.
  • Easy analytics
  • Real-time stats
  • "From where" it came keywords
  • The design overall looks a bit outdated even though they recently changed it.
  • The script that needs to be placed to track can be improved.
Statcounter is definitely a tool you need to have combined with GA. You should not use it if you think that you can get enough from Google Analytics but honestly I think that also adding StatCounter to your site will make you happy.
  • I can tell exactly where my websites are losing traffic.
  • I can tell where I need to improve my content.
  • I can figure out in real time the traffic and the nature of my visitors.
Statcounter excels with the simplicity and efficiency of the analytics. You can see exactly what's going on on your sites without the need to dig into complex google analytics data.

We use StatCount help us track visitors to our website. It also helps us monitor visitor activities. These helps us keep track of which products our customers are migrating to. It also lets us know what kind of impact our website is having upon the public. You can see how many visits you have and where these visits are coming from.
  • Easy to use and install
  • Can track custom activity in real time
  • Customized reporting for location and volume throughout the day
  • Not robust enough to do more advanced analytics like customer segmentation
  • Interface isn't as clean as other tools such as Google Analytics
  • Found it wasn't very accurate when traffic on the website got too high
The program is easy to use and to integrate. The integration is fast and is done in less than a minute. This quick refresh rate allows you to see what customers are viewing and how long they are viewing these pages. I would like to see added functionality to allow for more in-depth tracking. It does a great job of giving raw data, but an analysis of that data and data conversion to sales and customer retention would be great.
  • It's been great to track positive reactions to changes in our website and new product offerings
  • Also a great way to roughly estimate the demand and customer base for your products
  • Also identifies what areas of the website could be improved base on low traffic
Wish StatCounter had a more comprehensive report feature comparable to Google Analytics. I feel StatCounter is easier to use and to understand when compared to Google. Some people prefer Google Analytics, but it provides so much more information that the average person really needs. It meets basic needs. If you are looking for something more robust and high level of detail, I would recommend Google Analytics instead.

StatCounter provides me with a full in-depth look at the traffic coming to our website, from entry page or most popular, geographic locales along with users' path thru our website.

Browser, number of visits, time, computer type are all shown - that makes understanding the use of the website by our potential customers all that clearer.
  • Graphical (map) of users
  • Easy to read charts
  • Easy to set up vs. Google Analytics
  • It actually does what I need, so I don't have a real answer here
SInce I use it for a consulting business and not an e-commerce business, I am not able to say that StatCounter can or can't be used for the e-com business.

I can say for a general purpose website it is superb. Again, easy to set up, easy to read, and understand.
  • It is worth the money, since I use the free version.
Nothing compares with Google Analytics, but then again many people don't need or understand the complexity of Google Analytics (GA). If you set up GA incorrectly you can get information that is complete gibberish. StatCounter has a simple setup, so less chance of false information being misinterpreted.

Sometimes simplicity wins the day.
