Umami
Mentioned 7x by users
73/100

Open-source and self-hostable with a free cloud tier. Trade-off: fewer polished reports and you manage hosting if self-hosting.

Google Analytics
Mentioned 7x by users

Free with deep reports and integrations. Trade-off: cookies, consent banners and privacy concerns, which are why many users leave it.

Matomo
