Compare Umami alternatives
Umami is itself a free, open-source (MIT-licensed) web analytics tool built to be lightweight — a small Node.js and Postgres app with a tracking script under 2KB. Teams comparing analytics tools often land on Umami specifically because they want less than what larger platforms offer, so an "alternative" here usually means either more features or a different technical stack.
If you need funnels, heatmaps, session recordings, or e-commerce tracking that Umami doesn't provide, Matomo or PostHog cover that broader ground. If you want something just as minimal as Umami but with a different self-hosted stack, OpenPanel is a comparable cookieless option.
