Chose Pendo.io
Pendo.io seems to be more commonly known and already integrated with other parts of our business, so that's why we've stuck with them as a vendor. It often takes a good chunk of work to set up product analytics tools, so there is a reason of current stickiness with the tool if …

It's incredible for anyone who works at a saas and does customer support. It's the first job I've ever used Logrocket at and it adds such a great layer of service

Pendo.io
I don't think Pendo.io will be able to 100% replace our onboarding workflow, but for our new users from existing customers, we are launching onboarding guides to help that segment of new users receive more on-demand, self-service training. It is a little tricky to still figure out segments based on our app's ability to have custom user roles, and it would be great to be able to create segments based on whether a user's page has a specific button appear rather than tracking their clicks, since that will inevitably leave some users out of the segment.

Pendo.io
  • Creating solutions that you actually need and want to use - no fluff.
  • Enabling you to adopt those solutions by providing resources and a community for continual learning and improvement.
  • Everyone at Pendo.io is a rockstar - A-List employees throughout the ranks who are all determined to help you succeed. I'm amazed at all the awesome people I've worked with at Pendo. In 5 years I've never had a less-than-stellar interaction with a Pendozer.

Cons
LogRocket
  • It's a shame recordings are capped to the previous month, but I believe this might be due to the plan we're on?
  • Cropping sessions could be simplified I think - particularly the cropping tool's design

Pendo.io
  • Pendo.io's Customer Support is sometimes lacking both in terms of response time and clarity/usefulness of the responses
  • Pendo.io's Customer API could use quite a bit of improvement, both in terms of what kind of functionality it allows but also in terms of the documentation available for it
  • Pendo.io's built in reporting and analysis building capabilities could be improved to allow more customization and options.
  • Pendo.io in-product communications (Pendo Guides) could be improved, particularly its out-of-the-box capabilities regarding customization of the interactions that they can "trigger" within the platform it is being used for and the types of "flow"/transitions it can support for walkthroughs. We use custom code (which Pendo Guides do support and that's nice) to make certain things work but it would be better to be able to do these things without it.

We have had an excellent experience with Pendo. When we've had questions or concerns, Pendo is very quick to respond and communicate with us. We have experienced top-notch customer support and customer engagement. We have actually modeled some of our implementation and product processes after Pendo's examples.

The design of their product is visually appealing, but I find their dashboard capabilities a tad too rudimentary. I also think their guide designs could benefit from ability to customize it a bit more and align to the look and feel of our brand.

They've been great anytime that we have needed help with something. They also have some really great help articles. We're able to figure most things out through their articles, but when we've had to call in they've been very helpful and we haven't had any problems. I'd highly recommend working with them.

The training schedule was well thought out and tailored to meet our needs. Chantelle stayed with us through the whole implementation and made sure that we were good to go.

Pendo.io doesn't try to fit every possible product management feature inside the application, rather it focuses on the user experience and analytics part. And they do that beautifully. Because they are focused on their strength so they are best in that, also their pricing is better than all the other competitors.

Pendo.io
  • It has saved us tons of money on marketing. Instead of having our team spend tons of money on advertising for new products and services, we are able to connect with our customers directly in the product, which essentially is free (aside from paying for Pendo).
  • It has saved us tons of time by not having to do big reach outs to current customers.
  • It has helped a ton with churn and onboarding. We can quickly figure out which of our customers are and aren't utilizing certain key components within our software.
