Website Statistics Tool Comparison

[Muddy]

I searched for a thread on this subject, but to no avail, so I hope I'm not duplicating.

I currently have 15 active sites and I use GoDaddy's Traffic Facts for 2 of them and Google Analytics for the rest. As you know, TF costs money and GA is free. The only advantage I can see to TF is that it reports in real time. Yet I find myself asking, "Is that really much of an advantage?".

What are your thoughts? Is that the only difference between the two, or am I missing something?

I know there are other options as well. In your opinion, how do they all compare? What do you use? What do you recommend and why?

I look forward to benefiting from your collective wisdom and offer much advanced thanks accompanied as always with an inordinate amount of bowing and hat doffing.
