Kissmetrics is embedded in the app by the engineering team but the data it produces is used by everyone in the company. We track events and important statistics to drive our product development. The engineering team is responsible for adding the metrics and managing the implementation but the reports are available to everyone.
  • Kissmetrics is great at tracking events. If there is a specific event your users do that would help drive business decisions this is the tool for that.
  • Reporting is also incredibly easy. You can funnel users through a report and discover where behavior or use drops off of a workflow.
  • It's incredibly easy to implement. With just a few lines of code you can start tracking your own custom events.
Cons
  • Reporting is powerful but it could use a little work on making it easier for people outside the product department.
If you are looking to just track page views this isn't the tool. But if you want to track specific events a user does Kissmetrics is exactly the tool you need.

Kiss Metrics - user level analysis

We decided to buy KISSmetrics to augment the data we were collecting through Google Analytics. Since the majority of the transactions on our site were generated from repeat buyers and there's a huge LTV skew toward a small percentage of buyers, we really wanted granular data regarding user behavior. The tool was pretty easy to set-up, but you need to pay attention to the way that visitors are counted and how attribution works with dimensions. If you're used to GA, KM is more like universal analytics, which represents more of an event: attribute model. They've done a lot to speed up reports over the past year and being able to see the paths of actual people across time as they traverse events and properties is very interesting if you're managing UX or marketing. It's a good product if you have a use case that ties into analyzing individual user behavior.
  • User level analysis
  • Flexible event attribute model
  • Easy interface
Cons
  • Report export options
  • Report scheduling
If you have a site which is primarily lead generated or very limited in scope, or where behavior is very homogeneous, there's no point.

For detailed user activity, Kissmetrics is your tool.

We set up Kissmetrics to get a better understanding of how users were using the website in order to better tailor the site to user needs/wants. The data provided is very useful if you know what to do with it and the program works well. It seems there are constantly new features, which is always a plus for any software. Overall the software is great, and very useful, but the cost can be prohibitive for a small company.
  • The extensive data is great for really understanding your website users.
  • Easy to see the exact flow that your users follow and can give insight on where you can improve.
  • Extensive report data, and you can really dig down to find just about any information.
Cons
  • The cost is really not affordable for a small business or startup, but if you can budget it, the data is invaluable.
  • No graphical outputs-- it would be nice to have graphs for those clients that are more visual.
  • Bit of a learning curve if you're not already familiar with data it provides and how to use it.
A great tool for companies that want to really track their website users and/or are using funnels to gain customers. The data Kissmetrics provides is invaluable to a strong marketing plan to determine what is and isn't working. For small businesses and start-ups the cost can be prohibitive. But if you want extensive data on how users are interacting with your site(s) Kissmetrics will give it you.

Stellar product!

  • Kissmetrics has a fantastic dashboard where you can see all relevant metrics immediately after login.
  • Kissmetrics was extremely easy to implement in our site and it works across different platforms.
  • After the initial setup, managing and creating new events to track is super simple.
  • You can monitor live usage. This feature allows you to monitor user interactions as they are happening and as events you are tracking are triggered. You can see exactly what users are doing real time, which is really a very cool feature. At the time, this kind of realtime monitoring was not possible with Google Analytics.
Cons
  • Live usage UI can be improved a lot. although this was definitely a very cool feature, it was somewhat marred by a poor and confusing UI. It shows a stream of actions events being triggered, but it's a bit difficult to figure out how to actually use this stream of data. For example, it;s very difficult to follow a single user. This feature needs a much more intuitive visual design for it to be truly useful as well as just cool.
Kissmetrics is a very good and simple tracking and reporting system. I think that all web properties should have it installed in order to be able to track what's important. You can still have google analytics in conjunction with KISSmetrics and get good insights from that product, but the simplicity and ease-of-use offered by Kissmetrics makes it a no-brainer.

  • KISSmetrics did Funnel Analysis really well. Unlike Google Analytics, the admin does not need to predefine the funnel paths and can change funnel paths on the fly. This is very useful because the admin does not always know which path would they be most interested in.
  • KISSmetrics also does tracking of individual users really well. It is able to tie user visits to your website from before the user registers. It is also able to track user visits on different browsers and devices.
  • KISSmetrics customer support is incredible. Each time we had an issue, they would quickly hop on a call and provide all the necessary information and detailed responses.
  • KISSmetrics admin tools' user experience is extremely intuitive. Even for non-technical audiences, it is very easy to learn and start using.
Cons
  • At the time I used KISSmetrics, I was not able to use the user segmentation functionality very easily.
  • The API level integration between KISSmetrics and any metrics that the business may be capturing was available, but did not support all features.
To anyone looking to make a selection between various analytics platforms, I would recommend considering the following
- What is the level of expertise of the admin using the tool?
- What features are most important to you?
- Do you care most for webview or number of actual people using your service?
- Do you know in advance what metrics you will be most interested in?
