Easy to use, slightly too little features

What differentiates Hotjar from other similar products?

It's easy to set up a short survey and recruit participants on a specific site. You can add your events for better targeting your participants.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I don't need much of a technical skills to be able to launch a pop-up survey and decide, where, when and how it should display. You can choose a certain page (giving the url or part of it, or excluding some sites etc.), certain device, certain user behaviour - and all this using a simple dashboard. Incoming feedback option lets you receive opinions on certain features of the site on a rolling basis.

What do you dislike most about this product?

I'd like to see more question types, more advanced logic and better reports. For now you can ask 9 basic types of questions, and setting a logic is painful and limited. The reports available now are not customisable, you can just see questions one by one, but you can't cross one question with another, or filter, or see results for segments based on the answers for certain question, or even export the results as pdf.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

If you need to ask simple questions to your website visitors, HotJar is for you.

Pros

  • Security Protects
  • Reliable
  • Enables Productivity
  • Performance Enhancing
