Hello Soylentils. I work in the IT Department of a mid sized utility company. Our engineering department requested that we use Google Analytics to track how people are hitting certain pages, from where, and whether or not they are getting to pages from links on our website or directly. A co worker found that Google Analytics can get expensive. Does anyone have any experience with any FOSS alternatives such as the ones listed in the article below?

No one ever got fired for using GA.
Chances are even if the typically-overworked IT denizens could create something similar from scratch, it will be different from the tools that management already knows and is comfortable with.

Well, they should. This privacy-invading nonsense that involves third parties like Google, Facebook, etc. should be heavily discouraged. But most web 'developers' are utterly and completely incompetent.
