What is Umami?

Umami is an open-source analytics platform that shows traffic, campaigns, behaviour, conversions and revenue for your site in one place, without cookies. You can self-host it with Docker or use the cloud version. It needs Node.js and PostgreSQL if you run it yourself.

Third-party open-source projects. We are not affiliated with their authors; repositories are provided as-is by their maintainers. Review each project's license, code and security before installing. See our Disclaimer.

Pros: what Umami does well

  • No cookies, so no cookie banner for analytics
  • Clean dashboard for traffic and conversions
  • Self-host or use the cloud version

Cons: where it falls short

  • Self-hosting needs a database
  • Fewer features than the biggest analytics suites

Who Umami is for

Site owners who want simple, privacy-friendly stats on their visitors.

Who can skip it

Teams that need advanced advertising integrations.
