Analytics tools for your team

Count the websites you manage and the people who need the reports. speo plans set website and user limits; an account’s websites share one Hit allowance.

Plausible and Fathom each count pageviews and custom events towards the selected allowance. speo expresses usage in Hits. One visit can include several pageviews or events, so compare the actions your website’s integration actually records too.
