Powerful, easy to use tool

  • December 13, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The reporting interface is clean and simple, but hides a massive amount of power. The Users section is particularly great.
What do you dislike about the product?
Because of the way our CSS and front-end JS is structured, we've had to make significant changes to our front end in order to realize the most value.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have anecdotal usage, but no real numbers or trends. Heap is helping us solve that.

What do you like best about the product?
Seems like a really powerful tool where we can get data from individual user actions. I like the dashboard and layout; setting up some standard reports allow us to quickly look at key performance measures.
What do you dislike about the product?
It didn't take long for my guys to set up high level reports, but know one really wanted to tackle in depth stuff like user residence time and individual data collection. I also would like to run reports on sub domains but unsure if thats possible. I think with any "new" product (maybe just new to us), the software has power tools but not many power users?
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My business is centered around providing interactive experiences through games; I need to demonstrate that my users are in the app for prolonged periods of time.

Best and most user friendly analytics suite

  • December 13, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I especially like visualizer and the funnel feature. Helps me breakdown the conversion of each stage of the funnel and see which channels have the highest conversion.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the list view of users can be improved
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Trying to increase conversion and decrease the bounce rate and since starting using Heap at the beginning of this year, conversion is up by 23% while the bounce rate is down by 18%
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Heap is easy to deploy ,even easier to setup and has a very low learning curve. The reporting interface is great has some really great user experience and is very customization. Switch to heap if you plan to have non-technical staff doing data analytics and pulling reports from your analytics software.

Great for marketing funnel analytics

  • December 13, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I was about to deploy another event-based analytics app when a coworker told me to check out Heap. I set it up quickly and was really surprised at the depth available, and loved the ability to reconfigure events or create them later and still have them populated with historical data. It's now core to how we manage our team and campaigns.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing significant. Their support team is usually very responsive, and they have consistently rolled out new features and made them available to us over our six months of usage.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We primarily use it for marketing analytics through the funnel and into product usage.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
They have a generous free tier, so try out a basic implementation and see it for yourself.

Great web analytics!

What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to view funnels, and chain of events, or use a chain of events as a single "event" to track...the snapshot feature is also awesome! Also the user data - the path the users take is awesome!
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish we could get more built in data such as screen resolution.

I would really like to be able to select a starting event and heap brings up the most common chain of events afterwards that users do - for example "All users that click register" what is the most popular actions they do after, and after that etc. As well as see "All users who didn't retain" what was their chain of actions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
User retention and engagement.

Such clear product engagement and marketing conversion insight

  • December 12, 2016

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to pull funnel reports in 60 seconds. Before Heap, we were using Google Analytics and creating custom reports. I like how intuitive Heap is; now, without having to rely on someone more tech-savvy to go in and set up a custom report, as I had to do with google analytics, I can go in myself and create reports without a problem.

In today's day and age when marketing teams are pressured more and more to prove ROI with each and every campaign, tools like Heap are invaluable. The fact that they're easy to use makes our entire team hands on with pulling reports for different tracks within marketing: content, events, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
Easily sharing reports within your team. I wish there was an email share or send to slack integration. It'd also be cool to have a knowledge base or free events where Heap experts on teams like ours (marketing) walk through tips and tricks for setting up reports to prove ROI.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Proving that blog content ties to revenue through trial to paid conversions.
Also investigating product usage to optimize new user onboarding experiences as well as to reduce churn.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Put in the effort up front to get yourself familiar with the tabs and user properties, because this is a tool you're find yourself using multiple times a day, every day.

Actionable insights

  • December 12, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I can see exactly what someone did on our site, and what brought them in, how long they stayed, and more.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not good with attribution. No centralized dashboard.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Get people to convert once they get to our website -- see what content engages them the most. now I know what pieces to optimize.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you wanted a centralized dashboard, they don't have this. But you can get nitty gritty with individuals users.

Easy and intuitive query build for detail view and rollup view on events that are related to web, app, visitor and medium channels.

The Reports and Dashboards are subpar on the reports and is very cumbersome to export the data/reports effeciently
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Conversion optimization, product and features testing, user engagement and retention

Nice backend, fiddly setup

  • December 12, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The backend of the product is quite nice. The list view allowing us to drill down and see both custom and raw events per user is very cool.
What do you dislike about the product?
We setup heap, mixpanel, calq, google analytics and sentry to trial various metrics/reporting. They all have similar API/SDK calls but heap ended up being the hardest to integrate by far due to its unnecessarily opinionated JS snippet making it incompatible with tools like the Google Closure compiler in clojurescript.

Every other reporting tool supported setting their lib as a dependency in :foreign-libs but because of the very exact way the user ID and order of loading/calling functions in the heap snippet, this was not possible.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Early stage startup looking for metrics to help develop product and grow customer base. We setup pirate metrics, but haven't been using the product long enough to get much benefit.

Great tool for Product Managers @ startups

  • December 12, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to setup events. The UI is so easy and intuitive (just click on why you want to track and name it). As a PM, it's been a great tool for me to see how our users are interacting with our web app and to make product decisions based on that.

I also love that everything is tracked regardless of whether you've defined an event for it. This means that any even that ou do create, all the data is retroactively added since Heap tracks it all anyway.

It's great for growing startups because it's very affordable as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve to maximize the benefit of all the data that you're collecting is pretty stew. I'm still learning how to define the segments and run reports off of them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Figuring out how our users are using our web app. The identify API is a plus to uniquely ID who's using the software.
