Web Developer Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 12/3/2019 "Statcounter is simple and works well to gather web data" 4.5/5 What do you like best about StatCounter? Statcounter is easy to sign up for and doesn't require an expensive monthly subscription to use like competing services out there. We can add the data generating functionality to our website within minutes and can start seeing data flowing quickly. The data covers many different aspects of website visits. We can create reports and import the data into more advanced analytical applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about StatCounter? For the price, I think it's hard to beat what Statcounter has to offer. I suppose some of the emails we've received from them were annoying, but that can be adjusted in your account. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering StatCounter: There aren't many website analytical tools that can do what Statcounter can at its price point, but if you are looking for a more advanced solution that can be integrated smoothly with your e-commerce and marketing platforms, then Statcounter might not be the best fit available. It's best value I think is saving money and giving its users adequate metrics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is StatCounter solving and how is that benefiting you? Statcounter offers a fast way to obtain insightful website visitor data that can be used to understand what works and what doesn't with your website.

Marketing Manager Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 11/18/2019 "Statcounter was easy to install and gives me lots of actionable data" 4.5/5 What do you like best about StatCounter? The account dashboard has a nice and clean design that lets me access various data points with one click. The cost of using Statcounter can't be beat. We get lots of features that help us manage our analytics data and can create reports for easy export into other software like spreadsheet software. The tracking code responds very quickly to visitor traffic. We can get feedback quickly to help us hone our marketing campaigns and website designs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about StatCounter? Statcounter has been a reliable website data tool that comes without high pricing like many other solutions, so I can't really see what there would be to dislike. Sure, we can probably get more features using a different analytics solution, but we'd either have to pay more or deal with a more complicated system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering StatCounter: Statcounter is one of the simplest ways to get analytics data enabled on your website quickly. Though Google Analytics is also easy to use, I think Statcounter is more user friendly for people that aren't that comfortable with software that involves analytics data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is StatCounter solving and how is that benefiting you? Statcounter lets us plug into the activity that occurs on our websites and provides profile information about our website visitors. We get to know things like the visitor's location, operation system and web browser. We also get to know how long they stay on certain pages and what pages they leave our website from. It's all very insightful for understanding how well our web page designs and content are being received. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Marketing Strategist Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 11/13/2019 "Statcounter gives us extremely insightful website visitor data" 4.5/5 What do you like best about StatCounter? Before using Statcounter, I used to think that getting website analytics would be some complicated thing that only more advanced web programmers would be able to implement. Statcounter has given me the ability to quickly add analytical capabilities to our websites and landing pages without hours or days of work. I like that the data starts getting calculated quickly and we can use the data to optimize our website experiences for our visitors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about StatCounter? There could be some more advanced reporting in Statcounter that allows us to crunch the numbers in a way that are more meaningful for us from a marketing viewpoint. I think that if we could have more integration options with other software to get a more complete picture of the website performance, that could probably make Statcounter better for business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering StatCounter: I would consider Statcounter to be one of the better website analytics tools to use right away since it's so easy to get installed. If you have a WordPress website, all you need to do is just install it into the header file as opposed to each page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Account Manager Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 8/29/2019 "We get very good analytics on our website with Statcounter" 4.5/5 What do you like best about StatCounter? Installing Statcounter is one of the easiest things I've ever done involving website development. After signing up for our Statcounter account, which was very quick, we just had to copy a few lines of code from the Statcounter account and then paste it into the header file of our website. By pasting it into the header of our website, we were able to have the Statcounter code enabled for all of the pages generated by our content management system. The dashboard in Statcounter is laid out very well and allows us to look at all the data very quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about StatCounter? I think it can be hard to understand what some of the data means and how to use it in a meaningful way for particular sales and marketing purposes. I think that the reporting features can be better in terms of the formatting and making the data make more sense for other business development scenarios. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering StatCounter: I think Statcounter is one of the better website analytics tools that are available for all to use. You might also want to check out Google Analytics, which probably has more data and features. I think that Statcounter may be easier to manage though. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is StatCounter solving and how is that benefiting you? When we use Statcounter, we are able to get an overview of the visitor data for our websites. We can use the Statcounter account for many different websites that we use that are either for business-to-business or consumer-facing.

Lead Consultant Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 10/27/2019 "Statcounter gives us valuable feedback on the performance of our website" 5/5 What do you like best about StatCounter? Statcounter has many tools and data sets that give us a broad view perspective on visitor activity on our website pages. I have been in web design for over 10 years and Statcounter has been around for even longer than that, so I like that Statcounter has the longevity to exist and thrive in today's web world. The amount of data we regularly receive in Statcounter is great for such a low cost website analytics tool. It's very easy to install Statcounter and it can start working for us very quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about StatCounter? I think that the customization options in Statcounter are not as expensive as in some other analytics platforms including Google Analytics and some higher cost premium solutions I've read about. I think the layout and design could be more updated in the mobile version as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering StatCounter: When starting out with Statcounter, I wouldn't put too much weight on the initial data your receive within the first month. The valuable of the data becomes more meaningful as you compile a larger data set over time. I think at least a few months of data is require to use for substantive reporting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is StatCounter solving and how is that benefiting you? I'm able to learn much more about what's going on with visitor activity on our websites. We can tailor business and marketing campaigns, copy and website content based on the nature of our visitor reports. We can also export and format the data for general business insight and analytics reporting at meetings and for product development and event planning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Web Producer Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 8/9/2019 "The visitor data we get from StatCounter helps us to make better design decisions" 4/5 What do you like best about StatCounter? It's very easy to sign up for a StatCounter account and add the code to websites. With very little work and cost, we can get great data about visitor traffic that gives us better insight into the quality of our designs and impact of our marketing campaigns. The data can be exported into other data analysis tools that we have for even more detailed examination. I like that StatCounter has been an analytics solution that has been available for many years. It's actually one of the first analytics tools I've ever heard about. Being around for so long makes me feel better about it being a quality service that is trusted and effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about StatCounter? The data we get isn't always precise. We sometimes get page loads that are shown to occur in certain countries that we know they didn't load. I'll do a test load sometimes, but the triggered country is not the country I'm located in. Also, some of the more advanced features are difficult to work with. We usually have to stick with the basic user metrics since the advanced implementations of StatCounter can be faulty without the proper in-house programming specialists. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering StatCounter: StatCounter is a recommended analytics and metrics solution that can be easy to set up and manage. The account portal is relatively straightforward and not intimidating. I think that anyone can use if effectively on at least the basic levels. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We can also get an better understanding of the demographics that are engaging our websites and campaigns the most and disperse our future ad campaign funds in a more meaningful manner.

The amount of tools that are available in Statcounter were more than I expected. We can track activity and gain insight into most common activities involved with loading websites. We can get information about web browsers used, visitor locations and pages visited. I also like that we can see how long people are on a page. Connecting the Statcounter code to our websites is as easy as it gets. We just do the typical code snippet insertion and everything is just about ready to go. About the company, I like that Statcounter has been in existence for many years and is trusted by many companies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about StatCounter?
