Yandex Metrica and NANA800 Analytics: the difference
Yandex Metrica counts site visits, traffic sources and ads for free, while NANA800 Analytics counts events by your own user id on a site, in an app and on a server. Metrica answers where visitors came from, nana800 answers what each person did in the product. They are usually used together.

When to choose NANA800 Analytics
- You need product analytics: what every signed up user does, not only visits
- You need events from an app and a server together with the site, by one person id
- You need funnels and retention from your own events with property conditions
- You want to show a client a dashboard by a link, without a Yandex account
When to choose Yandex Metrica
- You need free web analytics of visits, traffic sources and ads
- You need visit recordings in Webvisor
- You want tags and ad reports without writing code
How to use them together
Metrica stays for traffic and ads: where people came from, what a visit cost, which ads work. nana800 covers what happens after sign up: registration, creating a project, payment, coming back a week later. To connect the two, pass the utm and yclid tags as nana800 event properties, as the guide to events and tags shows. Then funnels and retention can be split by ad campaign.
Frequently asked questions
How is product analytics different from Yandex Metrica?
Metrica counts site visits and traffic sources. Product analytics like nana800 counts the actions of specific users by their id on a site, in an app and on a server. From them it builds funnels, retention and the history of each person.
Should I remove Metrica when I add nana800?
No. They answer different questions and work on one site side by side. Metrica stays for traffic and ads, nana800 for user behavior in the product.
Does nana800 send data to Yandex Metrica?
No. nana800 keeps events to itself and sends them nowhere. utm and yclid tags can be kept in nana800 as event properties, but Metrica gets them through its own counter.
Can I show a report to a client without access to my account?
In nana800 yes: a public dashboard link opens without login. In Metrica statistics access goes to a user with a Yandex account, who has to sign in.
