Insightful User Tracking with Easy Setup
What do you like best about the product?
I find tremendous value in using PostHog to track user behavior and error reporting on my website. It offers me a profound understanding of how users interact with the site and highlights where errors occur, specifically issues I might not have detected on my own machine, such as styling problems. The Session replay (recordings) feature is particularly outstanding as it provides clear insights into user activity on the website. This feature has allowed me to observe how users navigate through the checkout funnel, which inspired me to redesign it for a more user-friendly experience. The ease of the initial setup of PostHog is another positive aspect I appreciate. Additionally, I am very fond of their homepage and am enthusiastic enough to have already shared it with my colleagues. The overall experience is so positive that I would give it a rating of 10 out of 10 when recommending it to friends or colleagues.

Great for User Analytics, But Integration Hiccups
What do you like best about the product?
I find the UI and logo of PostHog very cute, which enhances my overall user experience. I also appreciate the availability of many products within PostHog that I can use together, providing me with a cohesive toolset for my analytics needs. It's convenient to have all functionalities accessible in a single place, making my workflow more streamlined and efficient. Additionally, I found the initial setup of PostHog pretty easy, which made onboarding with the software a smooth process.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find connecting PostHog with Snowflake to be problematic. Despite multiple attempts, the warehouse connection often fails due to errors. The errors I encounter lack clear explanations, making troubleshooting difficult. Even after successfully establishing a connection, the import process fails repeatedly, which is frustrating.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use PostHog to analyze user behaviors, track how many users visit my site, and identify which features perform well, providing a single platform to view all analytics seamlessly.
Turning a confusing and complex process of web analytics, into a clear and easy one.
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about PostHog is it's ability to automatically collect the majority of relevant analytics information without having to manually identify each event/item of interest. This is not the case with the main player in the space, Google Analytics.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that we were not able to add domain whitelisting on our plan without paying for the additional cost of a proxy. While the free tier is quite generous, the very first paid tier is not accessible to early bootstrapped projects at $250.00/month.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With very little effort, we have been able to migrate away from Google Analytics. Our pain-point with Google Analytics is that we needed to implement the capture of analytics events and items in a manual way. This means that any new additions to our web app, we needed to consider all of the analytics implications and build it in. Posthog solves this with their ability to automatically capture the majority of the events and items that we're interested in immediately, including the console logs as well.
Easy-to-Use Analytics with a Smooth Setup
What do you like best about the product?
I find PostHog to be incredibly easy to use, which greatly enhances my experience with the platform. This ease of use makes the initial setup straightforward and efficient, a crucial advantage when integrating analytics tools. The simplicity of the interface supports seamless tracking of user activities, which is vital for conducting thorough analytics. This user-friendly nature of PostHog enables me to focus more on analysis rather than grappling with complex configurations, allowing my workflow to remain smooth and efficient. Additionally, I find that PostHog seamlessly complements my existing software, enhancing my team's efficiency by integrating effortlessly into our established ecosystem.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find the video aspect of the PostHog dashboard could be improved. It doesn't fully meet my expectations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use PostHog to track users and find it easy to use, which helps streamline our analytics processes.
User-Friendly Analytics with Lightning-Fast Setup
What do you like best about the product?
I love how PostHog has simplified my workflow with its ability to provide insightful analytics on user actions across various hosted pages within our app. The feature to identify top viewed pages and detect errors or bugs is particularly invaluable, saving me a significant amount of work and enabling a deeper understanding of user behavior. I'm impressed by how quick and easy it was to set up PostHog—it took me just 5 minutes to have it up and running, which is a testament to its user-friendliness. The UI is something I adore; it is straightforward and easy to navigate, making my tasks more efficient. Being AI-first is another standout aspect of PostHog that I love. I found the ability to use the MCP server in conjunction with Claude to create custom dashboards without needing to access the website to be incredibly innovative and useful for our team's specific needs. Switching from Sentry and other basic solutions to PostHog was a great choice because PostHog integrates all necessary functionalities seamlessly, offering a comprehensive analytics solution. The straightforward setup, taking less than 10 minutes, and the additional 10 minutes to integrate MCP, made the transition smooth and seamless.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is an annoying quick start guide in PostHog that remains sticky and won't go away. When I first installed PostHog, I activated all features because I wasn't sure which ones would be useful. After realizing that our app is still in beta and we didn't need all the features, I disabled the unnecessary ones. However, the quick start guide persists, asking me to finish the rest of the setup, which I don't want to complete. There's no way to hide it, making the experience slightly counterintuitive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use PostHog to gain insights and analytics on user actions, detect errors, and easily set up dashboards, streamlining my workflow and improving efficiency.
Highly Trustable, Needs Easier GDPR Compliance
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate that PostHog provides reliable analytics that I find more trustable than Google's offerings. I am impressed by the brand ethos of PostHog; it feels down to earth and honest. This transparency and authenticity in brand identity resonate strongly with me, offering a sense of trust and reliability.
What do you dislike about the product?
I am frustrated with PostHog due to two significant issues. Firstly, the integration process to fully comply with GDPR is cumbersome. There isn't a clear and simple setup that utilizes local storage and flags to work seamlessly with cookie banners. Additionally, there is a lack of a framework surrounding cookie banners, which would simplify this process significantly. Secondly, the self-hosting option via Docker could be improved. It currently requires multiple third-party setups with Postgres as the database. A straightforward, single-image deployment would greatly enhance its usability.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I trust PostHog's analytics more than Google, enhancing our data reliability despite some setup challenges.
Effortless to Use with Outstanding Support
What do you like best about the product?
It's the ease of use and the way the whole product and customer support communication is handled.
What do you dislike about the product?
At this point, I'm completely satisfied.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps me check web and product analytics without cookies.
