// EDITOR'S TAKE

Umami gives you the fastest self-hosted setup and a dashboard you can hand to a non-technical founder, while Rybbit adds funnels, goals and session-level detail if attribution is the point. Plausible Analytics is the safest long-term bet on maintenance, and Matomo only earns its heavier footprint if you genuinely need that depth of reporting.
