Likelihood to Recommend I think that App Annie will be handy for the companies that provide service in multiple countries - so they have to deal with local competitors research and track the performance of the app (by the position and by the reviews) in different stores. I think that for a one-country app, many of the features will be less relevant. At the same time, App Annie offers custom plans, so I see how the user experience can be different.
Read full review Glassbox is a customer experience management platform that provides various tools, including Interaction Maps, to help organizations understand and improve the customer journey. Some specific scenarios where Glassbox is well suited include: Identifying pain points in the customer journey: The Interaction Maps feature provides a visual representation of customer interactions, allowing organizations to easily identify where customers may be struggling and take action to resolve the issue. Proactively addressing issues: With the Interaction Maps feature, organizations can proactively address issues as they arise, rather than relying on customer feedback to identify problems. Improving customer service: By understanding the customer journey, organizations can improve the overall customer experience and provide top-notch customer service. On the other hand, there may be some scenarios where Glassbox is less appropriate, such as: Organizations with a limited budget: Glassbox is a subscription-based service, so it may not be suitable for organizations with a limited budget or those who are not willing to make the investment in customer experience management tools. Organizations with minimal online presence: Glassbox is primarily focused on improving the online customer journey, so it may be less appropriate for organizations with a minimal online presence.
Read full review Pros Very easy to use and understand. The dashboard is quite complete. The free version is quite complete. They send daily and weekly emails with statistics on your apps so you can understand key facts to improve its standing. Read full review I like the ease of access that is provided to our internal users Super easy integration with our site and other tools The ability to navigate to any session, review the details and make actionable notes for resolution The ability to exclude sensitive information from being recorded. Read full review Cons App Annie is extremely limited if you are on the free plan. While you can garner some golden nuggets from the free plan, it's extremely difficult to make needle moving decisions based on the free data. It would be great if App Annie would disclose pricing on their website, plus have a non-free/enterprise plan were you could pick and choose features they offer. After nearly considering a paid plan with App Annie, I decided not to purchase because of the broken trust that stemmed from their sales team. I often got cold-calls from their reps - even when I never contacted them for a sales member to call me. I was bombarded for about 2 weeks straight with phone calls and hard-core sales emails with just asking to talk, no questions or personalization. This cold, unwanted and unwelcome outreach solidified my decision not to purchase. Read full review Some shiny new features are hard to use and/or optimize The email templates need improving. They are stiff and unfriendly. Ticket support is a bit weak. Slow response times and opinions for answers instead of facts. Read full review Likelihood to Renew Well the fact that the freemium features are all that I need right now, I will most definitely continue to use it on a daily basis. I might upgrade to the pro version in the future if I need more data than what I am getting now. But for now it works great for what I need.

Read full review Usability Glassbox has made it a mission to make the experience for the client as easy as possible. The entire system is intuitive and every report, screen and widget can be customized in just a few clicks, making both the onboarding and ongoing use a lot easier and enjoyable and helping us focus only on the business use
Read full review Support Rating I have not had to contact support a lot of times. The few times I did, I got correct and lengthy responses, but they took some time to answer. Their product is very complete, so unless you have a specific question, you will probably not need to contact support at any time.
Read full review Alternatives Considered We use Google 360 and are able to do a much deeper dive into the activity we see on our apps. I think App Annie is a great starting point product, but for more in depth analytics, something like a Google 360 or Adobe might be better.

Read full review Return on Investment App Annie has had neither a positive nor negative impact on our ROI or business objectives. Our team currently uses their free, very limited plan for data discrepancy with our main ASO tool. Otherwise, we have connected our apps and let the data flow in. We go in the account about once every 2-3 months. With App Annie's data we have solidified that our other paid ASO tool we use has accurate data and that we will continue to pay for that tool. So in that regards, App Annie's provided us with a confirmation in our competitor ASO tool purchase decision.
