| Considered Both Products |  GoSquared  Jake Noble Director Chose GoSquared Chartbeat does not have as many features as GoSquared.  Filippo Corti Blogger Chose GoSquared GoSquared is easier and more intuitive to use, also less advanced but it offers enough functionality for most websites. It can be used in conjunction with more advanced tools.  Bailey Bliss Owner Chose GoSquared I use GoSquared in tandem with Google Analytics on my site since I don't need an all-in-one marketing software for this site. I love the clean, easy-to-read reports that I receive from GoSquared on a daily/weekly/monthly basis. The graphs are easy to interpret and it pulls the …  Draco Li Engineer Chose GoSquared For realtime analytics, GoSquare is my go to pick since it does it really well and is very simple to use. The dashboard is also really great to show the team analytics of our website at a glance.  Dale Williams UI Designer Chose GoSquared Google Analytics is massively bloated and can be difficult to configure, navigate and understand. While GoSquared doesn't provide the feature set that Google Analytics does it focuses on providing the best experience for the features it does offer. If you just want to know who … Chose GoSquared As I said previously, I rather pay for a superb product than use a good free product. I think GoSquared beats Google Analytics on user-friendliness, usability, and UX. The team seems to not stand still and is always innovating, which I value, too.  James Billingham CTO (Chief Technical Officer) Chose GoSquared For simplicity & real-time data, GoSquared beats Google Analytics easily. However, for more complex analytics requirements, GoSquared simply doesn't support the vast array of reporting abilities which Google Analytics affords.  Erdoğan Kürtür Chief Software Engineer Chose GoSquared It is easy, fast and real time. GoSquared does not need a rocket scientist to operate and understand. It shows what is happening on your sites now.  Sharon Hurley Hall Professional blogger, writer, journalist Chose GoSquared I have used several analytics packages, including Clicky, Piwik and of course, Google Analytics. At the time when I used GoSquared, it had some unique features, but now the others have closed the gap in functionality, especially in allowing users to create widget based … |  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 …  Francesco Tonti Development Director Chose Smartlook I find that SmartLook has a simpler interface to use than Hotjar.  Firoz Parakkat Co-Founder & Head of Product Chose Smartlook Easy Integration and Ease of Use.  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 …  Leandro Chaves Analista de sistemas Chose Smartlook Smartlook is better and costs less than many other similar systems.  Giuseppe Avagliano Marketing Director Chose Smartlook Smartlook seems smoother than Hotjar and it also offers more customizable options such as events and funnels.  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.  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 …  Shane McCallum Director of Product Chose Smartlook Far better bang for your buck. |
