Appsee Mobile App Analytics vs. Leanplum

Appsee was a great choice and addition before their struggle with Apple over user screen recording. Now that that's gone, its insights are rather basic and not worth the price point. This would be a perfect analytics platform for a company looking to increase its user experience, new on-boarding, or going through a redesign to see user activity and reactions, but not anymore.

I think Leanplum is great for any company that needs to use push notification to drive revenue or KPI growth. I often find that it can be very costly to integrate analytics solutions & also build good reporting from the data. Leanplum provides a lot of great analytics & reporting right out of the box, especially around push events. This makes it much easier for the managing marketing user to optimize campaigns and increase their team & company's KPIs.

Incentivized

• User session recordings of individual users
• Touch heatmaps and unresponsive gestures

• Viewing the history of a campaign. Leanplum shows exactly what a customer has been sent on which dates/times and due to which actions.
• AB Testing - allows us to see which messages are appreciated/opened more by which customers
• Team collaboration - we can see easily how recently a campaign or message was updated

• The user screen recording was quickly shut down on Apple devices after about a week of us using Appsee. Now it's just basic boxes which aren't nearly as helpful or insightful in bettering our user experience. If we would have known this would happen, or that Appsee didn't have that feature, we wouldn't have gone with them.
• No integration with Branch (the world's best and probably biggest attribution platform).

Incentivized

• Ability to create User Stories with a predefined funnel of actions that will chain themselves
• Ability to tag users once they enter or leave specific segments
• Should show in a simple page the main KPIS that matter for all our games at once
• More granularity in granting access to subsets (not sharing everything per account)

Appsee set itself apart from competitors with the user screen recording, but since that is no longer a good feature on iOS, it makes Appsee's competitive advantage obsolete. Its data analytics, funnels, and crash reporting are relatively basic or haven't lead to any breakthroughs. I would stay away from Appsee, save your money, and go for a platform like Mixpanel if possible, which has analytics, attribution, and engagement for the same if not cheaper price.

I was not a part of making the decision to use Leanplum over its competitors.

Incentivized

• Better conversion rates
• Less bugs/crashes
• Better user retention

• It helps us build the right features for our users with the help of A/B experimentation
• Re-engagement notifications help us keep company data metrics
