## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** The plain part of Elevar you could make: reports. What surrounds it you could not. The 3 things listed below take a company, not a weekend. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 46 of the 100 other website and product analytics tools grade higher. It costs $2,700 a year.

- You could make: Reports: an app builder makes this well.
- You could not: A tracking script and a database that counts every visit.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, Shopify, Meta and GA4 among them, and has an API.
- You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.

A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool. Nothing was built to test it.
