Still in Beta, so maybe not for prime time.

It looks really nice, customizable views via drag and drop re-ordering of menus, good set of stats...

To be honest, I've been looking for something decent to break my Google Analytics habit. If this matures, it might be an option.

Unfortunately, as with many open source projects, this might get stuck in perpetual beta. I'm also not willing to take it prime time until I see some security and vulnerability analysis of it.

I really want to take my analytics data off of the Google servers, but unfortunately, Google Analytics is just too convenient and in depth for the moment.

I've also just taken a look at this... it seems to be the first real open source alternative to GA.

I agree with Grelmar in terms of needing to wait and see whether any major security flaws are uncovered, but if it passes that test then I can't see many reasons for people uncomfortable sharing their data to stay with GA.

Having said that, the GA interface is wonderful and I think it'll be a long time until an open source project matches every element of GA.
