5,000+ active installs · Rated 4.5/5 · Updated April 2, 2024
A plugin for sending custom Google Analytics events, such as clicks, views of a pricing table or video plays, without writing JavaScript.

It suits sites still on older Analytics setups. A free version exists alongside a paid Pro version.
