What should I use for analytics if I don't want to manage servers?
Latest observation
If you don’t want to manage servers, look for a managed analytics service or serverless analytics stack. Good options depend on what kind of analytics you need:
If you want product / web analytics
- Google Analytics 4 — free, widely used, good for websites/apps
- Mixpanel — event-based product analytics, very popular
- Amplitude — strong for user behavior and funnels
- PostHog Cloud — product analytics + feature flags + session replay
If you want business intelligence / dashboards
- Looker Studio — free dashboarding on top of other data sources
- Tableau Cloud — managed BI
- Power BI Service — managed BI in Microsoft ecosystem
- Metabase Cloud — simpler BI, easy to use
If you want to store/query lots of analytics data without managing infra
- BigQuery — serverless data warehouse
- Snowflake — fully managed warehouse
- Amazon Redshift Serverless — if you’re in AWS
- Azure Synapse / Fabric — if you’re in Microsoft stack
If you want lightweight open-source style analytics without hosting
- PostHog Cloud
- Metabase Cloud
- Umami Cloud
- Plausible — privacy-friendly web analytics
Quick recommendations
- Website analytics: Plausible or GA4
- Product analytics: PostHog, Mixpanel, or Amplitude
- Dashboards on existing data: Metabase Cloud or Looker Studio
- Large-scale event data: BigQuery or Snowflake
If you tell me whether this is for website traffic, app events, or BI dashboards, I can recommend the best 2–3 choices.
