Watching user sessions of those using our product is an invaluable experience. I use FullStory almost daily to better understand the complaints and feedback of our users, and find ways to best assist them. The user session review feature is also especially helpful for determining the behavior of our users, and exploring how they actually use our portal versus how we believe they would.

Great for identifying end-user behavior trends and bugs. We use it to track specific user journeys from sign-in to set-up problems where they claim to see a certain problem, but we don't see it in our system logs - so FS helps us determine a certain level of truth. This is especially helpful with getting timestamps of certain issues we can correlate internally.

Full story is very well equipped to handle debugging on the go, as I can set an alert for customer Segments to bring attention to any site issues that may occur. It also is used by our customer support team to help customers troubleshoot issues with their account and subscription. It's less applicable towards metrics that rely on a third party referral source, such as Facebook or Instagram. That tunnel can be hard to follow.

Fulltstory is greatly suited for the product teams that are growing and have web or mobile apps. The biggest challenge that it solved for us is that we don't have to worry about creating customer events tags and embedding those inside the code to measure the user behavior. And the complexity of scaling the analytics as more and more feature experimentations are done is hugely simplified.

It was extremely useful in identifying places in our product where things weren't functioning, or where it looked like action was available to the end user but in reality, it was not and therefore caused lots of confusion. It doesn't help as much in other scenarios to see what catches a user's Eye or where they go if they leave our application as well as an actual in-person interview would help with eye-tracking software.

Full story is as good as it gets for recording sessions. I love it. They are adding some good reporting and metrics tools that seem to have promise. However, you need to be ready to fork out a bit of dough. Their pricing is kind of confusing and has increased pretty substantially over the years.

In my experience, Fullstory is super well suited for targeting a specific user's mistakes/struggles in their online sessions. For example, troubleshooting issues that customers complain about. It's also helpful to look at page success as a whole (for example, watching multiple customer journeys on a new website page to see if it's being used as planned). I think it is less suited for marketing insights, but maybe we just haven't explored much with that.

I used FullStory to review the user experience in general. It allowed me to find issues, then search for other users that encountered the same issue. This allowed me to report the scope of an issue accurately to leadership and development, and to prioritize effectively. The most useful feature to define the scope of an issue was searching for a specific console error or uncaught exception.

I also reviewed user sessions right after releasing a new feature or product. I would search for an exact button click define user journey to review this.

For a start up, this tool will allow you to view how well your product and features are being utilized by customers. As a start up this is very important to understand the customer feedback loop. Viewing of the customer interactions is something that takes a lot of time and requires additional workforce hours to be utilized.

FullStory is well suited for recording user experience sessions and providing metrics on that. Imagine if your customer says, "I clicked on this button, but then a, b, c happened," but they didn't realize that the button that they clicked on 3 minutes before then caused that issue. FullStory is perfect for such a scenario. It's also relatively easy to implement FullStory in your code to support it.

Great to use for monitoring and learning about updates in the system and how users are utilizing them. The support team is able to get additional information that the users have left out in their tickets and see what they were going through before submitting a ticket. The marketing and product teams can monitor pages with ease.

Depends on what the colleague is trying to achive. Attribution validation is possible by the Full story videos (when existing). The most useful feature is to actually see what your customers are dealing with, where they experience confusion, cold starts and etc. Overall a useful tool but not just for page visits since you can get that from trackers, but more for the ability to study the experience of users in the product.

If you’re looking for software to monitor playback sessions of users on your marketing site or inside of your product, then FullStory is meant for you. It does come with some analytics capabilities; however, deep analytics tools such as Sigma are more appropriate for product analytics tracking at this point.

FullStory is great at showing you "what" customers are doing. FullStory is not good at telling you "why" customers are doing something. However, knowing the what they are doing allows you to formulate the right questions to then continue research and connect with users to understand they "why" a lot better.

I'd love to use for KPI tracking but data seems limited (lower than actual numbers), it's more for top level identification of frictions or issues.
It's perfect for a product owner to find future usability improvements and great for debugging.

Fullstory is a wonderful tool to get a quick estimation of feature adoption.
It also helps identifying areas where users are struggling with.
Another big plus is the developer panel that helps finding and fixing bugs.

It is less useful when trying to understand how many users saw something without them clicking.

It's really helpful to our support team and saves a lot of time and energy that was formerly wasted trying to recreate bugs or getting a user on the phone and getting them to try to describe it. It's also helpful for seeing usage trends over time. Playback is particularly helpful in revealing user behavior.
