HowdyGo - Interactive Product Demos

What do you like best about the product?

HowdyGo is an incredibly easy system to use for recording demos and facilitating presentations. Our company for years was using an internal test environment that would go down due to updates - that's when we reached out to HowdyGo for a professional demo system. I can record our entire website flow and then edit it down in HowdyGo. What I love is the editing tools in HowdyGo make it easy to remove, change, or edit parts of a page. They also continue to add new features so it is always getting better!

Our company uses HowdyGo ever day with presentations or sharing our demos with partners. These demos have text that HowdyGo allows you to add which walk the user through our website. It has been so easy to use for our sales calls or add to our after-call emails with links to our interactive HowdyGo demos for our potential partners.

Customer support is also fantastic! The HowdyGo reps requently have reached out to ask about our experience. More importantly - I requested a feature that was implemented within a few weeks. I was amazed at their response to my feedback and how quickly they took action. That new feature (being able to delete elements) has made our demos so much better than before!

Overall, I can't see us engaging with new partners or sales teams as effectively without using HowdyGo.

What do you dislike about the product?

Sometimes it will not record the loading screens on our webpages. I am unsure if this is due to our website or their system, but there has been a time when I wanted to record the loading page, and it did not record.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

HowdyGo solved our problem of providing a stable demo tool. Previously, we used a test environement that was also going down or showing information about WIP features we didn't want to show clients. HowdyGo is not only a fantastic tool for providing a demo, but the customization tools really allow us to take the demos to the next level.

What do you like best about the product?

We trialed several interactive demo tools, but ultimately chose HowdyGo for the following reasons:

- It was the only product that accurately captured operations on Salesforce and AppExchange applications.

- Despite capturing in HTML format, it can still replay dynamic actions like drag-and-drop using video.

- It offers outstanding cost performance.

What do you dislike about the product?

We’d love to see future enhancements in annotation editing and user management features.
The HowdyGo development team is open to hearing new feature ideas, which we really appreciate.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

HowdyGo is incredibly helpful in scenarios where we need to show users how to use our application, such as:

- Publishing actual step-by-step guides on our manual site.

- Sharing instructions with customers to resolve issues via customer support.

- Introducing new features and demonstrating how to use them in release announcements.

What do you like best about the product?

I like that I can use HowdyGo in many aspect of my business. I can use it to build demos, I can use it to build engaging content and I can use it for training and knowledge base article. All in one tool creating artefacts that I can reuse.

Setup was easy and customer support is excellent. I use HowdyGo almost everyday and my team is starting to use it as well.

What do you dislike about the product?

I have not found any downside of using HowdyGo. I have a small list of improvements I would like them to make to bring the application to the next level but seriously nothing to complain about.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

As previously stated, I can use it to build sales demos, I can use it to build engaging content and I can use it for training and knowledge base article.

What do you like best about the product?

Very easy to sign up, and the free trial period helps to prove how easy it is to generate your first interactive demo in minutes. Support has been great, a few times when I had question the team immediately invited me to a Zoom call so they can resolve my issue immediately. Very impressed!

What do you dislike about the product?

The next tier (Pro) is quite steep if you have HowdyGo as one of the many tools for your product activation. But I imagine if you use it extensively and for different purposes (acquisition, activation, account expansion, etc.) the ROI will speak for itself.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

HowdyGo enable us to show our complex product (a structural engineering tool) without gating it.

What do you like best about the product?

Awesome and straightforward tool. Attractive pricing vs. feature set /value for money). Very responsive and helpful in-app support. Highly recommended!

What do you dislike about the product?

No support for mobile apps, but the team provided me with an acceptable workaround and helped optimize the mobile part of the demo.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Demos for live meeting and written sales dialogues, embedded demos for public websites
