Google Analytics vs Hit Counter

Based on the data on this page, Google Analytics is the stronger choice for most Wix App Market site owners — 5.0★ vs Hit Counter's 4.2★ is a meaningful gap that usually reflects real product or support quality differences across the user base.

Pricing entry tiers: Google Analytics at Free plan available, Hit Counter at Free plan available. Check each app's tier structure for the capacity limits you actually need before deciding — the headline number is the same shape, but the gating shape per tier (seats, usage volume, integrations) varies.

Hit Counter has the larger user base (254 reviews vs 6), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. Google Analytics's smaller cohort can be an advantage for niche workflows where the bigger app has accumulated bloat.

Recommended by size: small/early-stage site owners who need fast install and low risk should default to Google Analytics; mid-market and enterprise site owners with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — Hit Counter's 254-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than Google Analytics's broader-but-shallower coverage.
