Overall Satisfaction with Kissmetrics
We use Kissmetrics to track user behavior within our website, mobile apps and inside of our API.
- Easy to implement tracking within the API so that you don't use too much dev time on tracking users instead of developing the product itself.
- You can add properties to the events so that you can enrich the data you are collecting later.
- Lots of help within the community and tools that are available, such as statistical significance calculator.
- The reports on the website are quite basic, you can only subset by one property and filter by on property at a time
- The numbers take a while to settle. Because of the sheer amount of events hitting the platform it can take a day or so for the number to be static between days.
- Live feature is very hard to use for testing, if you could filter out the feed by IP address that would be excellent!
- Better understanding of customer behavior
- Better use of dev time
Much easier to implement with Kissmetrics and/or the others don't let you customise your events to the same extent without hardcoding events into the website.
