Inspectlet vs. SessionCam (discontinued)

I think Inspectlet is a great tool for people who don't want to spend too much time or money integrating a screen session tool. I like how it does captures without you needing to set it up, which is a problem I have encountered with other tools. I think that it can be a great, passive data source for marketing and sales teams.

SessionCam is well suited if a client is using Google Analytics and Google Optimize but wants to understand more qualitatively how users interact on their platforms. Also for an automated way to check user sessions that struggle or abandon.

• Inspectlet does analysis of sessions really well. We were able to view our funnel and view sessions that completed and dropped-off at various points. Setting up the funnel and doing the analysis was very easy.
• I thought Inspectlet was very easy to integrate. During the integration, I was able to send metadata that allowed for increased flexibility during analysis. I loved that Inspectlet integrated with Segment.io.
• I thought the tool's pricing was positioned well for the features it offered.

Incentivized

• We can watch recorded sessions and have the same experience as the user
• I can view sessions related to feedback left by the users using another platform
• It gives a good insight in large scale via heatmaps allowing for immediate recognition of what most users are more interested in
• The technical team is quickly available to answer any questions
• All heatmaps and sessions have a good number of filters to explore

Incentivized

• Be more consistent on recording the sessions
• Create an approved chrome extension that can be used to link session replay ids we gather in our Analytics tool like Adobe to the actual Inspectlet tool
• Lots of times main dashboard doesn't load. Make the tool more bug free.

Incentivized

• A bit slow to load sometimes
• UI looks a bit basic
• Reporting could be deeper

Very good support and super helpful implementation specialists.

Decibel requires in house server and lot more dev hours to implement while Inspectlet [doesn't] need any of that. Once you add Inspectlet to your site, you are just logging in to its site and viewing the session replays. Decibel has its own reporting tool that goes into much more detail and can give you deep insights of the users. Inspectlet, you are mainly just using it for viewing session replays.

We tried out Hotjar before settling on SessionCam. Since the cost was a major factor for us (we were not a big company), we opted for SessionCam after trialing Hotjar. The features were more than adequate, but in the end, it came down to cost. We were happy with our final decision.

• There is no dollar figure to put as an ROI but the value this tool provides is much much more than the investment.
• To be able to know the site from users perspective is the best ROI anyone can expect

Incentivized

• Saved missed orders due to site bugs by allowing us to find the bugs.
• Provides valuable data and feedback for CRO.
