Can Google Analytics be used for tracking user behavior in a single page web application? I have used Google Analytics for typical websites but haven't used it for these type of web apps.

If not Google Analytics, are there other tools that can be used? I believe some sort of custom tracking will need to be setup for user interactions?

If someone is interested in achieving the same with Piwik read here:
piwik.org/docs/javascript-tracking/#toc-manually-trigger-a-page-view-on-click-or-on-js-event
What you basically have to do is simply triggering a page view manually whenever it is appropriate.

piwikTracker.trackPageView('Current/Path/Or/Any/Name');

Google Analytics can be used with single page applications. You can either use Events to track user behaviour, or you can register "virtual" page views in the same way that real pages get recorded in a multi-page site.
