User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend
Pendo.io is very well suited for organizations, who want to quickly connect with Customers without even directly talking to them. Pendo.io allows in-app guides and documentation to help organizations connect with their customers and guide them in their product. The feature tracking capability is the best to understand the page/feature usage also by segment to categorize and understand user behavior. Replays are somewhat helpful but still can have improvements. Less appropriate where the customer base is less.

The heat maps and conversion funnels are pretty amazing. It’s been a pretty seamless addition to websites and allows me to see what’s going on where, so I know if there needs to be a change in placement of text, buttons, CTAs, et cetera. The funnel tracking and form analytics have also both proven to be fantastic. I’m still somewhat “new” to it, but have been enjoying it thus far

Cons
  • The guide builder UI could be a bit more user-friendly; it's hard to remember where the different options are at first and takes some practice.
  • Interpreting user paths visually can be tricky at times, especially when trying to understand where drop-offs or blockers occur.
  • More granular user permissions so that I don't need to grant full admin rights to a user if I want to let them edit translations on a guide, for example.

  • Overall UI is kind of bit old but easy to navigate
  • While create form I found little difficulty to publish it
  • Should integrate with more email marketing software

We have had an excellent experience with Pendo. When we've had questions or concerns, Pendo is very quick to respond and communicate with us. We have experienced top-notch customer support and customer engagement. We have actually modeled some of our implementation and product processes after Pendo's examples.

Usability
It is intuitive for core tasks like tracking feature usage, building Guides, and viewing dashboards. The interface is clean and well structured, making it easy for product managers and operational teams to get value quickly without heavy technical support. However, there is a noticeable learning curve when setting up advanced custom events, reports, or integrations, which can take some time and internal knowledge-sharing to master.

They've been great anytime that we have needed help with something. They also have some really great help articles. We're able to figure most things out through their articles, but when we've had to call in they've been very helpful and we haven't had any problems. I'd highly recommend working with them.

Pendo.io excels at creating guides. The editor experience is precisely what anyone working with a DAP tool desires – unobstructed and focused on a single screen. Pendo.io boasts AI features, and the customization options exceed expectations. When we became more familiar with the product, we questioned why we hadn't considered it sooner. Pendo.io has simplified analytics, making them as straightforward as bread and butter. The number of widgets available for data representation in the dashboard is astounding. Furthermore, Pendo.io offers a wealth of features, including feature tagging, webpage tagging, Pendo Listen, NPS surveys, a resource center, and more. I used WalkMe for three years and encountered challenges achieving the desired flow for customer onboarding, which sometimes proved difficult. In contrast, Pendo.io makes everything achievable thanks to its ability to incorporate custom code into guide creations.

With Flodesk I experienced delays in the loading time of the popup forms, and there were instances where the forms did not load at all on my website. Additionally, I found the design options for the forms to be somewhat limited.
