There are open source alternatives that do similar things, I want to give people not the hassle of setting up servers, maintaining their versions, and having no updates if they don't. See it as non-self hosted solution like Heroku is for deployment. I believe it should be simple as installing a Google Analytics code.
Matomo has both “cloud-hosted” and self-hosted options. What is the advantage to using this compared to Matomo’s “cloud-hosting”?
I guess you're not paying Matomo and don't need to have another company controlling your data?
But you're paying a closed-source and for-profit company instead, so how exactly is that better than Matomo or Fathom?
