6 free alternatives to Apstal

Simple Analytics gives you one user, up to 5 websites, unlimited pageviews, and 30 days of analytics history on its free tier. It is a clean fit for builders who want privacy-first web analytics without juggling event ceilings. Compared with Apstal, it is stronger on website count and retention, since you can keep five sites and a month of history instead of one site and 24-hour replay retention. It falls short on product-style depth because it does not list session replay, AI querying, funnels, or error monitoring in the free tier. Switch if you want broader site coverage and a simpler reporting layer.

• Beats Apstal: 5 websites and 30 days of analytics history
• Falls short: No session replay or AI agent in the free tier
• Who should switch: Switch if you mainly need multi-site web analytics with longer lookback and less product-analytics complexity.

Plausible Analytics gives you a 30-day free trial with no credit card required, up to 10,000 monthly pageviews during the trial, and access to the Starter plan experience. That includes one site, three years of data retention on the Starter plan, dashboards, email and Slack reports, Google Analytics import, goals, custom events, and saved segments. It beats Apstal on retention by a wide margin once you are past the trial, and it offers a familiar analytics workflow for site owners who live in reports and goals. It falls short because the free access is time-limited, not perpetual, and the pageview ceiling is lower than Apstal's event allowance.

• Beats Apstal: 3 years of data retention on the Starter plan experience
• Falls short: Only a 30-day free trial instead of a perpetual free tier
• Who should switch: Switch if you want a short evaluation period and care more about long-term retention than ongoing free usage.

Amplitude's free tier gives you 10K monthly tracked users, up to 2M events, session replay, unlimited feature flags, web experimentation, AI Feedback, unlimited sources and destinations, and access to community resources. That is a much larger event ceiling than Apstal and adds experimentation tools that Apstal does not include in its free tier. It falls short on session replay retention specifics and can feel broader than a simple analytics stack because it is built for product teams and cross-functional workflows. Switch if your main constraint is event volume and you also want experimentation and feedback tools in the same free plan.

• Beats Apstal: Up to 2M events and unlimited feature flags
• Falls short: Broader product-suite focus rather than a web-analytics-first free tier
• Who should switch: Switch if you need more event headroom and want analytics, replay, experimentation, and feedback in one place.

Statcounter's free Basic plan is perpetual and includes traffic trend charts, an analytics dashboard with drill-down reports, real-time visitor feeds, weekly or monthly email reports, 14 days of data retention, and up to 5,000 sessions per month. It is lighter than Apstal, but it is straightforward and good at showing live visitor movement and long-running trends. It beats Apstal on simplicity of reporting for basic site monitoring, but it falls short on scale and depth because its free session cap is far lower, retention is shorter, and it does not offer the broader product-analytics feature set Apstal includes. Switch if you want simple, ongoing web stats with real-time visibility.

• Beats Apstal: Real-time visitor feeds and trend reporting in a perpetual free plan
• Falls short: Only 5,000 sessions per month and 14 days of retention
• Who should switch: Switch if you want a basic always-free tracker for a small site and do not need product analytics extras.

Umami gives you up to 100K events per month, up to 3 websites, 6 months of data retention, community support, and limited API access on its free tier. It is close to Apstal in event allowance, but it gives you more website coverage and much longer retention. The tradeoff is that it stays more minimal, with fewer built-in product and behavior features than Apstal's free plan. It is a good fit when you want no-cookie analytics for several sites and a longer history window without stepping into a heavier stack. Switch if your main problem is Apstal's one-website limit and 24-hour replay retention.

• Beats Apstal: 3 websites and 6 months of data retention
• Falls short: Less product and behavior analytics depth than Apstal
• Who should switch: Switch if you want a close web-analytics substitute with more room for multiple sites and longer history.

Aptabase's free tier includes unlimited apps, EU or US data residency, a built-in dashboard, Live View, session timeline, CSV export, SDKs for popular platforms, and 100% data ownership. It is the broadest option here for app coverage and platform support, especially if you track more than websites. It beats Apstal on app count because it allows unlimited apps, and it suits teams that care about local residency and ownership more than web-only funnels. It falls short because the free plan does not publish a concrete monthly event cap, so it is harder to compare for traffic-heavy use, and its focus is wider than Apstal's web analytics and replay workflow. Switch if you need analytics across many apps instead of one website.

• Beats Apstal: Unlimited apps with EU or US data residency
• Falls short: No clearly stated monthly event cap on the free plan
• Who should switch: Switch if you track mobile, desktop, or web apps and want broader platform coverage than Apstal offers.
