Likelihood to Recommend I would highly recommend Amplitude to people in the product and business analytics domains who have a need for deep, data-driven insights into customer behavior, accessible in a self-service platform. Amplitude stands out in its comprehensiveness and flexibility; once events are implemented, there are a multitude of options to combine, track, form journeys, and dive deeper into user behavior. Though the barrier for entry is a little bit steep, Amplitude is more friendly to non-technical users than other business insight platforms, without compromising the effectiveness of the analysis tools. Amplitude may not be best suited for web marketing analytics - traffic, page views, etc - since it is more focused on full-platform product analytics.
Read full review It is well suited for situations or professionals that works with figures and data, or were you need to present this kind of information to your stakeholders. It may also be useful for students in the area of economics, accounting, finance or administration, to develop or train themselves in this area, linking the professional career with some IT knowledge.

So when you do call them ... it is for a legit question/issue, no just a "where is it" or a "how to I do xyz123?"
Read full review Usability The barrier for entry with Amplitude is somewhat steep due to the depth and comprehensiveness of its features. I benefitted greatly from having team members who were already familiar with Amplitude, but I could see the feature set being somewhat overwhelming to a new user. That being said, Amplitude does a great job at leading users through its UI with focused, helpful tooltips and insights. And once I had the basics down, I found the process of pairing with engineering to add events and properties to actually be quite straightforward.
Read full review Reliability and Availability Alway up and running, or if there is a problem we can get back in the game right away. The reliability was a big selling point for me, and it was true when this company got it. Rollouts can be tough, but this was pretty seamless. Good support throughout the process, good documentation to handle questions/tips
Read full review Performance No issues, problems, or negative remarks from us!! We had a plan, vendor support was rock solid, our data folks have experience, OCM supported as needed, and we got the rollout done on time, on budget, and with only minor hiccups. SInce the rollout, most of us have already forgotten the hiccups and generally speak highly of the product
Read full review Support Rating I haven't used the Amplitude support other than their training docs so I can't speak too much to the in-person support but the docs are serviceable. Nothing too crazy but between the user tips, email notifications, and the decent number of docs I was able to get the support I needed to ramp up on the tool.
Read full review In-Person Training Virtual Not bad considering the timeframe and turnaround. The biggest benefit was for my end-users to hear a voice (other than mine/ours! LOL) telling them about the new features and capabilities. The in-person training was really good for having an expert that knows the answers and could refer to past experiences, problems, solutions. THey were a great resource to ease the transition ... basically a "you are gonna be okay with this change ... you got this etc.!" kinda vibe
Read full review Online Training Good enough to get strong baseline. I always make sure our our users go to and/or focus on the vebndor-provided support docs rather than any formal training. Our instructors come and go, but written policy and how-to docs live much longer in a corporate setting. That said, the online training is sufficient. I like that the training curric is stacked and progressive.
Read full review Implementation Rating My team members all have background as data analysts, so Amp was pretty easy to for them. There was sufficient online training available. We also used the available support documents. The actual rollout went well. We did significant testing beforehand. We did a phased rollout, with partial silent rollout (part of OCM's plan) for the smallest line of business. THe silent one was "silent" b/c it was done without fanfare or public notices ... it was just a "we're doing some things, it wont impact your work or workday
Read full review Alternatives Considered It's the best in class with all the bells and whistles. Other options could suit you just fine at a lower price point, but you need to be sure of what you are not getting and the switching cost associated with when you do need it.

Google Analytics plus the positive experience with their support team when experiencing bags in the system.
Read full review Contract Terms and Pricing Model It is a good product. You have to pay for quality ... kinda like buying a Lexus or a Toyota instead of a Buick or a Chevy
Read full review Scalability Like all the other grades, it was mostly an easy implementation ... we have experience people, the rollout in general is well planned, and the vendor was very supportive
