Strengths

  • The Starter plan already includes website and product analytics, earnings tracking, a goals dashboard, a live visitor map and up to three email reports.
  • Starter is also sold as a one-time lifetime license, limited to 100 seats in total, and Enterprise adds an isolated storage server and multiple agency teams.
  • Data can be exported at any time in formats such as CSV and JSON, and the pricing FAQ says this works on every plan.
  • The vendor says all data is stored on servers in the European Union and that stored data is encrypted.
  • The monthly fee follows actual usage: the pricing FAQ says it is recalculated from last month’s traffic and the three-month average.

Watch-outs

  • The tracker writes a persistent random ID to local storage and a session ID to session storage, while the vendor’s pages describe the service as cookieless with no personal data storage.
  • The tracker computes canvas and audio hashes, reads the graphics renderer and asks third-party geolocation services for the visitor’s location, storing the result, including the IP address, in the browser.
  • The installation guide shows a loader address that does not resolve and an event function that the tracker does not define, and the code on the vendor’s own site loads different files.
  • Vendor pages disagree about the trial: it lasts 15 or 14 days, and at the end the account either moves to an unspecified free plan or the card is charged.

Who it suits

Pretty Insights is a hosted service that puts website analytics, product analytics and earnings tracking in one platform. The vendor describes itself as an EU-based company that stores data on servers in the EU, but its terms of use still contain unfilled placeholders where the jurisdiction and business address belong.

Plans are priced by monthly pageviews or events. The pricing page pitches Starter at solopreneurs and side projects, with one user and up to 10 sites, and Professional at growing businesses and agencies, with two users, up to 20 sites, API access and custom events.

The tracker keeps a persistent visitor ID in local storage, so it does not match a strict reading of cookieless tracking; see what “cookieless” means here.

Setup

The installation guide says to add the site under Websites, copy the snippet from the Install Snippet tab and paste it before the closing head tag. On WordPress, it suggests a header code plugin such as Insert Headers and Footers.

The snippet printed in that guide does not match the code running on the vendor’s own site, which sets two variables, an account ID and a property ID, before loading the tracker file, and adds a second script for product events. The documentation does not describe this form.

The service is hosted only. API access and custom events are listed from the Professional plan.

Questions and answers

Does Pretty Insights use cookies?

Not by default, but it stores a persistent ID in the browser. The tracker sets a test cookie only when its server requests one, and it writes a persistent visitor ID to local storage and a session ID to session storage. The need for consent depends on the rules that apply to your site.

Is there a free Pretty Insights plan?

Not confirmed. The price table lists only paid plans with a free trial. The homepage FAQ says an expired trial moves to a free plan with unpublished limits, while the pricing FAQ says the card is charged unless you cancel before the trial ends.

Where is Pretty Insights data stored?

In the EU, according to the vendor, which calls itself an EU-based company with servers in the European Union. It names neither the country nor the hosting provider, and its terms of use leave the jurisdiction and business address as placeholders.

Can I export my Pretty Insights data?

Yes. The pricing FAQ says data can be exported at any time in formats such as CSV and JSON, on every plan including the free tier, and the homepage says data can also be deleted at any time without extra fees.
