Appcues vs. Minitable

It is well suited for SaaS products or services that have a highly complex user interface. Through Appcues, you can ensure that people discover all the existing and new features and make them understand the value of your product as soon as possible to address the evergreen issue of churn. But if your user interface is really messed up, you should change the product itself instead of using a tool like Appcues to explain everything on the screen.

Some scenarios where it has helped me was where there was a large group of customers on sight who all wanted to eat but we wanted to provide individual meals to them, so we used Minitable to show them the menu in the morning and have them submit their order by 10:30 am to put in the order and have it ready by 11:30. It was not so appropriate for smaller groups where some did not have an account to Minitable.

• As a whole, Appcues is very easy to use.
• You can build templates to easily style future modal windows and tooltips.
• They have great customer service! Any time I've had a question our support rep always gets back to me with solutions.

• Easy ordering.
• No waiting in line.
• No processing fees.

• We were extremely surprised that there are not any Appcues used in Appcues. The app is pretty easy to use, once you figure out how to use it. There were not any type of tutorials when we logged in that quickly walked through how to setup a flow.
• Appcues has lots of support articles, however they are almost so numerous that it was hard to find simple onboarding documentation that we found useful.
• The different tooltips and product actions are great, but being able to customize the different cues a little bit more by changing sizes and aspect ratios could be an improvement.

• Some menus are proven difficult.
• Not everyone has an account so they do have to make one to use.
• Sometimes communications are a bit much through emails.

It has a much, much better user interface, better customer care, and of course better pricing. This along with the fact that they were very accommodating for our use case ensured we went ahead with Appcues.

I do not like using Airkit at all, but I would say Minitable is comparable to DoorDash.... just cannot reserve a table on DoorDash like you can on Minitable. Minitable is more business-friendly than DoorDash and Airkit. I would only use Minitable in a business setting and I would use DoorDash in a personal setting.

• Appcues has allowed us to quickly deploy user help features that target specific users, audiences, even customers with very little effort.
• Appcues has helped gain user traction by providing helpful tooltips, tours, and other rich content, reducing the first-time user learning curve.

• There are no processing fees, so company does not have to pay for ordering.
• Paying for customers meals is never great on ROI but must be done.
• Customers enjoy picking their own meal and having it delivered.
