Pendo.io vs. Userlane

Pendo is very well suited for startups and mid size product companies who are looking for -

• Help in user experience building
• Measuring the impact of a feature on the requirement phase itself
• Advanced analytics to get a sense of how the product is working
• Insights about necessary changes that are required to make the product better

Incentivized

Well suited:

• Web-based software with many users, complex processes (or both) --> Easy to fix a lot of common support / training issues very fast
• Software rollouts with high costs associated to ensure user acceptance is great --> Great feedback from users
• Multiple applications where processes are adjusted regularly --> Fast to roll out across many apps and easy to maintain

Not so well suited:

• Desktop apps -- > Doesn't really work for desktop
• Mobile apps --> Limited support, only works for web-based mobile apps
• Small user base (less than 50 users) --> Not required when there are only a few users

• Track usage across our platform (new and existing features) - where each customer clicks, how long they stay at certain areas within the software, etc.
• To promote new features.
• To train customers on how to use new features.
• To survey our customers within the software.

Incentivized

• Unbiased people and company.
• Professional team.
• Solution oriented team.

• I find the reporting and analytics to be a little light. They could improve custom reporting capabilities.
• Would like to see the capabilities of the Pendo tagging tool built into the platform. (don't launch a separate product). I find the tagging tool does a much better job at selecting the components to be tagged than the platform does.
• Sometimes takes a while to refresh counts when adding a new tag.

Incentivized

• Need to Improve User level analytics
• Need to Improve UX/UI
• Need to improve reporting
• More option to export the analytics report ,Currently you can export in PDF.

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.

Overall, Pendo provides a smooth interface, especially with the most recent update, and I couldn't imagine using or learning any other platform so product focused. From the moment I log into Pendo, I know where I'm going and what I'm looking for and I'm able to find that, through the interface, in as little time as possible. This helps keep me focused on doing other tasks at work so I'm not overburdened with hunting things down in the system

• Easy to use content editor, no specific knowledge needed
• Super fast to create interactive guides, went live within days
• Clean and actionable analytics, not too bloated

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.

Use Segment to install and cut developers out of the work cycle!

WalkMe is an industry leader, but they charge an arm and a leg. Working with them you get a lot of support and CSM time, but is it really worth that price tag? Pendo.io was an easy choice for that simple reason.

I haven't used any other to much extent.

• We have had an ROI in reduced support contacts.
• We have had increased NPS scores due to our ability to target messaging for the right reasons to the right audience members rather than blanket distribution of information.
• Delayed deployment in certain environments (being worked through) has led to a delay in one business area, but it is not public facing yet so we aren't heavily impacted by that yet.

• Higher conversion rate.
• Less support needed.
• Proactive communication solves the most user questions.
