Who Uses Angelfish?
Angelfish customers typically have an IT department budget and a Data Protection requirement.
Angelfish keeps your data behind your firewall, which lets you avoid components of Data Protection Laws: ADPPA, GDPR, CCPA, PIPEDA, PIPA, etc.
Many of our customers are in Healthcare, Finance, and Government, but we have customers in every major industry.
Angelfish was first released in 2013, and the product receives regular updates.
Our Customers Say:
"It's been a great product and your support is always first-rate."
"Really happy to have found Angelfish. We have to keep data in-house."
"Instead of sending more info to Google, we use Angelfish!"
How does Angelfish Work?
You install Angelfish on a server in your internal network: the application is administered by your staff.
When you keep your data within your network, you avoid most data protection regulations.
Angelfish is self-contained: it uses an embedded database and web server. You don’t need a DBA or a website admin to run Angelfish.
Angelfish uses web server log files to create reports. Reports are created from standard access log data, or from JS tracking beacons stored in the log.
Log analysis is flexible, unblockable, and truly cookieless. Users can block JS-based tracking, but they can’t hide from the access log.
It’s surprising to learn how many of your website’s visitors block JS-based tracking. It’s an issue for external AND internal visitors.
