Appcues

It is best suited for NPS surveys and for tutorials. Our NPS surveys enabled us to set up user interviews and then help increase our NPS over time. We use Appcues for our tutorials as well as announcements. All new features go through this process. And tutorials about those features are set up to increase feature usage and get feedback.

It is great for segmentation. Demographics are key for trying to get new information about our customers and the tool really helps get the information quickly and makes it easy to digest new findings.

It's pretty expensive, so start-ups may shy away from this product. It does come with a lot of features that make it worthwhile.

It is well suited for SaaS products or services that have a highly complex user interface. Through Appcues, you can ensure that people discover all the existing and new features and make them understand the value of your product as soon as possible to address the evergreen issue of churn. But if your user interface is really messed up, you should change the product itself instead of using a tool like Appcues to explain everything on the screen.

[Appcues] is a great service for self learning a software to train people a software and to beta test software applications. I see lots of possibilities for training that people who are not great with technology using Appcues but still the pricing is not the best in the other services in the digital adoption space

Appcues works well for building in-app walkthroughs, modal windows to pop up information to users, and collect feedback from users. It's very easy to use, but it can be cumbersome at times and you do run into roadblocks that force you to create workarounds. For more purposes Appcues works great.

Appcues is well suited for web applications with small development teams that don't employ continuous integration to make updates to their application. If your application release methodology employs continuous integration, then Appcues may not be as useful because making changes to production can be expedited in the event of a typo or issue with the tooltip(s) or other user onboarding feature, but in my opinion, it's useful even in CI environments.

Appcues is perfect for in-app messaging and guiding users through completing product actions. They could improve the usability of the product and the overall UX / UI for new users. Their ability to customize a theme is great for an app that needs to setup something very professional quickly. The flows also look beautiful and feel like part of our app. We're glad we chose Appcues, it's just taken us awhile to fully implement it.
