Flurry Analytics vs. Localytics

I would encourage a colleague to use Flurry Analytics. Incorporating Flurry Analytics in an app is a simple and straightforward task, and will take the average app developer less than 15 minutes to understand and apply. This amount of time is nothing in the grand scheme of the development of the app, and the return on time invested to incorporate it is great. New tracking features can be added at any time.

It is a great product for a smaller team to integrate into their app to start getting some in-depth analytics. The web interface is a great analytics tool without the need for writing SQL. Lack of Unity support makes it a lesser choice for mobile gaming. Like many third-party products, once data needs become substantial, the business will likely outgrow Localytics and will move towards an in-house solution.

• Gives basic tracking capabilities which can help optimize first time experience.
• Lots of high level metrics easily available.
• Benchmarks for many metrics so you can compare yourself within the industry.

• Great web interface which provides a couple of levels of pivoting and filtering of data
• Straight-forward integration for simpler use cases
• Access to raw data through S3 for use in your own data pipeline

Incentivized

• From a programming perspective, there really aren't any improvements that I can think of.
• From the app owner perspective, limits on certain demographics can seem like a hindrance to data collection, but these restrictions are typically imposed by Apple, not by Flurry.

• The biggest thing I would like to see with Localytics is the capability for more correlations. The limited amount of correlations available does restrict the type of analyses that could be done with the data.
• An easier interface to move data into Microsoft Excel would be very useful, rather than creating annoying workarounds.
• More/better automatically scheduled reporting, as well as an Excel plug-in to access the data rather than being restricted to the Localytics interface.

The cost of the product and lack of a competitor that can deliver exactly what we're looking for an app measurement, leads us to be more than likely to renew our use of Flurry. It isn't the most efficient for our particular uses, but the top end app analytic tools out there are far too expensive for us.

There is a lot of competition. I would renew if there isn't anything more exceptional that would justify the re-coding and implementation load costs

It would take several weeks to hear back from the billing team. It took 3 months to resolve an invoice last year. Their technical support is very responsive. I would typically get a response in under 24 hrs.

For my uses, Flurry is free which makes it way more attractive than the other platforms even on a very big number of monthly events. It also have set reports which are exactly the reports that a marketing person needs without any need of spending a developer time to create them for you, or holding an in-house BI person that works on creating reports.

We have not used other products but are going to start exploring making a switch to a new platform.

Incentivized

• Higher engagement ( helped improve first use experience of app)
• Exposed revenue opportunity ( helped establish a link between target demographic Anne their preference for a particular type of EMC PRODUCT)
• Reduced churn rate ( given easy way to set up conversion funnels)

• We have seen an increase in usage by sending targeted push notifications.
• For our purposes we don't need as many features as they offer.
• We have an overall negative ROI from Localytics.
