Elevar offers robust features like identity resolution, server-side tracking, and integration with Google Tag Manager, ensuring comprehensive conversion tracking. However, it requires more technical setup. In contrast, Littledata provides a fully automatic, no-code setup that can be completed in under 10 minutes, making it more accessible for non-technical users. Additionally, Littledata includes automatic tracking of checkout steps, enhancing its usability for Shopify brands. Littledata's 30-day free trial and founder-led approach further distinguish it, appealing to those seeking a user-friendly, efficient solution for modern Shopify tracking.

Elevar and Littledata both offer server-side tracking solutions for Shopify Plus brands, but their data destinations differ slightly. Elevar supports a broader range of integrations, including Yotpo Email & SMS and Postscript, which are not available in Littledata's offerings. Littledata focuses on core analytics and marketing platforms, integrating with Segment for enhanced data management. Both solutions cover major platforms like Google Analytics, Meta Ads, TikTok, Pinterest, Klaviyo, and Google Ads, but Elevar provides additional options for email and SMS marketing, making it more comprehensive for brands looking to leverage those channels.

Littledata's purchase tracking offers enhanced features such as user-provided data for improved attribution and custom mapping to a source/medium, which Elevar lacks. Additionally, Littledata's checkout tracking captures all steps server-side, ensuring comprehensive data collection. This contrasts with Elevar's reliance on the thank you page for tracking, which may miss critical interactions. Compared to its own previous version, Littledata's current offering maintains server-side tracking while enhancing data accuracy and flexibility. Overall, Littledata provides a more robust solution for tracking user behavior and purchases, ensuring better insights and attribution for Shopify Plus brands.

Littledata is superior to Elevar for Klaviyo integration because it not only provides GDPR/CCPA opt-out documentation and avoids adding new emails to your marketing list, but also enhances customer identity through cookies from other marketing channels. Additionally, Littledata's ability to backstitch Klaviyo profiles onto previous customer events allows for a more comprehensive view of customer interactions, improving segmentation and targeting. This holistic approach ensures better data accuracy and customer insights compared to Elevar's offerings.
