    + I strongly believe that this tool helps when a firm has good user count (depends on business model) as most of these tools are data friends. More data - more valuable insights + Best fit if someone who is looking for deeper insights of individual page - Not suggested for very fewer visits of a website. Suggested to improve better visit count

    PlaybookUX is fabulous for ad-hoc tests with small budgets, but can also scale up to larger projects easily. I've recommended the tool to several people and they love it, too!

    Pros
    Crazy Egg
    • Provides heatmaps that shows you the elements on your site that are and aren't performing well.
    • Provides scrollmaps so you can see how far down a page users are scrolling and which content never gets seen.
    • Screenshots show you how your website looks across a variety of different devices.
    • Provides a type of clickmap called confetti that enables you visualise clicks by segments - device, new/returning visitors, campaigns and other metrics.

    Cons
    Crazy Egg
    • The largest thing we've struggled with is the Optimizely integration. I've contacted customer service a few times to get it properly setup. Customer Service is always friendly and helpful; they provide clear steps to get it setup. Unfortunately despite clear instructions, they are tedious, and if not completed in the correct order, the integration with Optimizely does not work. My success rate with the integration is less than 55%.

    • With other testing platforms, I can update my profile, but I'm not sure how to do it with PlaybookUX.
    • It would be nice to have a login location where I can see my available tests.

    It's a great tool considering how inexpensive it is. If used correctly and you have a plan for tracking your websites, this tool can make a world of a difference. If you are not going to sit down and take the time to make a plan for how to use this tool, I would say it is not worth your time. Yes, you can look at items on your website that need to be changed, but without a consistent plan, other important items that need changing can be lost in the mix. Make sure you have enough time and energy to invest in this and it will be well worth it

    Usability
    Crazy Egg
    It's not clear what features there are. The navigation icon is not labeled. It's hard to know where to start when you're first logging in as a first-time user. It's hard to know how to set up anything and there aren't many helpful tutorials in-product. I don't want to be kicked out of a help center or read the documentation.

    Setting up a study only takes 5 mins. and you can preview a study before sending it out so you don't make any mistakes.

    Reliability and Availability
    Crazy Egg
    It's slow to post data, and slow to get a snapshot to finally be active (i.e. not pending). Not intolerable, but would be nice to see data within a couple hours. Often have to wait to the next day.

    Support Rating
    Crazy Egg
    I think support is an area where Crazy Egg is lacking. I would love to have a quarterly check-in with a Crazy Egg rep to understand what kinds of changes have been made to the platform and what is on the horizon. I also think a quick consulting sessions with a rep could be extremely beneficial, as I'm sure there are ways to use the tool that we haven't even thought about yet that would be extremely insightful for our team.

    It is simple. JavaScript code needs to be added to any pages where you want to run tests. That's it.

    Hotjar is more expensive than Crazy Eggs, and we needed a tool to fit the budget for small comp. With more time, we could have tested it deeply also to have a better opinion, it seems to be great too

    Scalability
    Crazy Egg
    Its reliability (not scaleability, as the question asks for, sorry) is pretty good but through our testing we know that some clicks do not get recorded. It doesn't bother us a lot because we look at the aggregate of thousands of visits, but we do know it misses things. As for scaleability, it's about right. You really don't want zillions of clicks per snapshot - the screen just turns to 100% dots and you lose the ability to differentiate different screen areas. We find that 25,000 clicks for a page gives us a really good view.

    Return on Investment
    Crazy Egg
    • Very Positive impact on ROI as it pointed towards some specific flaws of the website. These flaws were removed on a regular basis.
    • It constantly helps finetune our website to the requirements of the users. This helps in boosting our business development efforts.
    • It helps us to remove or modify the least visited sections of the website. Thus removing the limitations that hamper our growth.
