Reviewer scorecard
“Behavioral cohorts and the query engine are powerful. Best for understanding complex user journeys.”
“Sub-1KB script, no cookies, GDPR-compliant. The ethical analytics choice that actually has a great UI.”
“PostHog offers similar features with open source and better pricing. Hard to justify Amplitude's enterprise pricing.”
“For most websites, Plausible provides all the analytics you need without the privacy guilt of Google Analytics.”
“The CDP + analytics + experimentation convergence is the right direction. Amplitude is well-positioned.”
“Privacy regulations are only getting stricter. Cookie-free analytics will be the default, not the alternative.”
