If you are thinking about switching platforms from Nifty Stats to StatsDrone then this article is for you.

There are a lot of reasons to switch from Nifty Stats to StatsDrone, they are;

  • StatsDrone has a freemium plan up to 30 affiliate programs

  • StatsDrone is more accurate than Nifty Stats

  • StatsDrone has account balances, Nifty Stats does not

  • StatsDrone has has amazing customer support with a larger team

  • StatsDrone is available on your phone with any browser

  • StatsDrone has seats to allow other team members to access data

  • StatsDrone has deeper data analysis covering account, brands, campaigns, dynamic variables and even postback

If you have less than 30 affiliate programs, you could connect them one at a time without as much effort taking a few minutes per program.

Exporting Nifty Stats data with MySQL plugin

Nifty Stats offers a plugin to export your data but you must get it by contacting customer support and the plugin also costs an additional $39.90 USD per month.

If you pay for the plugin, you can export your data once into a MySQL database before removing your subscription and closing your account. Basically this is like the Nifty Stats API but really only one control is through MySQL and not the freedom to connect in other databases.

Bulk uploading your accounts to StatsDrone

We recommend you consider connecting your programs with API over credentials (username and password).

Unfortunately, Nifty Stats doesn't seem to have a proper export button however if you use any password managers like Roboforms, Lastpass or KeepassX then you could potentially export these easier.

StatsDrone bulk program import

In the StatsDrone app settings, you can select the 'Bulk-connect from CSV' and here you'll get another page where you can upload your credentials of all your affiliate programs or by all the APIs if you have your API keys ready to go.

If you need help with onboarding for 100 or more affiliate programs, contact us or book a meeting with us and we'll be happy to help.
