Unlike many of our competitors in the analytics world that limit how you can capture and store your data, Piwik does not believe in these limits. The only limit for you will be your server/hard disk space.
Table Truncation
For performance reasons, Piwik will by default only archive the first 1,000 rows. You can easily edit the config file to enjoy non truncated reports and see 100% of your data. To do so read How can I force Piwik to not limit the data?
Custom Variables
You can track up to 5 custom variables per visit and/or up to 5 custom variables per page view. Read more on custom variables here.
Custom Variables Length
The limit is 200 characters (length of custom variable names & values).
Goals per website
There is no limit to the number of goals you can track.
Ecommerce Transactions Per Day
There is no limit to the number of transactions you can record in a day.
Email Reports
There is no limit to number of scheduled reports
Number of pageviews per month
There is no limit. With a good server, 100,000 pageviews a day should be no issue. Some users track more than 10 Million pages per month with dedicated servers. Learn how you too can optimize your install.
Number of Websites Tracked

Data Storage and Data Collection Limits
There is no limit. You did not read this wrong. You can keep all your data forever. By default, all historical visitor data, and all reports are kept. You can choose to anonymize the data or purge the old log or report data after a few months. It’s your decision as it is your data.
Also, we have added a new feature to make data storage management easier, by allowing you to easily delete older logs and reports. This is especially useful if you are using Shared Hosting, or have limited Database space.
