Users appreciate the StatCounter plugin for its detailed analytics, user-friendly interface, and quick setup, especially in comparison to Google Analytics. Many have used it for years, valuing the extensive information it provides about website visitors, which helps with site improvements and quick, reliable client reports.
However, users frequently encounter severe issues: the plugin is hard to activate, has display problems, and sometimes causes page distortions. There are complaints about the cumbersome setup process and limited page views in the free version. Additionally, there are frustrations with the plugin's tendency to insert unwanted code snippets, causing further site complications, and poor customer service responsiveness.
