Snowplow Insights
Score 9.5 out of 10
N/A
Snowplow Insights is presented by the vendor, Snowplow in London, as a way to capture and process high-quality behavioral data from all a company's platforms and products and deliver that data to a cloud destination of choice.
I would highly recommend Amplitude to people in the product and business analytics domains who have a need for deep, data-driven insights into customer behavior, accessible in a self-service platform. Amplitude stands out in its comprehensiveness and flexibility; once events are implemented, there are a multitude of options to combine, track, form journeys, and dive deeper into user behavior. Though the barrier for entry is a little bit steep, Amplitude is more friendly to non-technical users than other business insight platforms, without compromising the effectiveness of the analysis tools. Amplitude may not be best suited for web marketing analytics - traffic, page views, etc - since it is more focused on full-platform product analytics.
Snowplow Insights has been by far one of the best programs to better track and store each of the data for events and product expansion, the versatility of this program makes it an immediate and real-time solution for development of each of its users, I recommend it for its price and quality of execution in my work.
It provides me great answers about my critical questionnaire, by which I can easily explore behavioral data across any chart, persona, and cohort that are simple and intuitive to understand as they have made easy segmentation.
It offers its services for SQL queries due to which I have reduced the workload and save the time that was spent in finding out the technical aspects.
Great product Good value for the cost/initiate Support docs and FAQs are great - they limit the necessity of reaching out to in-person support. So when you do call them ... it is for a legit question/issue, no just a "where is it" or a "how to I do xyz123?"
It's a fairly straightforward platform that's beginner friendly. The biggest usability hurdle is most often created by your own team, as it's imperative to know what event sources are being sent to Amplitude and what those event names are. Within being properly onboarded by a team member it can be hard to get started using Amplitude. It takes time to understand what data your company may be sending to the product, the naming conventions of events (especially if there are old or deprecated events names
Alway up and running, or if there is a problem we can get back in the game right away. The reliability was a big selling point for me, and it was true when this company got it. Rollouts can be tough, but this was pretty seamless. Good support throughout the process, good documentation to handle questions/tips
No issues, problems, or negative remarks from us!! We had a plan, vendor support was rock solid, our data folks have experience, OCM supported as needed, and we got the rollout done on time, on budget, and with only minor hiccups. SInce the rollout, most of us have already forgotten the hiccups and generally speak highly of the product
I haven't used the Amplitude support other than their training docs so I can't speak too much to the in-person support but the docs are serviceable. Nothing too crazy but between the user tips, email notifications, and the decent number of docs I was able to get the support I needed to ramp up on the tool.
Virtual Not bad considering the timeframe and turnaround. The biggest benefit was for my end-users to hear a voice (other than mine/ours! LOL) telling them about the new features and capabilities. The in-person training was really good for having an expert that knows the answers and could refer to past experiences, problems, solutions. THey were a great resource to ease the transition ... basically a "you are gonna be okay with this change ... you got this etc.!" kinda vibe
Good enough to get strong baseline. I always make sure our our users go to and/or focus on the vebndor-provided support docs rather than any formal training. Our instructors come and go, but written policy and how-to docs live much longer in a corporate setting. That said, the online training is sufficient. I like that the training curric is stacked and progressive.
My team members all have background as data analysts, so Amp was pretty easy to for them. There was sufficient online training available. We also used the available support documents. The actual rollout went well. We did significant testing beforehand. We did a phased rollout, with partial silent rollout (part of OCM's plan) for the smallest line of business. THe silent one was "silent" b/c it was done without fanfare or public notices ... it was just a "we're doing some things, it wont impact your work or workday
Amplitude Analytics is a robust platform that can take your data reporting beyond what's currently capable in GA. Heap is a great intermediate tool, that takes data analysis a step further and is an excellent product in it's own right. Mixpanel is the most comparable both have very similar reporting/dashboarding functionality. Amplitude can often be preferred by product and data engineering teams for it's ease of setup and impressive analytics displays.
The main advantage of Snowplow Insights, compared to other similar tools in the market, is that Snowplow is able to combine data from more data sources and also enrich that data later on by connecting to other systems in real time. Those capabilities have been a challenge for many other tools in the past. Additionally, the number of out-of-the-box integrations makes Snowplow a very flexible tool.
Like all the other grades, it was mostly an easy implementation ... we have experience people, the rollout in general is well planned, and the vendor was very supportive
The main scenario that we live with this program is the response and the good reputation that we have built with this program in each of our events.
There are many occasions where we have the obligation to protect all our data, the advantage is that Snowplow Insights has a completely ample storage for our performance.
