I'm interested in keeping Google Analytics too.

We have years of historic data there and they are useful right now, since we'll want to ensure that the top 30 pages are still perfectly working if we change the web infrastructure. Also, Google Analytics data will help if we ever decide to restructure the site (dropping the majority of pages and keeping only pages that receive traffic). And if we interrupt data collection now there is no way back.

AWStats is not a feature-complete replacement by any means and it also places additional requirements on the server. I understand that it is better from a philosophical/ideological perspective (open source, self hosted). We can try and add it - we can have both AWStats and Google Analytics working at the same time and then judge which one is better after some months.

Google Analytics is an industry standard; if we configure it in a way that honors do-not-track requirements and does not store irrelevant data about users I believe it is acceptable. We've already applied a reasonable trade-off in the past to ensure Google Analytics does not become too invasive.

Regards,
  Andrea.
