Migrate from Mixpanel to TrackFox

Mixpanel is powerful but expensive. TrackFox gives you what you need at 1/10th the cost.

  • Complex features we don't use
  • Steep learning curve
  • Requires dedicated analyst

"No web analytics"

  • Needs custom events for everything
  • Doesn't track pageviews by default
  • No referrer/source tracking built-in
