turbometrics vs Vibes

turbometrics measures the real performance of your WordPress website from your visitors’ perspective — not from a lab environment. While synthetic tools (like Lighthouse or PageSpeed Insights) measure your site under controlled conditions, turbometrics shows what your real visitors experience: on their devices, with their internet connection, from their region. What the plugin does Automatically embeds the turbometrics tracking script in the of every page Measures LCP, CLS, INP, FCP and TTFB from your real visitors Optionally excludes WordPress administrators from tracking Marks WooCommerce checkout pages separately for precise analysis Shows Core Web Vitals and all 5 metrics directly in the WordPress dashboard widget Core Web Vitals Google evaluates websites based on three signals: LCP (Largest Contentful Paint) — loading time of main content CLS (Cumulative Layout Shift) — visual stability during load INP (Interaction to Next Paint) — response time to clicks turbometrics shows you whether your site meets these thresholds for real visitors — and alerts you when it does not.

Vibes is a robust user experience and browsing performances monitoring solution that analyzes perceived performances from users’ viewpoint. It is fully autonomous – does not rely on external services and does not require any API keys, works on any type of hosting and in any type of environment – including staging, intranets or password protected sites. By continuously monitoring user experience, Vibes can report: navigation performance KPIs per pages – like latency, redirections, browser caching hit rates, etc.; network timelines as if you were in the dev tools of your users’ browsers; resources details – like initiators, protocols, mime types, average sizes, etc.; Web Vitals: LCP, FID, CLS, FCP and TTFB. It can segment all this data per: user type (anonymous vs. authenticated); channel (frontend vs. backend); country (requires the free IP Locator plugin); device classes and types (requires the free Device Detector plugin).
