Considered Both Products	gemiusHeatMap No answer on this topic	Smartlook Joseph Shapiro CEO (Chief Executive Officer) Chose Smartlook I like it more in different aspects such as pricing, capabilities, UI, etc. When it comes to the pricing, I have been using it for many years, and always was easy to use and to see what was happening with conversions. It's the most undervaluable tool these days. When I was … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Smartlook FullStory, Hotjar and Mixpanel Incentivized Helpful? Francesco Tonti Development Director Chose Smartlook I find that SmartLook has a simpler interface to use than Hotjar. Incentivized Helpful? Firoz Parakkat Co-Founder & Head of Product Chose Smartlook Easy Integration and Ease of Use. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Smartlook FullStory is more complex, detailed, better-looking and way more expensive. Therefore I think it makes sense to start with Smartlook at least. FullStory also has yearly plans which is really annoying. Hotjar doesn't have browser error logging which is a huge disadvantage for … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Smartlook Smartlook is the better overall value of all the solutions we've tried. Hotjar was overpriced, Lucky Orange seems more like an experimental project than a full-fledged product and Mouselflow seems to have some problems dealing with some types of browsers that we did not … Incentivized Helpful? AK Aaron King Owner Chose Smartlook Both were great to use, but Smartlook was WAY more affordable. Incentivized Helpful? CT Chris Turowski Tech Lead Chose Smartlook Smartlook is couple steps ahead of the solutions we've used before. Especially when it comes to funnels. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Smartlook For me personally, I use Smartlook more for the debugging side of things, so I wish it had more debugging/error reporting features. Incentivized Helpful? EK Eric Kowallis Product Manager Chose Smartlook Like I mentioned, Smartlook is younger than FullStory and it seems like they're trying to improve. The dashboards are lacking. I wish I had more control over what I see there instead of the standard. We use the API to determine customer name and company and I'd like to see some … Incentivized Helpful? David Mynář Head Of Online Marketing Chose Smartlook We use both intensively in our agency. Google Analytics is our first go-to analytics suite, but we often combine it with Smartlook to prove or disprove our hypotheses. Both our web design and marketing projects benefit greatly from this synergy. Google Analytics offers better … Incentivized Helpful? SB Sarah Bellaiche Product Design/Development Engineer Chose Smartlook For me, Smartlook gathers everything a product designer or even a product manager needs. We have everything gathered in a single platform, and it's very powerful we can analyze everything we need. It's the only product where recordings are as well done. The UX/UI of the … Incentivized Helpful? AG Axel Gislason Engineering Manager Chose Smartlook Smartlook has all the features of the other products I have tried but was both simpler to use and cheaper. Incentivized Helpful? Leandro Chaves Analista de sistemas Chose Smartlook Smartlook is better and costs less than many other similar systems. Incentivized Helpful? IG Ivan GadeaSaez Assistant Director Chose Smartlook I have never used other products similar to Smartlook. Incentivized Helpful? Giuseppe Avagliano Marketing Director Chose Smartlook Smartlook seems smoother than Hotjar and it also offers more customizable options such as events and funnels. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Smartlook Compared to Hotjar, the first, and most important criteria for us is the performance impact on our customers. We've always had problems with Hotjar's rather resource-intensive script, which causes a noticeable degradation even on medium to high-performance client devices. In … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Smartlook Smartlook is better in tracking events, building advanced funnels, and filtering out the sessions than Hotjar. It's definitely cheaper and more user-friendly than Fullstory. Incentivized Helpful? Nicholas Fenmor Collins Director Chose Smartlook Smartlook is far more cost-effective and simple to use for agencies with multiple clients than Hotjar, which targets the user companies more directly. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Smartlook So much simpler to the user and way more effective. The pricing for our requirement was also much better. Incentivized Helpful? Michael Freeman Head Of Marketing (Acting) Chose Smartlook The thing about Hotjar is they became too big too fast. They forgot what their product was all about and then started to charge an exorbitant amount for what is a glorified heat map. Smartlook has taken into account new features but always kept the essence of what they're … Incentivized Helpful? Shane McCallum Director of Product Chose Smartlook Far better bang for your buck. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Smartlook At my old company, we debated using FullStory, but I believe Smartlook was the better option financially. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Smartlook 100% better. Microsoft had no support at all. They directed you to a forum where other users "could" assist, but there was no assistance. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Smartlook In terms of analytics, we are still using other products, which are more suited to our needs and more complex. In terms of user behavior and session recording, this is by far the best tool there is! Incentivized Helpful?

User Testimonials
	gemiusHeatMap	Smartlook
Likelihood to Recommend	No answers on this topic	Smartlook is best for screen recordings. Especially when you are running MVPs. However, its pricing is very high. If your daily visitors are too much then either you will have to lose many of your recordings or you will have to pay too much money. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	No answers on this topic	Funnels are both easy to configure yet comprehensive enough to detect complicated customer journeys. Real-time recording provides exceptional insights to our design & engineering teams. Session recording is surprisingly lightweight and seems to cause no substantial performance degradation for our customers. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	No answers on this topic	Events -- but I think this is something that we could improve ourselves in our system. Create some suggestions for funnels and heatmaps. Give general insights for a certain period of time, e.g. from Oct. 7th to 12th, 75 users left the checkout step and 60% of them left due to a payment issue. IDK just bringing some ideas! Send an e-mail with main insights. Incentivized MN Marina Neta Senior Product Design/Development Engineer Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	No answers on this topic	As my ratings show, I have been absolutely delighted with Smartlook in terms of usability, cost, support, and its benefit to our organization. I have given it such high ratings because I think it has really benefitted our organization and I think it could do the same for other companies too. Incentivized RF Rob Fielding Digital Growth Manager Read full review
Usability	No answers on this topic	Smartlook is very intuitive and simple for an average programmer (I don't know if it will be as simple for a normal user). We have never had to resort to looking for information on the web or ask for help for something we didn't understand or didn't work as expected. Incentivized IG Ivan GadeaSaez Assistant Director Read full review
Support Rating	No answers on this topic	I am always very happy when a company offers the option to use online chat, as I do not like to call customer support and writing an email is just too slow and cumbersome. I did not even expect a reply right away, yet it took the customer support team less than a minute to respond to my problem.

Alternatives Considered	No answers on this topic	Like I mentioned, Smartlook is younger than FullStory and it seems like they're trying to improve. The dashboards are lacking.

Return on Investment	No answers on this topic	We have increased the conversion rate from the beginning till now with 120%. We redesigned our landing pages and decreased the bounce rate by 41%. We rethinked and redesigned our menu structure and internal site linking to increase the time users spent on our site based on the data we got from Smartlook analysis.
