Smartlook vs. VisitorTrack

Smartlook is best for screen recordings. Especially when you are running MVPs. However, its pricing is very high. If your daily visitors are too much then either you will have to lose many of your recordings or you will have to pay too much money.

For any entity that cares about efficiency and accuracy for marketing, VisitorTrack is a low-cost solution that can easily narrow down your sales funnel by channeling sales efforts into more serious prospects who visited your site after a campaign.

• Funnels are both easy to configure yet comprehensive enough to detect complicated customer journeys.
• Real-time recording provides exceptional insights to our design & engineering teams.
• Session recording is surprisingly lightweight and seems to cause no substantial performance degradation for our customers.

• Events -- but I think this is something that we could improve ourselves in our system.
• Create some suggestions for funnels and heatmaps.
• Give general insights for a certain period of time, e.g. from Oct. 7th to 12th, 75 users left the checkout step and 60% of them left due to a payment issue. IDK just bringing some ideas!
• Send an e-mail with main insights.

• Only complaint is having to log in on every visit as opposed to being recognized when I visit, but it is a minor issue

As my ratings show, I have been absolutely delighted with Smartlook in terms of usability, cost, support, and its benefit to our organization. I have given it such high ratings because I think it has really benefitted our organization and I think it could do the same for other companies too.

Smartlook is very intuitive and simple for an average programmer (I don't know if it will be as simple for a normal user). We have never had to resort to looking for information on the web or ask for help for something we didn't understand or didn't work as expected.

I am always very happy when a company offers the option to use online chat, as I do not like to call customer support and writing an email is just too slow and cumbersome. I did not even expect a reply right away, yet it took the customer support team less than a minute to respond to my problem.

VisitorTrack support is outstanding and personalized. I have always gotten prompt answers, directly from their staff without any language barriers, which I typically have to deal with from other vendors who outsource overseas.

Like I mentioned, Smartlook is younger than FullStory and it seems like they're trying to improve. The dashboards are lacking. I wish I had more control over what I see there instead of the standard. We use the API to determine customer name and company and I'd like to see some custom dashboards.

We use Google Analytics to get site statistics and page flows, but detail is insufficient and you certainly won't get contact records from Google. At the end of our first year with VisitorTrack, we evaluated VisiStat in a side-by-side bakeoff. VisiStat can get very expensive quickly if you need to procure contact records for your site visitors. Based on our consumption of contact data from VisitorTrack, I estimated we'd pay twice as much or more for VisiStat... and we liked VisitorTrack's reporting capability better, and VisitorTrack offered us a renewal discount, so staying with VisitorTrack was really a no brainer.

• We have increased the conversion rate from the beginning till now with 120%.
• We redesigned our landing pages and decreased the bounce rate by 41%.
• We rethinked and redesigned our menu structure and internal site linking to increase the time users spent on our site based on the data we got from Smartlook analysis.

• In our case, we make our money back every month and more.
• But don't misunderstand me, not all of our marketing lists generated from folks who stop by have been successful. Nobody can do that.
