Affiliate edges out Google Analytics for WooCommerce on rating (4.5★ vs 4.3★), but the gap is small enough that pricing fit and feature differentiation should drive the decision more than the headline number. On pricing, Google Analytics for WooCommerce offers a free tier (Free) while Affiliate starts at $179/year. The free option meaningfully reduces evaluation cost, particularly for stores at sub-1K monthly orders where the entry-paid tier can outpace the value delivered. Affiliate has the larger user base (120 reviews vs 53), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. Google Analytics for WooCommerce's smaller cohort can be an advantage for niche workflows where the bigger app has accumulated bloat. Recommended by store size: small/early-stage merchants who need fast install and low risk should default to Affiliate; mid-market and enterprise merchants with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — Google Analytics for WooCommerce's 53-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than Affiliate's broader-but-shallower coverage. This verdict is generated from the live marketplace data on this page — rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position all refresh from the canonical WooCommerce Marketplace listing every 24 hours. AppRanks does not accept payment to influence comparison outcomes; the methodology is documented on the About page and applies identically to every pair on the site.
