Compare
MetriXs vs the rest.
Pick a tool to see a focused, side-by-side comparison, pricing, privacy, features, and where MetriXs comes out ahead. Every competitor here is a privacy-first analytics tool (except Google Analytics), so the differences come down to pricing model, feature scope, and whether you want to self-host.
Plausible
The popular open-source choice.
Same privacy posture, EU hosting, and cookieless tracking, but MetriXs is priced by sites + members, not pageview tier, so a traffic spike never inflates your bill (events beyond the allowance are silently dropped, not billed extra).
- ✓ Flat pricing vs pageview-tiered
- ✓ Team members included in-plan
- ✓ Starts free, paid from €6/mo vs $9/mo
Simple Analytics
Minimal and EU-hosted.
Both keep analytics calm and EU-only, and both have a free plan. MetriXs keeps a 1-month retention free tier and its paid plans start lower at €6/mo.
- ✓ Free plan with no badge required
- ✓ Paid from €6/mo
Google Analytics
The default, and the liability.
GA is free but cookies your visitors, hosts data in the US, and needs a cookie banner plus legal review. MetriXs is cookieless, EU-hosted, and needs no consent banner, free to start, paid from €6/mo.
- ✓ No cookies, no consent banner
- ✓ EU-hosted, GDPR by design
- ✓ One-screen dashboard vs 100+ reports
Umami
Open-source and self-hostable.
Umami is open source and you can self-host it free. MetriXs is a managed cloud product with flat per-site pricing and a free tier, so you skip the infrastructure and maintenance of running your own analytics server.
- ✓ Managed cloud vs self-hosting
- ✓ Flat pricing, free tier
- ✓ No infrastructure to run
Fathom
Polished and pageview-tiered.
Both are cookieless and privacy-first. Fathom starts at $15/mo for 100k pageviews with no free tier; MetriXs starts free and paid plans begin at €6/mo, priced per site rather than per pageview.
- ✓ Free plan vs 7-day trial only
- ✓ Paid from €6/mo vs $15/mo
- ✓ Flat per-site pricing
Matomo
Feature-heavy and enterprise.
Matomo packs heatmaps, session recordings, and A/B testing into an enterprise suite. MetriXs focuses on the essential traffic metrics most teams actually use, in a faster, simpler dashboard, with a free tier and flat pricing from €6/mo.
- ✓ Simpler, faster dashboard
- ✓ Free tier and flat pricing
- ✓ Cookieless by default, no config
Pirsch
Deep analytics from Germany.
Pirsch has funnels, A/B testing, session drill-down, and white labeling, priced on a pageview slider. MetriXs is flat per site with a free tier, so your bill does not move with traffic, and adds a Shopify commerce integration Pirsch does not have.
- ✓ Free plan vs 30-day trial only
- ✓ Flat pricing vs pageview slider
- ✓ Shopify commerce metrics
