Chose Amplitude Analytics
I find Amplitude much easier to use than Mixpanel or GA are. The UX is easy to grasp and as long as you have an intuitive set-up or good documentation on how your events are set up it makes for quick onboarding. Looker does a better job of easily allowing customization with SQL …
Amplitude has more advanced reporting whereas Mixpanel is mostly a “do-it-all” analytics tool. Choose Amplitude if you have enterprise-level marketing/users. Choose Mixpanel if you want to send notifications.
Amplitude Analytics & Mixpanel are both evenly matched in terms of features and value. Amplitude Analytics scores better in terms of conversion drives and cohort analysis in my opinion. In addition to that, Amplitude Analytics has done a lot more in terms of guiding …
Amplitude Analytics provides much more granular data than Google Analytics and gives you much more flexibility in how you can segment and splice the data. It also provides the ability to create closed funnels, which I have yet to find out how to do in Google Analytics. …
Amplitude provides better capabilities to consume real time event data and provide meaningful insights compared to other products like Mixpanel. It also provides better data governance capabilities to maintain accurate and high data quality.
Mixpanel was the top competitor to Amplitude when my organization was reviewing analytics tools. We went with Amplitude because it was more robust when it came to experimentation features and proactive insights. Amplitude also had an edge in team collaboration and data …
Amplitude Analytics is a robust platform that can take your data reporting beyond what's currently capable in GA. Heap is a great intermediate tool, that takes data analysis a step further and is an excellent product in it's own right. Mixpanel is the most comparable both have …
We've used a ton of analytics tools and Amplitude allows us to do everything we need for free. The other options we tried were either not robust enough to report on user level stats, or cost $. The platforms in this space are super competitively aligned so functionality wise …
Reviewers indicate that both Amplitude Analytics and Mixpanel are commonly used for tracking and analyzing user activity data. Both platforms have been used by teams focused on product management, marketing, and data analysis, among others. Customers of both products point out their functionality in uncovering custom user paths, tracking events, and creating user cohorts based on behavior.
Mixpanel users, however, report a more extensive reliance on funnel visualization and A/B testing features. These users often leverage Mixpanel’s tailored analytical models to track user conversion over time and test different UI/UX designs. On the other hand, Amplitude users frequently note the efficiency of the platform’s behavioral analysis for product optimization.
In terms of feedback, despite the shared functionality of these platforms, users have voiced unique concerns for each. Some Mixpanel customers have pointed out room for improvement in the platform’s ability to handle large data volumes and its pricing model, especially for start-ups. Comparatively, some Amplitude users have indicated a steep learning curve and a desire for improvement in data export options.
Amplitude Analytics is an excellent solution for anyone with a mobile app and you want to track what users are doing, are they completing conversion steps, and are they coming back more often. This all helps you visual your customer bases engagement and help project future engagement and create goals. This also helps with prioritizing products to address drop-off points in the product to increase conversions.
As a worker in the sales area, I see closely how complex it can be to evaluate the commercial funnel and Mixpanel has been an indispensable guide to prioritize above all what customers expect to receive from our company, and thus be able to determine the main service we offer. Without a doubt, Mixpanel has special functions to be the one that guides the route and marks the objectives much more clearly.
Mixpanel is a daily use application for everyone in my organization; it helps us have a better flow of information and interaction between work teams.
The user interface of this platform is simple and has a wide variety of functions and resources to help us work in the most organized way, have better team coordination, and keep efficiency high.
I love that it is so easy to program our calendar to our liking, so we can prioritize our activities and know what is pending, and the best thing is that I can update the calendar if necessary.
The chat function is great to improve the interaction between colleagues and share work schedules and any information with third parties.
Some offerings seem duplicative, like dashboards and notebooks, which only seem to differ in that one can subscribe to dashboards
The messaging on valid vs invalid property types could be better explained to clarify which types (string, Boolean, integer, etc) are expected in particular scenarios. Though the type is usually set during event creation, we've often seen examples where the data received in production is different, leading to 'invalid type' errors
Mixpanel requires an explicit setting of events from your app. This means you need to be very thoughtful in the design of your events because missing one means you aren't collecting any data from it. Inserting it into the process later on then brings challenges in tracking when certain events came online.
A tool like Mixpanel comes packed with features that sometimes are harder to discover. It's very easy to get sucked into one part of its toolset and not be aware of other tools which may be very useful.
Great product Good value for the cost/initiate Support docs and FAQs are great - they limit the necessity of reaching out to in-person support. 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?"
It's not an all encompassing solution like Google Analytics tries to be, but MixPanel offers much easier to use and understandable data insights. That's valuable when juggling many responsibilities as startup life demands, so a renewal would be easily justified.
It's a fairly straightforward platform that's beginner friendly. The biggest usability hurdle is most often created by your own team, as it's imperative to know what event sources are being sent to Amplitude and what those event names are. Within being properly onboarded by a team member it can be hard to get started using Amplitude. It takes time to understand what data your company may be sending to the product, the naming conventions of events (especially if there are old or deprecated events names
Relativity easy to use. Once you get the hang of it, very easy to create dashboards for different use cases. I split my dashboards between customers or use cases
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
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
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.
We have only ever had to use their support once, when we were setting up the account, but their responses were prompt and the solutions were well documented. The people who solved our issues were helpful, even to non-tech people.
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
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.
Mixpanel has a great resource about their product, with videos on how to use it and real world examples from other companies on how they integrate Mixpanel into their business processes.
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
Again, somewhat annoying to be charged based on data points when many other analytics providers have one flat fee. Implementation was good, but I might have tracked a few more detailed points if I had the option.
Amplitude Analytics provides much more granular data than Google Analytics and gives you much more flexibility in how you can segment and splice the data. It also provides the ability to create closed funnels, which I have yet to find out how to do in Google Analytics. Amplitude has a very similar interface to Mixpanel, with a few handy additions, like the ability to name and categorize your events.
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
We've been able to increase the funnel conversions of one of our new product funnels from a 1% conversion rate to a 5% conversion rate.
We've been able to increase the CTR on another of our main product pages from ~3% to ~10% (so far)
We've been able to segment out how users from different traffic sources behave, allowing us to eliminate thousands of dollars of wasteful spending on advertising campaigns that weren't working.
