Detailed Review
Koko Analytics answers the residency question by deleting it. It is a WordPress plugin from ibericode BV in Nijmegen that counts visits inside your own database: no external service receives the data, no cookies are needed, and there is no dashboard hosted by anyone else. Every other tool in this directory asks you to pick a processor and trust it; Koko Analytics has no processor to pick.
That also fixes the limits. The plugin measures the WordPress site it is installed on and nothing else, and the server it runs on is yours to keep fast, patched and backed up — the work a hosted vendor would otherwise be doing for you. ibericode is a Dutch private company registered with the Chamber of Commerce under number 65413741, with VAT number NL856102337B01 and an address at St.
Jacobslaan 51 in Nijmegen. It says it started in 2010, but neither the site nor the repository states when the plugin itself began; the GitHub repository goes back to October 2019.
The code is open under GPL-3.0 on ibericode's own GitHub, so the claim that nothing is sent to a third party is verifiable rather than promised.
The plugin is free; Pro costs €59 a year for one site, €99 for five and €249 for twenty-five, with a 30-day refund instead of a trial and no statement about VAT on the pricing page. There is no independent certification, which for software that never phones home is a smaller gap than usual — there is no third party left to audit.
What Koko Analytics does well
- Data stays in your own WordPress database, with no third-party service involved
- No cookies, so no consent banner
- Open source under GPL-3.0, so the no-external-services claim is checkable
- Dutch company, ibericode BV in Nijmegen, KvK 65413741
- Free plugin, with Pro published at €59 a year for one site
Where Koko Analytics falls short
- WordPress only — no use to a site built on anything else
- Your own server carries the storage, the backups and the uptime
- No independent certification such as ISO 27001
- Neither the plugin's founding year nor the VAT treatment of Pro is published
Standout feature. Nothing leaves your server, so there is no data residency question to answer and no sub-processor list to read.
