I can get in-depth reports and get our VIP customer data too.
I can only put one breakdown at a time in my report, that was a setback.
Our solving cohort data storage issue.
SDKs are easy to use, the UI is pleasant looking and easy to use. Love the free start plan, makes it a great fit for personal projects.
I wish the app had a dark mode, other than that no real complaints from the offerings that I have used.
I'm using Posthog on personal projects, and it's a great fit for feature flagging + event tracking. I won't likely pay for it personally (small scale) but would absolutely recommend to an organization I work for.
Ease of use. I can set up easily and start capturing events.
It sometimes feels like auto capture feature captures too much. I understand the inner workings of it, but having to extract useful info from it becomes cumbersome.
Real-time event notification for my startup.
That I can retroactively track user clicks/page views
I find it a little confusing to navigate
Unsure how many users are selecting and clicking elements, posthog helps us with knowing Users behaviors
Posthog has transformed the way we do product analytics. We cannot believe how well it has allowed us to replace several other tools in order to basically decimate our analytics saas spend. Love the recordings, especially the way we can retrieve the users console - in a small team where the devs are the product people this is priceless.
What we would really love to see is the ability to do progressive rollouts of features, with the % on a feature flag increasing automatically over time.
Allowing us to spend so much less on analytics suites is amazing, as well as the opportunity to see what our users have in their consoles. It is so simple to use that everyone in the business can use it without having to be shown how to.
Differentiation of Data which can be used for proper analysis of Data. Easy to add parameters. Funnels, Retention, and Trends page to view data. I have been using other tools too.
It is a bit laggy sometimes. It should be improved. It can be easier to segregate Data with small changes in the User Interface. Data collection from the site also can be easier.
Data segregation, analysis, journey breaks, gaps in work, and many more. We use the data to create solutions for everything. I also use it to review the heatmap of our website.
Analytics and video recording segmented by accounts and users.
Recording buffering can be slow at times. I'm sure given the speed of their development they'll fix this soon.
Analyzing product usage through data and recordings. It's removing the mystery behind adoption.
Open source and free! Creating insights is super quick and easy.
No offical Rust library. But the HTTP API is simple enough to use instead.
PostHog allows me to store analytics data in confidence while getting great insights for free.
Dashboards creation is super quick. I can also make more of them in a seconds and adjust for my purposes. In-app posthog bar is very helpful and helps to create a range of UX pathes, then compare them.
In-app bar doesn't work sometime and I can not figure out why that happens. Personally, I didn't figure out how to turn off some of the events in auto scrapper and at least rename some events to understand which of "ok" buttons were pressed.
Rapidly creating web analysis and dashboards. Play with metrics and adding custome ones based on the regular metrics like DAU MAU and etc. It is open source and we can ignore sanctions against Russia.
