seems to work great.
I just mainly want to see who is visiting my site and what they're clicking and this plugin does that well.

Amazing team and product!
I reached out to their team with a privacy question and they were extremely polite and helpful. They answered all of my questions promptly and accurately. I wish more companies were this responsive and helpful regarding privacy!

What else do you need?
Amazing plugin that I've been using for many years now. Having dabbled with other analytics tools, it's always refreshing to come back to Koko Analytics and view the essential data. Nothing more, nothing less. Big fan and highly recommended, especially if you're looking for a more privacy-focused offering than something like GA4.

Just what you need for private analytics
Fantastic plugin that does exactly what it says. Privacy conscious and effective. The paid upgrade allows you to track custom events, which is perfect for clients who need more granular tracking and reporting.
