Koko Analytics – Privacy-Friendly WordPress Analytics


Nice simple and privacy friendly plugin


After initial problems works fine


Koko Analytics is a privacy-friendly analytics plugin that does exactly what it says on the tin. It's simple, effective, and respects the privacy of your visitors.


Excellent Plugin

Perfect


If you avoid google analytics and similar scripts and you just need simple visitor statistics, you can choose koko analytics! very lightweight and easy to use.


easy peasy must have plugin

came here from slimstat after that seemed to have silently died (it seems back now), but haven't looked back since. love the events in kokopro too! ;-)

great job


I don't like the idea of very complex and granular analytics. I typically don't need or have time to review analytical tools like that. I just want to see the number of visitors, popular pages, and maybe a couple of other things. This plugin covers it. Most importantly, it looks clean. At least currently, there are no ads or other gaudy things in the dashboard.


I'm a fan


You don't need anything else. Would be great if I could import Jetpack data into it.



A great great Analytics tool for WordPress. It's fast, customizable, self-hosted and privacy friendly but what even stands out are the customer support and easy to use events in premium version. Really well thought out.


Perfect!


It is a simple plugin but is effective. Really love the Jetpack Statistics import function. Made it easy to switch. Look forward to seeing what new features will come.


Simple but effective


Koko Analytics is a lightweight and efficient plugin, standing out as one of the few that offers REST API support. This unique feature inspired us to integrate it with our app.



Additionally, the plugin's support team is responsive, helpful, and quick to address any issues, making it an excellent choice for website owners.


Nice and light plugin


Koko Analytics provides me with just the stats I need. It is simple, fast, and reliable and the developer continues to update it. 👏


Simple, Fast, Reliable


I'm using it for all websites that need simple stats, that's just perfect !


Excellent small stats plugin


Easy to set up and gives you the statistics most customers needs. No need for bulky and slow analytics that no one uses!


Just wonderful!


I love this plugin and use it as my standard solution for local and GDPR conform website stats.
