Comparison
Looking for an AgencyAnalytics alternative?
An honest, side-by-side comparison for South African agencies. Where Kanvro wins, where AgencyAnalytics is still the better choice, and the FX maths on a 30-client agency.
The TL;DR
AgencyAnalytics is a mature, US-built reporting tool with 80+ integrations and roughly a decade of polish. If you need to report on Google Ads, Mailchimp, Stripe, and Shopify alongside social — keep evaluating it.
Kanvro is built in South Africa, priced in Rands, and has signup attribution as a core feature instead of a missing one. Where the two are closest is multi-client social reporting; where Kanvro is genuinely better is the “does this content actually drive business?” question your client keeps asking.
The October 2025 AgencyAnalytics price hike
In October 2025, AgencyAnalytics doubled its per-client overage rate from USD 10 to USD 20 per client per month above your tier's included cap. This change pushes mid-sized SA agencies into a different cost bracket than they planned for.
Run the maths for an agency with 30 active clients on the AgencyAnalytics Agency tier (USD 79/mo includes 5 clients):
Now compare to Kanvro Amplify at R12,000/mo for up to 10 clients, or Command at R25,000/mo unlimited. Amplify is roughly comparable; Command — at unlimited clients — is meaningfully cheaper than AgencyAnalytics + 25 clients of overage and avoids FX swings entirely.
The deeper point isn't the headline price — it's that Kanvro's tier caps remove the overage surprise. With AgencyAnalytics, every new client is another USD 20/mo line item that scales with the rand. With Kanvro, you upgrade to the next tier when you outgrow the current one and your monthly cost stays predictable.

Where AgencyAnalytics is still better
We'd rather you make the right call than the Kanvro call. AgencyAnalytics wins on:
- Integration breadth. If you need Google Ads / GA4 / Mailchimp / Stripe / Shopify in the same dashboard as social, AgencyAnalytics has them today and Kanvro doesn't.
- PDF report generation. If your clients still want monthly PDFs they can email to their boards, AgencyAnalytics has a mature builder. Kanvro is dashboard-first.
- White-label. Available now on AgencyAnalytics Agency tier; on Kanvro's roadmap.
- Years of polish. AgencyAnalytics has been iterating since 2010. We're newer. Some edge cases their tool handles, ours doesn't (yet).
Where Kanvro is the better call
- Your clients ask “but did it drive business?” in every monthly review. Signup attribution answers that. AgencyAnalytics doesn't.
- You're tired of FX surprises. ZAR pricing and fixed tier caps mean your monthly cost is predictable.
- POPIA matters in your DPA conversations. SA-hosted, deletion webhooks honoured, encryption at rest. Removes the tool-side compliance risk.
- You're running 10–30 clients and the per-client overage is biting. Kanvro Amplify (10 clients) and Command (unlimited) are designed for this.
- You'd rather have product feedback heard. Founding agencies shape Kanvro's roadmap directly. AgencyAnalytics is a mature product with millions of users — your one feature request will not move quickly.
