Glassbox vs. Riverbed Aternity

I’ve found that Glassbox is particularly well-suited during marketing campaigns, because you can export and analyze data in real-time, track the campaign’s effectiveness, and gain immediate insight into how customers are interacting with your website. With these insights, we’re able to tweak campaigns on the fly to increase engagement and conversion rates. Similarly, since Glassbox allows us to monitor customer interactions in real-time, we gain immediate feedback on how our users are engaging with a new digital feature on our platform, for example. We can then quickly identify any usability issues or friction points, make adjustments in real-time to improve the user experience, and maximize the success of the new feature.

We are a services organization and we use Riverbed SteelCentral AppInternals with our customers. It has allowed us to expand the footprint in the application management business with virtually all of our major accounts. We were able to expand and go into other applications that we weren't in or offering previously. Now, we have a new value proposition for our customer enhanced visibility, enhanced stability, and we can reduce our cost to them because our cost structure is reduced by using Riverbed SteelCentral AppInternals.

• I like the ease of access that is provided to our internal users
• Super easy integration with our site and other tools
• The ability to navigate to any session, review the details and make actionable notes for resolution
• The ability to exclude sensitive information from being recorded.

• Root cause finding/remediation (it goes beyond analysis).
• Shows latency between applications and servers.
• Identifies long-running SQL queries, and puts the onus back on developers to clean up their SQL code.

• It's a pretty powerful platform, and my sense is that most users don't utilize it to its fullest potential. Glassbox could help by offering a more comprehensive onboarding program (maybe even customized training sessions or live workshops tailored to the needs and use cases of FSIs)

• We found the platform slightly costly for the return. Having tried multiple products this was the best of the lot.
• We did find a few applications where the diagnostic data wasn't overly insightful.

The level of support from the Glassbox team and how much we have improved our conversion just after a few months

Glassbox is very easy to use, and with the AI features which it has inside, it has been very easy for us to not only find the relevant sessions but also summarize them and interact with the summary - so we now have all types of people in our org who use Glassbox - including those who are purely non-tech. Also, I must give a huge shoutout to our customer support team who have been instrumental in helping us get value from Glassbox

The support I give the highest rating because it is really amazing. Every time we triggered the tool support, we were very well served very quickly and efficiently. The problems were solved quickly and without stress. The staff helped us within minutes and had a lot of patience with us

When we were looking into DEM solutions, we considered going with Datadog, but it focuses primarily on technical issues as opposed to capturing and analyzing user experience struggles (for example, why our customers are abandoning our site). This is really what we were looking for, which made Glassbox a perfect fit.

The three tools mentioned above are great too. All deliver and fulfill their functionality well. But we chose Riverbed SteelCentral AppInternals because we received referrals from other friends who work at other major companies around the world and use this solution and have never had any problems. So for reliability we chose this one

• Glassbox has really taken us to the next level in terms of customer sentiment analysis and informed decision-making. We're capturing 100% of customer sessions, and with Glassbox we're able to address hidden issues and make decisions that enhance the experience of our entire customer base, as opposed to just a select few. Our strategic decisions are now based on accurate, comprehensive data, and we're seeing the fruits of this. Our customers are more engaged (and more loyal), our conversion rates are climbing, and our business is growing.
