Key differences explained

Alke Analytics vs. Google Analytics

While Google Analytics remains the most widely used analytics platform, it presents several challenges for publishers:

Challenges with Google Analytics:

  • Individual property silos: Each site must be analyzed separately, making group-level insights difficult
  • Generic approach: Not designed for publisher-specific needs like CMP consent tracking
  • Complex implementation: Requires significant configuration for advanced publisher use cases
  • GDPR concerns: US-based data processing creates compliance challenges
  • Sampling issues: Large publishers often face data sampling, reducing accuracy

Alke Analytics Advantage:

  • Unified group analysis: See all your properties at once
  • Publisher-first approach: Built specifically for digital publishers' needs
  • Straightforward implementation: Works out of the box for publisher use cases
  • European hosting and company: Complete GDPR compliance by design
  • Unsampled data: Always get complete data regardless of volume

Alke Analytics vs. Plausible & Fathom

Privacy-focused analytics tools like Plausible and Fathom offer simplified alternatives to Google Analytics, but lack publisher-specific capabilities:

Limitations of privacy-focused alternatives:

  • Limited depth: Basic metrics only, missing key publisher insights
  • Single-site focus: Not designed for multi-property publishers
  • Limited customization: Few options for publisher-specific tracking needs
  • Basic filtering: Simple filtering capabilities only

Alke Analytics Advantage:

  • Publisher depth with privacy: Combined privacy focus with publisher-specific insights
  • Multi-property analysis: Designed for publishers with multiple sites
  • Specialized metrics: Built-in tracking for publisher-specific needs
  • Advanced filtering: Powerful comparison engine for complex analysis
