Rachel Harrison, UX & CRO Analyst at Epiphany Search:
I really like Hotjar for its functionality. But other tools I have used in the past had the ability to automatically set up heatmaps on all of the pages, unlike Hotjar. In my opinion, this is the main disadvantage of Hotjar.
Chris Gomez, Director of Product Marketing at Passare:
Hotjar gave us insights we never had before. Heatmaps from Hotjar provide an excellent overview to dig deeper into the product. Recording user sessions with Hotjar were the most helpful for us. Yes, Hotjar has disadvantages, but they are minor.
Olaf Schaum, Founder at LiveSociety:
I don't like that Hotjar doesn't have direct integration with Google Analytics. Hotjar also doesn't have a mobile version of the dashboard. These are the main cons of Hotjar I noticed. Also, the live user feedback tool at Hotjar is a fantastic option.
Ryan Gogats, Senior Product Manager at Harmonic Insurance:
I like Mouseflow because of its easy initial configuration and easy setup of heatmaps. I also noticed a responsive customer service team at Mouseflow. But something about Mouseflow I don't like, and this is a feedback module that doesn't work as intended with trigger behavior.
Jeff Smith, Owner Principal at Montana SEO Services:
Mouseflow does a great job creating fantastic Heat Maps. Moreover, in the area of the heat maps, Mouseflow can handle A/B testing. This is what I like about Mouseflow.
Maryna N, Executive in Marketing at Marketing and Advertising Company:
In Mouseflow, I like reliable screen recording and the ability to filter recorded sessions by many variables. But Mouseflow provides clunky screen recording on mobile devices. That is what I don't like about Mouseflow.
