> if someone is a PostHog customer they probably won't be using Ahref web analytics

It's (un)surprisingly common to end up with multiple website analytics products on the same site; marketing wants these two, another department wants another. When I had ghostery show the list of things it was blocking I often saw multiple, overlapping-feature-set analytics integrations being blocked on the same site.




Yes, I have seen organizations with websites that had 15+ trackers because every person in the company had their favourite tool.


I've seen companies from the inside where those 15+ trackers were all added by one person in the span of a week.

I've also seen those trackers be added by someone who exits the organization a month later there by blessing the trackers with a protection spell making their removal unlikely for fear of breaking some metric pipeline somewhere.
