   Mixpanel helps track user behavior and measure success for your application

   I recommend Mixpanel to anyone who needs to do tracking of user behavior in web applications in order to measure against goals.

  A full-featured, mountable analytics dashboard for your Rails app, which is a blatant rip-off of heavily inspired by Plausible Analytics, powered by Ahoy. Open source, though lots of changing parts: https://github.com/joshmn/ahoy_captain. Source: 9 months ago

• Italian watchdog bans use of Google Analytics

  I've slowly started ripping Google Analytics out of my Rails projects and replacing it with https://github.com/ankane/ahoy. It's so much better! I can just use SQL to see what's going in and not get overwhelmed with 100's of visualizations and complicated dashboards. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• Cookie-based tracking is dead

  I did server-side tracking test in a rails app, where I implemented a tracking gem called ahoy and blazer for visualization. It is very easy to set up, but a bit hard to use. Blazer can do a very basic visualization of the data if you know your SQL queries. - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago

• Ask HN: What’s your startup’s analytics setup? (2023)

  Ten years ago, there was a popular Ask HN: "what's your startup’s analytics setup?” [0]. Like the poster then (malandrew), I have the same problem in 2023: Selecting analytics solutions for the startup I'm working at has proven to be more daunting than I imagined. There are many services to choose from and it's not immediately obvious how you should choose from the many offerings to get not only complete analytics... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
