What are the best Stape alternatives for server-side tracking?

stape alternatives comparison taggrs tracklution transmute engine

Quick Answer

Main alternatives: TAGGRS (similar GTM hosting, from $22/mo), Tracklution (plug-and-play, no GTM, from EUR39/mo), Addingwell (managed GTM servers), and Transmute Engine (WordPress-native, no GTM, direct BigQuery, from $89/mo). Choice depends on whether you want to stay in GTM ecosystem or escape it entirely.

Full Answer

Stape alternatives fall into two categories: GTM-based hosting (TAGGRS, Addingwell, Tag Concierge) where you still configure GTM yourself, and GTM-free solutions (Tracklution, Transmute Engine) that handle everything. TAGGRS is nearly identical to Stape. Tracklution offers plug-and-play but lacks direct BigQuery. Transmute Engine is WordPress-native with direct BigQuery routing. The real question is whether you want easier GTM hosting or want to eliminate GTM entirely.
