Export aggregated reports from Matomo (for example through its reporting API as CSV) and import them with the Matomo template.

Import method: CSV import, Matomo template

Steps

  1. 1

    Create a free account and add your site

    Sign up and add the domain. The Free plan needs no card.

  2. 2

    Add the Privatus snippet next to your current tool

    Run both for two to four weeks so you can compare numbers and check goals before switching.

  3. 3

    Recreate goals and funnels

    Goals apply retroactively in Privatus, so goals you define now also cover the data collected since you installed the snippet.

  4. 4

    Export aggregated reports

    Export daily reports for pages, referrers, countries and devices as CSV.

  5. 5

    Import with the Matomo template

    In Site settings, Imports, choose the Matomo template and review the mapping.

  6. 6

    Retire the old installation

    Once you've compared numbers, remove the Matomo tag and, if you self-host, archive the database.
