Analytics for product managers

Product analytics tools like Mixpanel or Amplitude are built for in-app behavior — funnels, retention, feature adoption. They're the wrong tool for the marketing site, docs, and pricing page, which is exactly where Orbit fits: a simple, shareable view of who's visiting before they ever sign up.

What makes analytics hard for product managers

  • The in-app product analytics tool has nothing to say about the marketing site, docs, or pricing page.
  • Getting a quick read on landing page or pricing page traffic means filing a request with a data analyst.
  • Stakeholders — execs, sales — ask for traffic numbers and don't need or want a seat in the main analytics stack.
  • Docs pages get ignored in the product analytics tool because instrumenting them there is overkill.

Where Orbit fits

  • Boards for marketing site, docs, and pricingCombine the marketing site, docs, and pricing page into one Board to see how they perform together, without three separate report exports.
  • Public share links for stakeholdersGive execs or sales a live link to check numbers themselves, instead of adding them as seats in the main product analytics tool.
  • Owner / manager / view-only rolesGive stakeholders view-only access to traffic data without letting them touch site settings or other integrations.
  • Single-screen dashboardA fast, readable view of pageviews and referrers that doesn't require the same ramp-up as a full product analytics report builder.

Frequently asked questions

Should Orbit replace our product analytics tool, like Mixpanel or Amplitude?

No — those track in-app behavior, funnels, and retention. Orbit tracks the marketing site, docs, and pricing page traffic that those tools generally don't cover well.

Can I track the docs site separately from the marketing site?

Yes — add Orbit to each site individually, then use a Board to view them together or apart, whichever is more useful for a given report.

Can I give a stakeholder read-only access without a full seat in our analytics stack?

Yes — invite them as a view-only team member on the specific site, or send a public share link that requires no login at all.

Does Orbit track feature usage inside the product?

No — Orbit is website analytics only. It doesn't track in-app events, feature flags, or usage inside a logged-in product.
