So I was investigating what analytics I can use to track ROI and conversions using Easy Digital Downloads. Because Awesome Motive owns both companies, they ONLY support monsterinsights for tracking E-commerce conversions, so basically you are forced to buy the monsterinsights pro if you want analytics.
I have emailed monsterinsights as their FAQ was missing this: Will the plugin work at all after the first year support / updates expire? NO was the answer – it completely stops working. I have never seen another plugin company have this sort of ridiculous shameful policy. Have you? I will not buy plugins that just stop working, it’s one thing to not provide access to updates, another to just brick your plugin.
So
1) How is monsterinsights getting away with this on WordPress?
2) What is the best replacement solution for e-commerce anlaytics with easy digital downloads? Does the default Google Site Kit work? Tracking ROI and conversions is a must, though of course many people do block google analytics these days with ad blockers, still it can be useful.
