I've paid for KISSMetrics and really liked it. I know Mixpanel has grown, does anyone have reasons why I should use Mixpanel over KISSMetrics?
Also another good simple analytics service for all the different services you might use is DigMyData (http://digmydata.com/ http://digmydata.com/). I'm in a trial right now and finding it pretty useful.
- jdg 14y agoI pay for and prefer KISSMetrics, and also pay for Mixpanel (a separate project). KISSMetrics, visually, kicks ass. What sucks about it? It's not real-time. No simple real-time data export/querying API. The latter is nearly a show stopper. I mean, really? No export/querying API?
- yesimahuman 14y agoI've also heard that KISSMetrics is more about identifying people rather than data points, so it makes retention and user-based events easier, but it seems mixpanel does that too, so I'm not sure.
- jevanish 14y agoJust curious, but what makes real time so important to you? What do you do with your data instantly that wouldn't be better served rolling up over a longer period of time to remove any noise-iness and natural variability in your data? I'm genuinely interested in your use case. Also - KISSmetrics allows for data export to an S3 Amazon bucket in JSON format. http://support.kissmetrics.com/apis/data/data-export-setup http://support.kissmetrics.com/apis/data/data-export-setup ~Disclosure: I work at KISSmetrics.
