Umami

Umami is an open-source, privacy-friendly web analytics tool that provides you with the key metrics for your websites in real time: visitors, page views, referral sources, devices and locations – all clearly presented in a single dashboard. Umami does not use cookies and does not collect any personal data from visitors; so you do not need a cookie banner for purely statistical purposes. The tracking script is extremely lightweight and has virtually no impact on your pages’ loading times. With Managed Umami Hosting, you can run this analytics service on your own infrastructure without having to worry about servers, databases or updates.

A practical advantage: a single Umami instance can analyse as many websites as you like – ideal if you manage several websites.

Who is Umami suitable for?

Umami is ideal for Swiss SMEs looking for a straightforward alternative to Google Analytics: Agencies and web developers can manage the statistics for all their client projects centrally in a single instance; trust companies, law firms and medical practices can track visitor numbers without passing on their website visitors’ data to a US corporation; and clubs or online shops can see in real time how their campaigns and content are performing. Anyone who prefers simple, quick reports and doesn’t need complex analytics suites will find Umami a good fit.
