Retroactive Data, Simple Interface, Powerful Analytics
What do you like best about the product?
The obvious - retroactive data. This is their selling point, really. From the moment the snippet is installed on-site, you can retroactively tag nearly any event imaginable. In an organization that is more reactive than proactive, this is extremely powerful.
Also nice - snapshot elements to capture metadata, flexible SQL-based reporting, nice third-party vendor integrations, and a decent collection of charts that can be used for color in static reporting and executive summaries.

What do you dislike about the product?
Additional cost for owning data and export to a database. This is frustrating when the upfront cost is already so high.
Inability to create custom, tabular reports in-platform. Very limited to the number of dimensions one can use and forget about breaking these out by date in any useful way. This platform was designed for use in a database-to-BI tool environment, but leaves out the lay analyst who still uses tabular report exports in Excel. Stepping back a little would open up the target market immensely for Heap.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Primarily, it has enabled me to give internal marketing teams the data they want without having to teach them to proactively ask for event tagging. It has also allowed to me to bypass certain organizational limitations, such as easy metadata collection from form fields.
We've been able to really drill down into the content that users are engaging with and how those users are continuing to engage with and convert on the site after the fact. Heap helps to tie the user journey together.

Sr. Marketing Manager
What do you like best about the product?
I like that I can look at funnel metrics and that it is easily integrated with our site. I also like the ability to create my own events using the event visualizer.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like how things are organized. I think it's tough to find my reporting. I also don't like how the new visuals look now.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Problems im solving is understanding where the conversion drop-of is within the sign-up flow. I can understand what page is doing the best/worst in converting members.
Great Product - Not That Intuitive, Though
What do you like best about the product?
I love that I can layer on different types of segments (behavioral, acquisition source, etc.) over a funnel to really see how different types of users interact with our product and funnel. This has resulted in numerous specific optimizations for only certain types of traffic. It has been immensely beneficial.
What do you dislike about the product?
I was sort of just thrown into Heap here at work so I had to Google how to do a lot of the things I wanted to do. Our shared heap definitions have grown immensely and therefore finding things that mean the thing I'm looking for has grown increasingly difficult. Some way to either upkeep on definitions that are no longer used (based on whether they are firing any longer or if their reports are being viewed) would be a big help to keep our definitions clean.
Also, although I believe there was an attempt to walk users through the new "Paths", I think a webinar going over this for users would probably have been a better way to go. Or some sort of interactive tutorial. Personally, I understand it because I use Google Analytics, but it was sort of tossed in there as a new feature without much information other than an email from my recollection.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We really need to optimize our top of funnel acquisition as we are in a market that is very competitive (auto insurance). So getting users to sign up in the most efficient way possible is key. Thanks to Heap, we saw a significant drop at our quote screen which led us to redesign it. After redesign, our quote acceptance rate more than doubled.
Very strong tool, but also reliant on HTML
What do you like best about the product?
I love the retroactive data Heap can provide once you tag events. I also love the ability to create reports and dashboards very easily and in many different forms. The UI is also pretty straightforward
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like the fact that it relies on the HTML on the page to track events - considering if you make small changes you are essentially on the hook for updating the events in HEAP.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Just understanding how folks are interacting with our website and the key pages on it. Also tracking conversion paths and funnels.
The best analytics services we've found yet
What do you like best about the product?
Intuitive interface and smart event tracking makes this the most complete and easy to use analytics platform we've used. It's simple to create and track events and the cached data means you can see what's been happening before you realized you should be looking at it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Seems like they have some internal alignment issues. We spent a few months going back and forth with a BDR who thought we weren't paying them (we wer'e) and was trying to 10x what we were paying for a marginal increase in utility in the product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We can track all the activity of our users and get a better understanding of what's going on the platform. Our tech team also find the user tracking useful for identifying bugs.
Heap is a powerful tool for B2B business
What do you like best about the product?
The killer feature in Heap that it's collects all events on a page and you don't need to spend time on events setup. In such platforms as Google Analytics or Amplitude, you need to spend a lot of time defining the events and sometimes you add new buttons or change the UX and forget to add them to analytics. So there is no way to collect events data retrospectively. But Heap can do this!
Collection of all data totally removes the pain of monitoring the status of analytic setup.
I love Heap's clear UX design, great work!

What do you dislike about the product?
I am fully satisfied with existing functionality, I only have feature requests: it would be great to have a screen recording.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Heap helps me to analyze product feature usage, funnels and monitor the retention.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you have B2B business that's the right tool to use. I would recommend to use Heap + FullStory - that's a super powerful bundle!
