Sad news from Nifty Stats
 

Dear users,

we offer you the free version of Nifty Stats for more than 3 years now. We are very glad, that Nifty Stats is an inseparable part of your work and that it saves you a lot of time while analyzing your sales, click etc.

Our whole team works daily on the free product, so it could work 100% and so that you can have more than 1000 up-to-date affiliate programs and that we can answer your questions as soon as possible sent via the support form.

Because of the fact, that we want to constantly enhance Nifty Stats, we need to change the user terms. From 21st of July 2010 you will be able to download statistics of up to 15 affiliate programs or advertising networks.

i check mine by hand. im old school.

i use stats remote

got this too, guess its time to take a look at stats remote

wtf does that mean?

not so good
 

With this move, they will just make competition stronger long term or even motivate some other people to offer similar service.

there are dozen small webmasters or people just doing this job sometimes, not as main job, that will stop using them fast.

If they already want to do this, my opinion is that they should reduce monthly price and give option to buy software forever . This way, they loose, long term,that's for sure.

it means there will no longer really be a free version since the free version will only allow 15 programs to be tracked - which is useless for most webmasters.

Thats $100 more a year.

Can't really blame them. They have bills and expenses, need to make money somehow. If the product is useful and saves time (which it does), users should be willing to contribute back.

Life ain't free.

i read nifty will be 200 per.

Yea and Stats remote is $299.

think i will go back to pen and accounting ledgers.

It means webmaster referral income isn't what it used to be?

good for them. they need to make their $$$

so what, they saved so much time for me and i have been thinking about buying them almost daily last time, so good move and i cant wait to see nifty without that boring banners :)

congrats, i'm too lazy for that.

I agree..


BTW, Bobby666, change your avatar man. I always skip over your posts, that gif is distracting when you're trying to read something.

I agree.

Me too.

Its cheap as fuck and saves you more time then it will cost you money checking stats manually.

Thumbs up for nifty, free or paid.

Porn is though... :Oh crap:Oh crap:Oh crap

Without a viable free version of Nifty there's no reason to use it anymore. Everyone is going to go back to statsremote. The only thing that made Nifty so popular was its price.

You cant pay that?
Wowz0rss.

:2 cents:

statsremote free version is just as limited, if not more. i'd think this is still a viable option for many part time webmasters.

and if it's not, time to pay up (regardless of which you choose :winkwink: )

SR all the way here, never tried NS. always been happy with SR

I have been a stats remote customer for 5 years now and I love it! no need to go anywhere else

Downloadable statistics are good.

it's actually not bad at all, but yea, main selling point was the fact it was free... :thumbsup

Statsremote doesn't have a free version. There's a limited trial that works for a week or 20 starts, whichever comes first.

I wonder if the free version can be upgraded.

Sux to re enter all the sponsors again.

I guess no one is clicking their banners. :(

oh man dont scare me ... :)

I thought I was the only one doing it by hand :)

StatsRemote is clean and awesome. I have no problem paying for such software. I tried Nifty and never liked it much, what was that other free one United Stats or something?? Are they still around?

That's fine, but can you stop using nudity on your pop ups?

Another happy statsremote customer here:thumbsup

SR - $29.99 per month
NS - $19.95 per month

I bought NS ....

$29.99 per month to check stats? too much.

honestly who think he supported their free version? :winkwink: I'm already using full version long time
