Announcing Long Term Support in Piwik 2 – The analytics platform for your mission critical projects
We are proud to announce our Long Term Support (LTS) for Piwik 2.X!
Why Long Term Support (LTS)?
Part of our mission is to ready Piwik for the enterprise — and ready the enterprise for Piwik. Our fast release cycle and our ability to quickly innovate has served us well for the past seven years and has lead Piwik to being one of the most popular open source projects, used by over one million websites worldwide. But Piwik’s success today has also shown us that this fast release cycle is not suited for all users and customers. Like most large open source projects (such as Ubuntu, Firefox, Debian, Symfony, Node.js, etc.) at Piwik we now also offer a Long Term Support release which gives users the confidence that Piwik can be used for mission critical projects for months to come.
What does LTS mean for Piwik?
For the duration of the LTS period, Piwik 2.X will continue to receive the following fixes:
- Critical bugs causing data loss or data corruption.
- Major and Critical security issues.
Our goal is to offer you a Piwik LTS release that you can trust for all your mission critical projects.
How long will Piwik 2.X be supported?
Piwik 2.X will be supported for at least 12 months after the initial release of Piwik 3.0.0.
Piwik 3.0.0 is expected to be released in the second half of 2016.
This means that Piwik 2.X will be supported at least until the second half of 2017.Which Piwik version is LTS?
The latest Piwik 2.16.X release is our Long Term Support version.
How do I benefit from the LTS version?
To get the full benefits of Piwik LTS, please make sure you are using the latest LTS version. First, update to the latest Piwik 2.X version, then Configure Piwik to use the LTS release channel and then update to the latest LTS version.
How do I configure Piwik to use the LTS version?
By default, Piwik will not use the LTS version. When you use the one-click update your Piwik instance will be updated to the very latest release: when Piwik 3.0.0 will be released, the one click update will update your instance to 3.0.0. It is however possible to configure your Piwik so that you will stay on Piwik 2.X and keep using the LTS Long Term Support version:
- Login Piwik as the Super User,
- Go to Settings > General > Update settings,
- Under “Release channel” click “Latest stable 2.X Long Term Support version”, and click “Save”.
How do I get professional Piwik Support?
If you need professional support for your Piwik service get in touch with the Piwik experts.

Analytics for the Internet of Things : collecting all your things’ data with Piwik to stay in control ?
25 novembre 2015, par Matthieu Aubry — AboutAt Piwik our mission is to create the leading free and open source analytics platform, and supporting global organisations and communities to keep full control over their data.
Our broad mission started 8 years ago and we focused at first helping people to liberate their website analytics data, then liberate their mobile app analytics data. But it is clear that there is much more than Web + Mobile: data is everywhere and a lot more data is being generated by software, people and their activities, robots, sensors…
I’d like to share an interesting article which highlights one of the growing trends of technology: the rise of the Internet Of Things: 6 Ways Analytics And The Internet Of Things Will Transform Business.
Here is an extract:
The tech industry is no stranger to change, but the data derived from the IoT is taking disruption to a new level.
At IBM’s Insight conference last month, Bob Picciano, senior vice president of IBM Analytics, talked about the rise of the “cognitive business”, or an enterprise that engages with analytics to improve its customer relations, business processes, and decision-making capabilities.
There are dueling predictions over how ubiquitous the Internet of Things will be, but most indicate that the marketplace will host between 50 and 75 billion connected objects by 2020, signaling novel challenges for hardware manufacturing and development. Software engineers, likewise, may need to completely revamp programs to better exploit the influx of data, while innovators need to wrestle with the changes wrought by analytics.
IBM’s Insight event unfolded in light of this wave of disruption. The lineup of corporate presenters converged on the same message: Analytics is for everyone, and your viability in the marketplace depends on it.
[…]
IBM’s Insight 2015 conference sounded off on the most important trends in data usage and management. It also served a wake-up call for developers, engineers, and tech leaders. As the Internet of Things alters the landscape of analytics, hardware design needs to change, software development requires novel approaches, and tech management must become more agile in order to realize data’s greatest benefits.
So far there are 1 million websites using Piwik… but what if there could be 10 or 50 million things (sensors, devices) being measured by Piwik?
Together we will be creating the best open source and generic analytics platform, that is engineered to last, and designed to help humanity keep control and gain Freedom.
We aim for Piwik to be the ideal platform to measure the Internet Of Things.
We’re still at the beginning of this journey and it will take the best of all of us to get there.
See you on the way!
PS: if you’d like to get involved with Piwik, we would be glad to welcome you!
