StatCounter the easy alternative to Google Analytics
Overall Satisfaction with StatCounter
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.

Pros
- Graphical (map) of users
- Easy to read charts
- Easy to set up vs. Google Analytics
Cons
- It actually does what I need, so I don't have a real answer here
- 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.
