I work for an eCommerce company named fourseven that sells consumer-based products online. We have been using Mouseflow for around the past 2 years to track customer activity on our website. It is being used by the marketing department of the organization. There are some days when we get a lot of traffic on the website but conversions are significantly less. In such a scenario, we use Mouseflow to check if there is any technical issue or other issues on the website that is hindering the conversion process. Mouseflow has really helped us to tackle certain technical issues of the website. We have been able to optimize our website for users thereby increasing the conversion rate. We use heatmaps to find out where customers spend most of the time on the website.
  • It can integrate easily with any platform that we use, like Magneto.
  • Anyone can use it without any thorough training. Also, videos are available to give an overview of the tool.
  • Free trial is available to get an insight into Mouseflow.
  • It is absolutely secure to use on your website.
  • The data captured or recorded by Mouseflow is pretty easy to read. You just need to login to your account and a dashboard will open consisting of all the recordings and heatmaps captured.
  • Free version could have more features.
  • Should be optimized for a better view on mobile devices.
  • Although it provides a complete list of data, it is not able to capture certain sessions.
If you are having a product or service-based website where you want a user to perform any action like form fill-up or making a purchase, then you should definitely use Mouseflow. I am sure that it will boost your conversions. Besides, you will optimize your website in a better way making it more user friendly.
  • Bounce rate decreased.
  • Increased conversions & sales.
Mouseflow is pretty easy to use. You need to be a core technical person to implement it on your site. Mouseflow provided us a tracking code that need to be installed on the website, and if do not have the knowledge of how to work on the backend of the website, you will not be able to install it. Here you will need the help of a technical person who has a good knowledge of your website platform to install the code on the website.

There are also videos available giving insight on how to use the Mouseflow platform. I personally haven't faced any problem while using Mouseflow. Just login to this tool and a dashboard will open in front of you.
I personally haven't felt the need for customer support of Mouseflow. However, if someone feels the need for customer support at any time, they can get in touch with them. Customer support number and email address are mentioned on the website. I am sure they will help you in solving the problem that you are facing while operating this platform.

I use Mouseflow to explore how users are interacting with websites that I build and manage. This helps me test for usability issues and understand how users are navigating the site in a way that aggregate analytics data doesn't provide. This has helped me identify problem areas of our sites and find solutions that help users have a better experience interacting with the site.
  • Reliable screen recording.
  • The ability to filter recorded sessions by a number of variables.
  • Heatmaps and scroll maps.
  • Screen recording on mobile devices can be a little clunky.
  • I would like to only record sessions from a specific geographic area, but don't have the option. I can filter afterwards, but would prefer to exclude traffic that is not local altogether.
  • Filtering options don't allow me to filter recordings based on a partial URL.
Mouseflow is well suited for marketers and website administrators who would like to record user activity on their website to solve marketing and usability problems. Out of all of the solutions that I've tried, Mouseflow has been the most reliable. They offer a free tier so you can get started with the service without the risk of investing budget in expensive software.
  • Increased the number of interactions on our website.
  • Provided objective evidence to stakeholders to back up usability decisions.
Mouseflow is a supplement to Google Analytics and improves on some Analytics functions. Mouseflow adds qualitative data to the quantitative data that Analytics provides to help marketers better understand their website visitors.

Currently Mouseflow is used by the digital product team to understand how customers are using our websites. Session recording is used to understand exactly how people are interacting with pages on site, and the heat maps help with understanding which areas of the site are viewed and where users are focusing their attention. These two Mouseflow features are great for quickly boosting understanding of problems users are having without having to immediately resort to more expensive user or lab testing.
  • Session recording shows exactly what users are doing on your website. When they scroll, what they click on, when they hesitate - you see the screen as they would see it.
  • Heat maps show you where users are clicking, how far down the page they scroll, where their mouse cursors spend most of their time and also which area of the page they dedicate the most attention to.
  • Form analytics show you how users are interacting with your forms - which fields they click into, how long they spend in each field and also which fields are causing them to drop out (is it that unneeded phone number field?).
  • Helps bolster your standard A/B testing tool so you can understand exactly how usage is differing between two scenarios, and makes it easier to settle disputes amongst colleagues about what will work best.
  • Session recording isn't exactly as a user would see it (e.g. it renders the HTML a user sees in your browser, rather than as they saw it). This means you might not see browser specific display quirks.
  • Session recording isn't perfect, especially on responsive sites or dynamic pages. Sometimes clicks register in the wrong place and what you see on screen doesn't line up exactly with what a user would have seen, and is more noticeable on mobile devices.
  • Form analytics requires a unique ID for each form. I've worked with a couple of CMS systems where this wasn't possible to achieve, so wasn't able to take advantage of this feature in all scenarios.
  • Tagging feature is useful, but it would be great if Mouseflow was able to capture all sessions and then only keep those sessions which match the criteria you're searching for (e.g. people encountering a specific error or visiting a particular page). This would make it easier to diagnose more complex, multi-page problems and understand how a user triggers them without using all of your monthly sessions.
Mouseflow is a great when you're working in a busy product development or conversion optimisation environment, and want to understand exactly how customers are interacting with your site or app so you can respond. It's a capable tool that offers some great insight at a fraction of the cost of competitors like SessionCam or ClickTale. It has occasional problems in captures that its competitors suffer from less often, but if you're looking for a general understanding of usage then this is a great tool. It doesn't have built-in integrations with all A/B testing tools, but it does have a built-in Google Tag Manager tag so its very easy to set up without assistance. If you've got the budget to select reliability over cost, then you may choose to opt for a more mature, enterprise offering. But if your budget is limited, or you're just looking to prove the value of session recording as a concept, then Mouseflow will more than do the job.
  • Helped more user sign ups by helping identify problems on registration forms.
  • Understanding exactly which content is being viewed so we can understand how to rearrange landing pages for maximum effect.
  • Providing an affordable alternative to user testing so we can quickly identify issues in prototypes and get more value from actual lab testing.
Each of these tools has a similar underlying offering. Mouseflow is probably the least mature offering in terms of feature set and reliability, but it is a competitor product that is working hard to work out the engineering kinks. They also have great customer service representative who are willing to listen and are very helpful. You also get a capable tool with a great feature set at a reasonable price - in some cases Mouseflow was just 1/10th of the price. Ultimately with a constrained marketing budget, this tool made sense for us.
