Angelfish Software is a self-hosted web analytics tool that creates detailed reports from access logs.
Your CDN provider gives you access logs that contain a ton of useful information. The logs contain a record of each request for content.
Angelfish can read access logs from Azure CDN, Google Cloud CDN, Amazon CloudFront, Akamai, Fastly, Edgio, or any other CDN provider.
Angelfish also shows Visits that block JavaScript tracking, monitors access to sensitive files, and provides many other benefits:
Data Protection
Angelfish is secure, on-premises web analytics software – you install it on one of your servers, and login to the application via a web browser. Data is stored within the confines of your network, and you retain access control.
Traffic Spike Analysis
Angelfish lets you select a time frame as short as a single second. If you want to see details about a traffic spike yesterday morning at 10:07:23 AM, Angelfish will show you all site activity that occurred during that particular second.
Bandwidth & Broken Link Reports
Your CDN logs contain lots of great information that is often ignored. Angelfish shows total bandwidth by web server, broken links, “Page Not Found” errors, redirects, random status codes like “I’m a teapot” (418), and more.
Stolen Bandwidth
Your CDN provider charges you for bandwidth. If another website embeds your images or videos on their site, you will be charged for your content to be shown on another website. We call this Stolen Bandwidth – it’s also called hotlinking, and Angelfish tells you if it’s happening on your site.
No Tagging Required
Angelfish *can* use JavaScript tagging, but it doesn’t *have* to. Plus, JavaScript page tags aren’t always an option, especially for distributed content. Angelfish can track visitors with page tags, session ID cookies, usernames, or IP address & user agent combos.
Track Any Website
Angelfish can do a lot more than provide web analytics for your CDN. Angelfish creates detailed usage reports for anything that runs on a web server and creates an access log, like Intranet sites, web-based applications, public websites, SharePoint, financial and/or HR portals, CRMs, and more. See more examples on our Solutions Page.
Process Historical Data
If you have CDN logs from 2 years ago, you can process them in Angelfish. This works in the trial version too – try it!
Track Document Access
Angelfish shows you a list of every opened document (PDF, Excel, Word, etc.) and page on your website. And if the username is available, Angelfish shows you who accessed each document or page.
No Sampled Data
Do you occasionally see “this report is based on X% of visits” in Google Analytics? You won’t see this message in Angelfish. When working with large datasets, Angelfish shows you everything.
