AnalyticFast vs Google Analytics: pricing and measurement tradeoffs

Use AnalyticFast when a focused payment-source workflow is the priority. Keep Google Analytics when its reports and advertising connections are operational requirements. Budget for implementation time as well as subscription fees.

Compare the reporting workflow, not a free-versus-paid slogan

Choose a recent campaign and reconcile its purchases with the payment ledger. Compare attribution model, date boundaries, refunds, consent settings, and identification. Differences in visitor totals alone do not prove either installation is wrong.

Pricing and usage to check

Google Analytics standard is available free of charge. Analytics 360 pricing is unknown here; request a quote. Official pricing.

Free does not mean every feature is unlimited. Export, collection, and reporting have distinct limits. BigQuery processing/storage may incur separate charges. No unofficial 360 price is quoted.

AnalyticFast monthly plans

AnalyticFast public plans, monthly billing in USD
Plan	Price	Workspace usage	Sites
Free	US$0/month	5,000 events/month	1 site
Growth	US$9/month	50,000 events/month	5 sites
Scale	US$29/month	250,000 events/month	20 sites

Events and pageviews are different billing units. Goals and other tracked actions can increase event usage. Compare the same installation settings, billing term, currency, and retention period. Check current AnalyticFast pricing before subscribing.

Interpreting differences

A purchase recorded on a return page may arrive at a different time from a provider webhook. Align timezones and reporting windows, then check currency and refund handling. Compare transaction IDs before comparing attributed totals. Treat an unmatched payment as a measurement gap to investigate.

AnalyticFast connects recorded visits to payments through configured integrations or its payment API. Matching depends on available identifiers and the visits actually recorded; it cannot reconstruct every blocked, cross-device, or offline journey. Its browser tracker is not a complete server access log.

Make the decision concrete

Inventory the campaign and advertising reports used by your team.
Document consent settings and purchase instrumentation in each tool.
Compare transaction-level results before interpreting different user totals.

Record which tool answers your weekly decision with the least additional work. Keep a separate product analytics or advertising tool if that workflow remains useful.
