Amplitude Analytics vs. Woopra

I would highly recommend Amplitude to people in the product and business analytics domains who have a need for deep, data-driven insights into customer behavior, accessible in a self-service platform. Amplitude stands out in its comprehensiveness and flexibility; once events are implemented, there are a multitude of options to combine, track, form journeys, and dive deeper into user behavior. Though the barrier for entry is a little bit steep, Amplitude is more friendly to non-technical users than other business insight platforms, without compromising the effectiveness of the analysis tools. Amplitude may not be best suited for web marketing analytics - traffic, page views, etc - since it is more focused on full-platform product analytics.

We have only used it on web applications so I would recommend it in that case. Deploy has been pretty straightforward. Usage is very intuitive so if you are looking for an analytics product to implement fast and easy (for example for a startup or when starting a project) it is also a good scenario to recommend Woopra. The free tier has been pretty useful to us.

• It provides me great answers about my critical questionnaire, by which I can easily explore behavioral data across any chart, persona, and cohort that are simple and intuitive to understand as they have made easy segmentation.
• It offers its services for SQL queries due to which I have reduced the workload and save the time that was spent in finding out the technical aspects.
• It is user-friendly and easy to use.

Incentivized

• Woopra does a great job showing you stats for specific site visitors.
• The install and setup process is very easy and intuitive.
• Woopra does a fantastic job showing the technology being used my our visitors.
• I love Woopra's ability to show geographically where a user is located.

• Some more clarity and examples of implementation with GDPR in mind
• Some segregation inside user properties can be difficult to implement
• Splicing information inside funnels could be more intuitive
• User support for the cheaper tiers is hard to access
• Pricing transparency really needs to be improved

• The interface is not set up well for analysis.
• The native developers I worked with did not like that the SDK has not been updated in a few years.
• The interface does not make tools, such as building segments and creating filters, very intuitive.

Great product Good value for the cost/initiate Support docs and FAQs are great - they limit the necessity of reaching out to in-person support. So when you do call them ... it is for a legit question/issue, no just a "where is it" or a "how to I do xyz123?"

We just really like the tool. There are lots of us using it internally... from Product, to marketing, to customer service, to optimization team, to traffic acquisition, to Executives. Really helps us answer questions about how well things are going, and what is not going well.

It's a fairly straightforward platform that's beginner friendly. The biggest usability hurdle is most often created by your own team, as it's imperative to know what event sources are being sent to Amplitude and what those event names are. Within being properly onboarded by a team member it can be hard to get started using Amplitude. It takes time to understand what data your company may be sending to the product, the naming conventions of events (especially if there are old or deprecated events names

The UI and reports are great overall. Creating reports just requires a few too many screens and clicks. Also dashboard tiles can't be resized. Both of these are easy items that are being addressed

Alway up and running, or if there is a problem we can get back in the game right away. The reliability was a big selling point for me, and it was true when this company got it. Rollouts can be tough, but this was pretty seamless. Good support throughout the process, good documentation to handle questions/tips

No issues, problems, or negative remarks from us!! We had a plan, vendor support was rock solid, our data folks have experience, OCM supported as needed, and we got the rollout done on time, on budget, and with only minor hiccups. SInce the rollout, most of us have already forgotten the hiccups and generally speak highly of the product

I haven't used the Amplitude support other than their training docs so I can't speak too much to the in-person support but the docs are serviceable. Nothing too crazy but between the user tips, email notifications, and the decent number of docs I was able to get the support I needed to ramp up on the tool.

Team was always responsive and helpful with special use cases.

Virtual Not bad considering the timeframe and turnaround. The biggest benefit was for my end-users to hear a voice (other than mine/ours! LOL) telling them about the new features and capabilities. The in-person training was really good for having an expert that knows the answers and could refer to past experiences, problems, solutions. THey were a great resource to ease the transition ... basically a "you are gonna be okay with this change ... you got this etc.!" kinda vibe

Good enough to get strong baseline. I always make sure our our users go to and/or focus on the vebndor-provided support docs rather than any formal training. Our instructors come and go, but written policy and how-to docs live much longer in a corporate setting. That said, the online training is sufficient. I like that the training curric is stacked and progressive.

My team members all have background as data analysts, so Amp was pretty easy to for them. There was sufficient online training available. We also used the available support documents. The actual rollout went well. We did significant testing beforehand. We did a phased rollout, with partial silent rollout (part of OCM's plan) for the smallest line of business. THe silent one was "silent" b/c it was done without fanfare or public notices ... it was just a "we're doing some things, it wont impact your work or workday

Compared to other products, the support was a small effort. We only had part time contributions from a product management intern and front end developer.

Amplitude Analytics is a robust platform that can take your data reporting beyond what's currently capable in GA. Heap is a great intermediate tool, that takes data analysis a step further and is an excellent product in it's own right. Mixpanel is the most comparable both have very similar reporting/dashboarding functionality. Amplitude can often be preferred by product and data engineering teams for it's ease of setup and impressive analytics displays.

Woopra's user interface is far superior than any of the competition. I found other analytics software to be clunky and hard to use. With Woopra, I always know exactly where to go in the app to get the results I'm looking for. This saves me valuable time; in the end time is money

Like all the other grades, it was mostly an easy implementation ... we have experience people, the rollout in general is well planned, and the vendor was very supportive

• Helped us determine actions that lead to an increase in install to sign up conversion
• Helped us determine actions that lead to drop off while users invest
• Helped us determine actions taken by paying users, increasing conversion of non-paying users to paid users

Incentivized

• Really helped us begin to segment our users based on their engagement and retention.
• Helped increase retention by about 1.5% after about 5 months of implementation (don't shoot the messenger if your team can't implement that quickly).
• I felt like it had great potential to create a pipeline between sales and the CSM, but I had trouble getting the sales team to implement it properly as they had their noses deep in calls and emails (they struggle entering notes in SalesForces as well, so it's more a company specific problem).
