Fullstory vs. Piwik PRO

It was extremely useful in identifying places in our product where things weren't functioning, or where it looked like action was available to the end user but in reality, it was not and therefore caused lots of confusion. It doesn't help as much in other scenarios to see what catches a user's Eye or where they go if they leave our application as well as an actual in-person interview would help with eye-tracking software.

Actually, it is a platform that I would recommend to analyze all the data and information. It allows us to optimize the entire journey of our clients. It is a flexible tool and has excellent data security, through Piwik we can keep track of all our commercial objectives, create reports and analyze all campaigns.

• Tracks users' online experiences from start to finish.
• Makes it easy to share a customer's experiences with the rest of my team.
• Allows me to use different methods to find evidence of a customer's experience.
• Shows page insights via segmentation that help me know where to improve my site.
• Tracks error clicks and dead clicks for quick insights into site improvements.
• Integrates with HelpScout for easy access to customer problem-solving.

• Being the owner of your own analytics data
• Tracking on session levels including personal data (with consent)
• Raw data export of the analytics data

• Can be a little confusing to know the exact time something happened, in local time or customer time? That's helpful for engineering to look into log files.
• When looking for a specific session, it would be nice if you have a easier list of sessions with a little more info to choose from
• It would be nice to be able to save flagged sessions and annotations under my profile to reference later

• Filtering: ip ranges, hostnames, regex. These are a few things that aren't possible like we are used to.
• Tag Manager: not all tags/triggers are possible yet to what we are used to.
• Are more progressive payment model: more little steps to buy a plan.
• Custom dimensions: they weren't available but are now. But they aren't that user friendly yet as I'm used to.

The metrics are hard to understand at times and inaccurate to the point of being unusable. I stopped pulling them and solely rely on Adobe Analytics for them. So far, I've only used FS to watch sessions and determine behaviors

Because everything seems to be easy to find and it doesn't take long at all to learn how to use the product

We've never had issues with availability

It seems the performance is really good and always loads quickly

Yes, that is correct. FullStory has a dedicated support team that is available to assist with any issues or questions. The team is known for being responsive, knowledgeable, and helpful, and they are committed to ensuring that users get the most out of the FullStory platform. They helped us a lot to implement it with our web app

We had to contact the support several times in the beginning and they really took their time to explain the different functions in detail. So in terms of support I can definitely recommend Piwik PRO.

I was not involved in the initial implementation, but I have found it easy to pick up and use without any guidance, so it's very user-friendly, intuitive, and not difficult to get a sense of use, though it may be more difficult to master (I am not a Fullstory master... yet!).

Fullstory is really the best at session recording. They are adding new and more features to become more competitive with other web analytics tools (like Pendo, Heap, and GA). But we ultimately keep them because they make it so easy to actually see how people interact with your site. It is one thing to see a report that says customers fall off a page, it is another thing to actually be able to watch what they do as they fall off.

I can sum it up quite easy: - GA isn't that privacy friendly, something we do require on our jobboard. - Matomo is a great program with some unique features compared to Piwik, but the lay-out is - in my eyes - more cluttered. Also the different type of database makes it a bit slower Besides these two I've also checked Plausible Analytics, which is a nice package but a bit to much bare bone for us right now. Especially on the part of custom dimensions

Full story was easy to scale with the growth of our teams and organisation

Incentivized

• We reduced our payment error rate by 20% using FullStory.
• Our product design team is able to get initial designs approved 95% of the time using FullStory data in order to explain to our stakeholders the reasoning behind decisions. We also do a before-and-after analysis, and we either net out the same with the new designs (just improved visuals) or improve the metric of whatever was designed. More often than not, we improve the metric.
• We decreased the time to A/B testing insights by 50%.
• We can usually visualize a production issue via FullStory within 10 minutes.

Incentivized

• Piwik Pro comes pre-loaded with industry-leading capabilities and features.
• Piwik Pro has an easy-to-use interface because of its simple design.
• Piwik Pro reports are incredibly customizable, easy to use, and worthwhile.
