Appsee Mobile App Analytics vs. AppMetrica

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.

The main use of AppMetrica for us as a video game company is for studying data for marketing purposes through its generated reports. We want analytics on our project campaign so we can better learn users' behaviors and make adjustments based on what we received to maximize our profit. There are different types of report data, such as behavior and traffic sources, that are good information for us to know how regarding target marketing.

Incentivized

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

• API allows to fetch aggregated and raw data and generate reports easily
• This software is great at monitoring all kind of traffic sources
• The data export feature is great use for tracking my Steam sale campaign
• Running the app allows tracking activities of users seamlessly

• 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

• User interface
• Options to check each session or user journey separately
• Push notifications delivery status
• Properly connection with other marketing tools

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.

Firstly the cost of AppMetrica is less as compared to other alternatives, and some other parameters also meters like performance, documentation for the implementation, quality of data, connectivity to the other third-party tools, and so on. AppMetrica fulfills all these requirements and fits very well in my scenario, so I started with AppMetrica.

Incentivized

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

• Reports generation helps marketing purposes
• Data tracking allow monitoring user behavior
• More features such as additional statistics or data generation would be appreciated
