Hey guys,
Can anyone recommend a good analytics service or addon for Magento? Currently I use only Google Analytics, but I'm not satisfied with the number of missed transactions in its reports.

    You may try Google Analytics - it's free and easy to use. But note that with Google Analytics you will miss out about 5-10% of all transactions, which can negatively influence the final result.

    Also, Google Analytics displays only the very basic metrics such as profit, revenue and traffic sources and is totally useless for subtracting discounted products and refunds, calculating shipment and taxes expenses and also PayPal fees.

    Alternatively, you may check SavvyCube - http://savvycube.com/ - new eCommerce analytics for Magento.

    The main advantage over Google analytics is that the software provides more correct sales data and shows lots of extra metrics, such as tax fees, shipping fees, etc.

    That is the detailed review of the service: SavvyCube Review

    Check it out and let me know your thoughts.

    OLAP reporting for $24, what planet is everyone on. RJMetrics and Wunderdata are the top names but primarily use something based around SAP BW OLAP reporting, but that's for the multi-million sites so you can skip that.

    We use Google Analytics with Magento and the missed conversion rate is <1%. Note that orders placed in the admin (Phone orders etc) will not register with GA unless you take some extra steps

    Actually, I've doubled checked all the settings, and everything looks fine.

    Seems like I'm not the only one who has the same issue:
    Magento - Forum - eCommerce Software for Growth

    Gonna try SavvyCube and Google Universal Analytics extension to see how they can help.

    We are using the rjmetrics for several client's projects. Just installed the savvy cube soft. The client is happy for now. I will check how it goes later.

    E-commerce reporting and stats is utilized to assist you manage your current operations and increase into new viewers and marketplaces, yet numerous company owners are not able to integrate this to their operating performance.
    To get into the best results for the online shop, including decreasing abandoned cart prices and retaining useful customers, think about Moco Insight -- the software-as-a-service (SaaS) Magento superior reporting remedy.

      This service cannot be called analytical service at all It's just a group of reports they provide in their extension. Who is interested in having a report revenue by zip codes if you do not have a net profit, margin etc.
      Their service is uselessness.

    Google analytics is pretty good. There might be a technical glitch which will pass away with time.
