PostHog Reviews & Product Details

It's very simple to use. You can quickly create and share any insights/dashboards you create. It provides great value for product analytics, such as tracking onboarding funnels.

Not really. We need to move from on-prem to cloud, where we think that most of the current bugs we have will be resolved.

Presenting onboarding funnels and understanding how customers move through our product. We're very data-centric and PostHog helps us gather and present that data easily.

The platform never stood in the way of getting to the finish-line. Rather it helped find a flaw in the way i structured my events. Super intuitve!

It was a bit hard to figure out what the power-ups were. But since Good Tape is a sister-company of Zetland, I was able to copy a lot of the setup from there.

Making events easily accessable in an understandable interface.

SESSION RECORDINGS holy moly we use this religiously. It is so incredible to be able to see what our users are doing, immediately following their session.

The sheer amount of features can sometimes be overwhelming.

Using session data to understand where people are dropping off on our website, looking at rage clicks to understand what buttons need assistance, and overall being able to see user experiences have been critical to us as a startup trying to understand Product Market Fit.

Generous free starter tier Session replay

Nothing so far, our dev was a bit confused during onboarding since events didn't appear immediately.

Help us understand the product usage and website traffice

PostHog is easy to install and provides a large number of features, such as heatmaps and session recording, out of the box. Support is responsive and informative. Previously I was paying for heat map and session recording features - but it all comes with PostHog for free.

There are minimal video tutorials, but I understand why - it's hard to keep them updated. Some of the default reports in the dashboard are not hugely intuitive.

PostHog lets me see how my customers are using my software in near real time with the session recording features. I have used this to observe and subsequently fix bugs that customers have been dealing with but not reporting.

Posthog is so easy to use, simple set-up and easy to build dashboards for reporting metrics, great navigation as well

If you have a lot of data feeding into Posthog trying to find something specific can be difficult, but overall no real issues.

We did not want to build our own dashboard to access our app metrics, Posthog was a straight out of the box, Set-up very easy and saved us months of work. I used to pull alot of metrics manually, but PostHog has saved us months of work.

I'm a developer and the implementation was pretty straightforward. The dashboard is clean, friendly, and easy to use

I dislike that there's no way to have different environments. The closest to that is creating projects for each environment, but the navigation between projects is not as easy as I would want because when you have a lot of projects you need to start searching for the one that you need. It would be nice to have a way of grouping projects by some tags or have a favorite section.

Understanding the user's behavior. We also use a lot the feature flags. The ability to create dashboards with important metrics and insights

Ease of doing everything , combined with suite of autogenerated and ready to use insights are what make posthog the best product for me

Honestly, cant find much, maybe more templates

Error debugging

I really like the ability to auto-capture the DOM views - and to get the tracking for users that are on our site. It's easy to know MAUs without any DB querying!

They recently turned oft the ability to self-host. This is a bit frustrating because we used to be able to directly query the data from their datastore. Now we have to export. It's not a big issue.

It's basically solving everything that we would get from FullStory, but it doesn't suck and it's cheap!

It's very intuitive, free for a very reasonable load, and super easy to navigate and set up. I use it for all my businesses and wouldn't recommend anything else.

Maybe adding in a tutorial would be helpful!

Which part of my funnel is making people fall through the cracks and easily optimizing them.

Love the ease of implementation and the session recording capabilities.

Nothing really! The tool works very well and as intended.

Lets us very easily figure out what users are doing in the application and where there may be friction.

How simple it is to integrate and get started, yet the incredible features you get to start using out of the box.

Haven't found anything to dislike. I really like it.

Helps me understand more about my users, test and debug my app. Especially for an early stage start-up, it's really usefuy.

Posthog provides so many useful tools for measuring and testing features and user acquisition behavior - it would have taken ages to build half of what is provided out of the box!

The sheer volume of features available in PostHog can be overwhelming, sometimes making it feel like I'm not using everything as well as I could be. Thankfully their support team is super helpful, and documentation is available for everything they make.

Session replay lets us see where user journeys get confusing or intimidating, and A/B testing lets us experiment with changes to see what will land well with our customers. We use analytics all over the place to track growth, which helps us measure and track our targets.

There are many different types of events to work with. We can create reports with this data easily It's simple to send custom events and create funnels. The user interface is friendly It has all data that I need to know how customer experience is!

I miss a visual editor (like google optimize) for ab tests and experiments. Some platforms (like hubspot and webflow) are easier to apply ab tests using visual editor

We have a small business and Posthog plan help us to start our site with funnels , A/B tests and to know how customer are interacting with our site

One of the standout features of PostHog is its session replay functionality - to visualize and analyze how users interact with your website or application by recording and playing back their sessions. Custom dashboard feature - to track and analyze key metrics and events. Events of user activities - to gain an understanding of user engagement, conversion funnels, and feature adoption.

Nothing comes to mind; PostHog does the job perfectly.

Getting quantitative metrics during building is crucial; PostHog does it perfectly and helps map them to the qualitative metrics that we collect from user interviews and R&D.

event tracking live event tracking. easy to track events

it's very hard to understand The user interface is a bit confusing

tracking events & checking features usage

PostHog has been lifechanging for our small startup. We were struggling with other tools, and now we can finally see exactly which users are engaging with which screens - and how we can keep improving our platform.

So far, no complaints! The only slight bummer is that we can't quite tell the user's identity (e.g. from their email) until they login for the first time. We don't currently force users to logout and log back in, but will be doing a broader launch soon in which they'll have to login again, so that shouldn't be an issue.

Understanding which features users go to most, any screens causing trouble, and getting deep on our power user behaviors.

Tracking events and giving us a better understanding of customers.

Sometimes it is finicky, and sometimes the events don't get logged in.

It mainly solves event tracking.

Recording user sessions, rageclick events (to find the egregious bugs), love that it's easy to integrate into your app.

Not much! I had a really easy time integrating it and it has a lot of features for our small team.

We wanted to be able to follow user sessions in real time. We are a small startup trying to get to PMF so all of our users are valuable and we want to make sure they're having a great experience.
