EU-approved third countryWeb analyticsFreemiumEU data storage ✓ISO 27001
Web analytics with open source that you can self-host completely for free, with cloud version stored in Germany. The catch: the company behind it, InnoCraft, is New Zealand-based and self-hosting requires your own operation and maintenance.
Open source: self-host on a Swedish server for total data control
Cloud version stored at AWS in Frankfurt with backup within the EU
The company behind it, InnoCraft, is registered in New Zealand, not the EU
Best for: Companies that want full control over analytics data through self-hosting, or a mature GA4 replacement with all features

American top-class lead tracking: calls, forms and chat are tied to the exact ad that generated the customer. The catch for Swedish companies: all data is stored and processed in the USA, prices are in USD and usage fees are added on top of the subscription.
Unusually broad lead attribution with calls, forms, chat and e-commerce in the same view
Top ratings from users globally (4.9 out of 5 on both G2 and Capterra); the product itself is excellent
All data is stored and processed in the USA (AWS) under US law, with no stated transfer mechanism in the privacy policy; a red flag in our Schrems III traffic light
Best for: Agencies and ad-driven companies that want to see exactly which campaigns generate calls and leads, and that can handle US data storage.
