I've used Piwik since just prior to 1.0, as a more privacy-aware GA replacement. I've seen stability issues in a couple releases, but the project is under active development and tends to resolve issues quickly (in my experience).
I definitely agree with things feeling like a hodgepodge in places. Early on Piwik adopted a plugin architecture, but they have yet to implement any centralized templating. This led to a lot of strange and inconsistent front-end presentations and some strange implementations in the code. Many of these issues are corrected or updated in the recent releases. Templating and other major enhancements are planned for the 2.0 release (on the horizon, but no target date yet to my knowledge). You can definitely run Piwik on openshift. It also works fine within the AWS free usage tier, either as a vps-like standalone LAMP instance, or as a micro instance with the LAP portion and a micro RDS instance for the db. The micro instance works well holding 3 months of data for < 5,000 actions per day. It could probably handle more than that with some careful tuning, but I've not tested larger numbers on a micro instance. -- Nicholas On Wednesday, August 14, 2013 6:34:38 AM UTC-7, Chris Meller wrote: > > It's been several years since I last used it, but it looks like they've > done a good bit of work on the UI since then (one of my chief complaints > was that everything was so "big" it was hard to see anything at a glance). > > I remember it seeming... quirky.
