Why Betterlytics?

A deeper look at what makes Betterlytics different

Same Values, Different Toolsets

Plausible and Betterlytics share the same DNA: privacy-first, lightweight, no cookies, GDPR-ready out of the box. Both are great alternatives to Google Analytics if privacy matters to you.

The difference? Betterlytics includes session replay, user journey tracking, and monitoring. Plausible keeps things minimal on purpose. If you need behavioral insights beyond pageviews and conversions, we've got you covered.

Privacy-Safe Session Replay

Plausible skips session replay entirely to stay maximally private. Fair choice. But it means you can't see where users click, where they get stuck, or why they leave.

We include session replay while staying cookieless and privacy-compliant. No cross-site tracking, you control what gets recorded. The behavioral insights you need with strong privacy safeguards.

One Tool Instead of Three

Plausible does core analytics really well: pageviews, referrers, conversions, funnels. Clean and focused. But when you need uptime monitoring or performance tracking, you're adding more tools.

Betterlytics bundles analytics, session replay, user journeys, and monitoring in one place. One dashboard, one bill, same privacy standards across everything.

Pricing Breakdown

Plausible starts at $9/month for 10,000 pageviews. No free tier on hosted, though self-hosting is free if you handle the infrastructure.

Betterlytics starts at $6/month with a free tier for smaller sites. You get session replay, monitoring, user journeys included. More features, lower starting price.

When Plausible Fits Better

Plausible keeps its scope intentionally narrow: privacy-first traffic analytics with a famously minimalist UI. If you just need pageviews, referrers, and conversion goals with zero extra surface area, Plausible's focused product and established brand might be the more comfortable choice.

Betterlytics adds session replay, journeys, performance insights, and monitoring without abandoning that privacy baseline. If you're ready for deeper behavior insight and fewer vendors, the extra capability is already built in; no extra tools to stitch together.
