I lost 5 minutes of my life trying to find out how to install this...

This is a very easy to use module. Install, get the counter ID from their website and go. Unfortunately, there are too many negative things for me to use it at this time.

Good:
- easy and fast to install
- records the statistics on a remote server saving performance of your server / database since your server is not writing to tables each page view
- clean, simple and effective user interface
- fast reporting server using ajax

Bad:
- I believe, forgive me if my understanding is incorrect. I don't really know programming. That said, I believe the logo and application javascript are pulled from a remote server. The installed module's job is to just call that script and sit back. This could potentially be a security threat should that javascript change and request information such as user id and pw. Perhaps this is not possible?
- Data is not secure as it does not require an ID / PW to look at the statistics. A competitor can easily click from the counter ID logo (on your webpage) to view your traffic information including search terms.
- Website in English, install instructions in German
- The counter ID logo is visible on your website. Perhaps its possible to create an invisible position to publish this module?? If so, this would help with superficial security as well.
- Does not track Joomla visitors but just IP addresses
- My country details were incorrect. I came from Singapore and it reported me as USA
- Did not display the version numbers of the browser just the browser brand (ie FF, IE, etc.)

Recommendations:
- provide a secure login to view the statistics.
- run all javascript from our server rather than pulling from your central server
- from a design point of view, its nice that the data is off site reducing demand on our server. perhaps you could provide the backend modules for us to install on one of our own servers giving the benefits of a remote server and security

I gave this an average because the distributed computing design is good. That said, I would not recommend this as I believe there is a very high security risk.

This module was very hard to set up; I found it hard to navigate the web site to find support because it was half in German and half in English. The module readme was in German, and it was hard to understand after translating it (Google Translate). I managed to get it set up, and the service works. However, I have this big ugly button on my web site, and I don't want my users to be able to access the stats. I've tried modifying the code to remove this button, but I can't seem to.

This does what it says it will, but it's not worth using, in my opinion. My suggestions for improvement: German AND English instructions, an easier-to-navigate website (with German and English), password-protected stats, stats hosted on our own server (not really needed, just a suggestion), improve the ease of use (e.g. a hide button option in the module options).

As easy as installing any module. Setup in about 1 minute. good job!

This is exactly what I was searching for. A very nice service!

Easy installation once I translated the instructions from german to english. I have just installed and checked the stats and seems to be working great. The only problem I see is it doesn't show the stats on you site which I would recommend for future versions, it has to refer back to the authors site to display them.
