## The panel's verdict

Mapp Digital Analytics, the analytics module of the Mapp Marketing Cloud from Mapp Digital Germany GmbH of Munich, is strongest where documentation runs deepest: conversions and events score 6-7 for selector-level event tracking, funnel and journey visualisation, and named shop integrations for Shopify, Magento, Shopware and Salesforce Commerce Cloud; implementation scores cluster at 6 for GTM-plugin and npm installation plus first-party tracking on your own domain. Sovereignty is weakest at 3-4: a German contracting entity with a published data processing agreement, ISO 27001 with 27017/27018 and 27701 add-ons and a sub-processor list, yet we found no public information on where analytics data is hosted, the captured pages give different copyright entities, and the group's San Diego head office appears only in independently sourced material. Traffic reporting splits 4 to 6: lower scores found no public information on country, device and browser breakdowns; higher scores credited published counting rules and custom segmentation. Consent and privacy scores 4-5 on a cookieless mode for which we found no public information on how visitors are counted. Pricing starts at "Ab €2.900/Monat (jährliche Abrechnung)".

**Speaks for it:**
- Event tracking documented in standard, link and advanced selector modes, with automatic internal and external link clicks, shadow DOM and Ajax handling.
- Installation documented without editing site source code, via a GTM plugin with no-code configuration, npm packages for Angular and a native Shopify extension.
- A documented Analytics API with its own reference works without logging into the platform, alongside real-time streams on Apache Kafka and SFTP with Mapp Connect.
- A cookieless mode is documented for Pixel v4, Tag Integration and Smart Pixel generations, with an opt-out covering all integration methods including mobile SDKs.
- A data processing agreement, ISO 27001 with the 27017 and 27018 add-ons, ISO 27701 and a sub-processor list are published in the trust centre.

**Held against it:**
- We found no public information on where the analytics data is hosted or where the listed sub-processors are located.
- We found no public information on how visitors are counted in the cookieless mode, on IP truncation or on configurable retention for analytics data.
- We found no public information on referrer, country, device or browser reports, a real-time view or scheduled email reports.
- We found no public information on CSV export of reports, raw-data retention or an import of historical data, so data portability is not verifiable end to end.
- Conversions are documented with a last-click view, and we found no public information on compared attribution models or conversions passed back to ad platforms.

**Best for:**
- You run e-commerce on Shopify, Magento, Shopware or Salesforce Commerce Cloud and need deep, selector-level event tracking with a code generator and shadow DOM support.
- You deploy via Google Tag Manager or npm and want first-party collection on your own tracking domain, for resilience against ad blockers and Safari ITP.
- You pull reporting data into your own stack, through the documented Analytics API that works without logging into the platform and the Apache Kafka-based real-time streams.
- You already standardise on Usercentrics for consent management and want the tracking consent flow integrated.

**Avoid if:**
- You must evidence the full hosting chain for visitor data before procurement — ask the vendor: the public pages we read do not show it
- You need consent-free operation you can sign off without vendor involvement — activating the cookieless mode is advised with your account manager and precludes cross-visiting behaviour analysis.
- You reconcile ad spend through server-to-server conversion feeds — the documented conversion attribution is last click.

## Scores by judge and criterion

Scores out of 5, each judge scoring independently against the published rubric (v1). "n/r" = not rated: the vendor publishes no price, or the judge found no public information on that criterion.

### The judges

- **The E-Commerce Marketing Lead** (v1.0): Runs marketing for a Shopware shop selling outdoor gear in Germany and Austria, with a monthly ad budget split between Google, Meta and two price comparison sites. Since the consent banner went live, a third of the orders no longer show a source. Wants revenue per campaign that matches the shop backend, a checkout funnel that shows where carts are left, conversions sent back to the ad platforms, and numbers that hold without a click on "accept".
- **The Data Protection Officer** (v1.0): External data protection officer for eleven mid-sized companies, three of which still ran Universal Analytics when the Austrian authority ruled on it. Reads the data policy before the feature page: which fields are stored, how a visitor is counted without a cookie, whether the IP address is cut before it is written, who the subprocessors are and where. Signs off a site without a banner only when the vendor states its reading of §25 TDDDG in writing.
- **The Agency Developer** (v1.0): Lead developer at a twelve-person web agency that runs forty client sites on WordPress and TYPO3 and a few Shopify shops. Installs the analytics once per site and answers for it for years. Wants a small script or server-side collection, a plugin per CMS, an own tracking domain so ad blockers do not cut the numbers in half, client accounts with their own logins, and a price that does not jump when one client goes viral.
- **The Growth Analyst** (v1.0): Product and growth analyst at a B2B SaaS in Munich with a marketing site, a web app and a mobile app. Needs signups traced from the first campaign click to the first paid invoice, funnels and cohorts on custom events, and the raw events in the company's warehouse every night. Has moved tracking twice and knows that a tool without a raw export means starting the history again from zero.
- **The Public-Sector Site Owner** (v1.0): Web editor for a district administration whose site serves 400,000 residents, from vehicle registration to daycare places. The state data protection authority publishes guidance on analytics, and the council will not show a cookie banner on a public service. Needs to know which pages people search for and where forms are abandoned, with data that stays in Germany or on the municipal data centre's own servers, and a contract the procurement office can sign.
- **The Skeptic** (v1.0): Has seen "no cookie banner needed" on a tool that fingerprints every visitor, "EU-hosted" on a proxy in front of a US data store, and "unlimited" data history that ends with the subscription. Reads that a product is "GDPR-compliant" and asks which ruling the vendor means, what is stored per visit, whether the history can be exported in a format another tool imports — and what leaving would cost.
