Biggest opportunity: Swap “google analytics”, “analytics” and “google analytics dashboard” for “google analytics 4”, “campaign tracking” and “call tracking”. “google analytics” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #22. “google analytics 4” sits at #6 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “analytics” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #21. “campaign tracking” sits at #11 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “google analytics dashboard” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #19. “call tracking” sits at #15 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

Install conversion
How it's measured →0.8%
of downloads still active
At least 20K of 2.6M lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Analytics plugin keeps 1.2%, across 1,007 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Analytics plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 16 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

I often reach out to support for help with issues and they are always responsive and keep me up to date on status of updates that may take a bit longer. Every time they’re ready to push an update, I get notified and asked if I would like to try out the beta first. Working with them the last 2 years has been worth it for me and my clients.

We’ve used MonsterInsights for years, switched to Analytify and couldn’t be happier. Great metrics that are thoughtfully laid out. Highly recommend the paid version.

I really like this plugin and use it daily on several sites. It would be perfect if there were easy access to week-over-week, month-over-month, and year-over-year comparisons.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ Dave Lozier1.2y ago
After using a number of other analytics plugins we decided to give Analitify a try. Other plugins were either to bloated, to costly or just seemed to impact page performance. Support has been wonderful as well. They actually follow up on reported issues. We’re using the pro version since we needed WooCommerce event tracking. Compared to other analytics plugin “pro” versions the cost just couldn’t be beat for the features offered.

We use this plugin on all our client websites and they LOVE being able to see their analytics from within their WP dashboard. Even more so, it helps us provide a great service via the monthly analytics reports we have it send our clients. Thanks guys! Great plugin!

Good plugin, simple and do the job.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ Mavent1.3y ago
There is no conceivable use for this. Most features are locked behind paywalls, and the ones that aren’t simply don’t work. Use Monster Insight if you’re willing to go with a paid solution. At least it works.

Up pops a admin notice, asking me for a five star review. Never show again, I click. Doesn’t matter, admin notice is still there, all the time.
