Heyyy Statsig

IncentivizedUse Cases and Deployment Scope
I am a Product Manager and we use Statsig to test the effectiveness of new feature releases. We are mainly concerned with user success in properly evaluating the product while onboarding
Pros
- Makes setting up experiments easy
- Really responsive support
- Advanced experimental config for detailed statistical analysis
- Post experiment analysis tools
Cons
- There is no way to test two different user segments in the same experiment
- Adding metadata to events is non-intuitive, the available metadata isn't shown in the UI while you are in the configuration flow
- I'm not sure the recent sidebar reorganization is better than the previous version
- Since we primarily use experiments as gates, with just a boolean parameter, it wasn't obvious that there is a default parameter output when calling the API to register an exposure. Maybe the default parameter object should be a mandatory function argument
Likelihood to Recommend
Statsig is well suited for running straightforward a/b tests on frontend deployments. We've actually used it to log events on our backend and used the HTTP API to integrate with tools like Hubspot to evaluate email campaigns
