aheadMetrics: Evolving from Beta to Stable with Subscription Plans and Free Trial

You know how crucial real-time sales statistics can be to an e-commerce site. Especially during the holiday season, when consumer spending reaches the highest point of the year.

But this blog post will not focus on how to maximize your sales. We’re going to focus on sales analytics provided by aheadMetrics reporting service and its exit from beta. So, if you are not using it, it’s high time to try!

Artyom Rabzonov, aheadMetrics coordinator, describes the service this way: “Our service is tailored to measure very specific parameters (sales, customers and orders) in contrast to other instruments aimed to track all metrics together. …All data is updated in real-time meaning there is no 24-hour delay when a vendor has to wait for the actual statistics.”

From Beta to Stable



After lots of work from the team, we’re thrilled to introduce a stable version of aheadMetrics. Since April, 2013 we’ve been chipping away at bugs and increasing performance bar. The aheadMetrics subscription service is 5 times faster since our very first release.

We're also announcing subscription plans, and a few features that we think will appeal to aheadMetrics users including subscription plans, the ability to display charts in Magento backend, and a revamped reports panel.


Plans and Pricing




  • Choose a Subscription Plan



We’ve developed four paid subscription plans and one free of charge. The only limitation of the plans is the number of orders imported into aheadMetrics from your store. Each subscription plan goes with a month of free access to the service. At the end of the trial period, you need to choose a paid subscription plan charged on monthly basis.

Each plan includes:

  • Access to all reports

  • Magento dashboard

  • Lifetime sales

  • Customers history

  • Try for Free, Pay Later



Not sure what subscription plan to choose? Each plan entitles you to a free 30-day trial period. We don’t limit you with the number of orders, imported into the service.

Each plan entitles you to a free 30-day trial period with unlimited number of imported orders.


You have a full month to explore all report types and at the end of the trial period decide which plan suits your business more.
