DataFast is a privacy-friendly analytics tool focused on revenue. People look for an alternative when they want a free plan, less configuration, or a tool that reads their existing pixels and cart automatically instead of asking them to wire up goals. Here's how the options compare.
If you're leaving DataFast because you want to know which traffic actually makes money, that's the whole point of Clicked - revenue, conversions and conversion rate by source, from one line of code, no cookie banner, free to start. It won't replace everything DataFast does; it answers the money question the others make you guess at.

Competitor details are our reading of each product at the time of writing, kept to broad, stable facts. Products change - check each vendor's own site for specifics.
Plausible, Fathom and Simple Analytics are paid-only. Clicked's free tier is a real plan, not a trial - 10,000 pageviews a month, free forever, no credit card. Plenty of sites never leave it.
The default analytics tool, used almost everywhere. Free and deep - but GA4 is complex, relies on cookies (so it needs a consent banner in the EU), and is built around sessions and events rather than the revenue each traffic source actually brings in.
Clicked vs Google Analytics →A clean, lightweight, open-source and cookieless analytics tool focused on simple traffic stats. Privacy-friendly and pleasant to use - but built around pageviews and visitors, with revenue attribution as a lighter add-on rather than the core.
Clicked vs Plausible →A fast, elegant, cookieless analytics tool in the same privacy-first family as Plausible. GDPR-friendly and simple by design - focused on visits and events rather than the revenue each source drives.
Clicked vs Fathom Analytics →The most complete open-source Google Analytics replacement. Self-host it for full data ownership or use their cloud. Powerful and GA-like - which also means it's heavier to run, configure and maintain than a drop-in tool.
Clicked vs Matomo →A deliberately minimal, cookieless analytics tool for a clean high-level view of your traffic. Privacy-first and easy - not built around per-source revenue.
Clicked vs Simple Analytics →A free, open-source, cookieless analytics tool you self-host. Lightweight and privacy-friendly, and free if you run it yourself - but it's a pageview dashboard, and you own the hosting and maintenance.
Clicked vs Umami →One line on your site. No cookie banner, no signup to try. Clicked reads the ad pixels and cart you already have and shows revenue, conversions and conversion rate by source - live.
Both tie traffic to revenue and both are cookieless - they're the two revenue-focused tools here. The difference is setup and pricing: DataFast is a configure-it tool on a paid plan, while Clicked auto-reads the ad pixels and cart you already have and has a free plan. If you want revenue attribution without wiring anything up, Clicked is the lighter path.
Clicked has a free plan (10,000 pageviews a month, no card); DataFast is paid with a trial. Pricing on both changes over time, so check current plans - but the free tier is a real difference if you're just starting out.
Yes - that's what sets both apart from plain pageview tools like Plausible or Fathom. The distinction is that Clicked figures out revenue by source automatically from your existing pixels and cart, where DataFast expects you to configure it.
Money-first analytics for stores and anyone buying traffic. Know what pays, skip the cookie banner.
