JAMP vs Google Analytics
Google Analytics tells you about traffic, in exchange for cookies, consent banners and a steep learning curve. JAMP gives you the numbers that matter without the cookie banner, and adds uptime, errors and real-user performance in the same place.

Why teams choose JAMP over Google Analytics
No cookie banners, ever
Google Analytics relies on cookies and personal data, which is what forces the consent banner and the GDPR paperwork. JAMP is cookieless by architecture, so the banner simply goes away.
Monitoring is built in
GA only knows about traffic. JAMP watches uptime, catches JavaScript errors with source-mapped stack traces, and tracks real-user vitals, all in the same dashboard as your analytics.
Your data stays yours
GA sends visitor data into Google. JAMP keeps it on our own hardware in the EU, never samples it, and never shares it.
In fairness
Google Analytics is free and extremely deep for marketers who live in audiences, funnels and Google Ads attribution. If tight Google Ads integration is the centre of your world, GA is hard to beat.
