User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend
Heap is well suited for 1. Capture customer journey with session replay 2. Identify customer behaviour and improve overall customer experience 3. Frequent and quick implementations and modifications 4. Comparative analysis for historical marketing insights Heap is not so well suited, if the aim is to capture only analytics data without any goals to improve upon customer experience / targeting appropriate users based on data tracking.

App is well suited for analyzing the customer behavior and flows. It helps in tracking the user funnel on the app. It can record the sessions so its helpful in qualitative research and analysis.

Secondly, it's very helpful in monitoring the performance of the app across different devices, analytics, etc. It helps in analyzing the frozen or crashed sessions.

Pros
  • The Auto Capture function does indeed save quite a bit of time, and being able to build new reports off historical data is really valuable.
  • Interface is really intuitive and user-friendly. Much easier to pick up and use than GA.
  • Building reports out on the fly is really quick and easy, allowing you to give right into all kinds of analyses.
  • The Event Definition screen is really useful, giving a quick glance at the most used events, which you then decide to turn into conversions or goals if you want.

Cons
  • I think Heap can improve its onboarding; I would love to see some info that is helpful for someone who isn't in Heap every single day.
  • Sharing dashboards can be tricky, it feels like a huge learning curve that I already have forgotten how to do.

  • Loading time is high due to which we have to wait a lot sometimes
  • In heatmaps, more properties can be added eg. User cohort, experiment id
  • Provide filters to easily check the recordings by screen and feature dropoffs

Usability
Sometimes, Heap has issues reconciling similar selectors, and I have not found the manual tagging system to be the most intuitive, especially when best practices are not used when designing the front-end infrastructure. Even so, it helps that the data is unmodified, and all analytics are done through an interfaced layer, so damage and confusion [are] not permanent.

Performance
On a scale from 1-10, Heap loads pages fairly quickly. The only time I experience delays is when I am loading a graph with perhaps too many events or filters on the page. But in terms of creating or searching for events or viewing reports, I don't ever experience a lag.

Implementation Rating
The implementation was smooth and easy. The Heap team helped us with implementation and it went great! Within a few weeks, we were fully up and running and utilizing the platform to its full capability. This is an additional thing that has made this platform so great and we couldn't recommend it enough.

Alternatives Considered
Heap is better because its easy to use, easy to install. With Heap you just add a snippet of tracking code to your header, instead of having to instrument each event like you do with other tools.

The pricing for UXCam App Analytics was promising and within our budgets. Reaching out to UXCam team was easy and within a week they presented the key features along with customisable pricing subscriptions we can opt for. The feedback around UXCam App Analytics was also positive as we checked from outside organisations. UXcam team also helped around integration with the tech team to make it swift.

Scalability
The most challenging part of using Heap in a growing organization is the naming and structure in which reports and dashboards are organized. I work within the marketing department and our Heap leader internally works within the IT/Product department, which makes it challenging because we often don't speak the same language, so the learning curve has been steep without any specific use-case examples to leverage online.
