Very versatile and powerful analytics tool all-in-one, once you know how to set it up!
What do you like best about the product?
- Live recordings
- A/B tests (experiments)
- The launchpad from which you can select actions no-code
- heatmaps
- design - it's quite beautiful and a good tool for viewing analytics
-> all-in-one solution, without needing to install extras like hotjar
Also, the trackers are quite aggressive (sophisticated).

What do you dislike about the product?
- Setup for more complicated tasks is challenging as the docs are yet incomplete. For example, several config options in the initialisation function are not explained anywhere in the docs (e.g. methods for adjusting GDPR). In any case, the docs should contain more examples through code than written explanations.
- No warning panel for experiments and other features before stopping/deleting them. I once thought stop meant pause and killed my entire experiment (wasn't too tragic as it hadn't fully started yet)

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Validating design and product hypothesis, measuring out conversion funnel, quantitative and qualitative ways to analyse a customer
Post has is a complete product experience tool. It was more robust than what I was expecting.
What do you like best about the product?
Auto capture and that you have an experimental feature. That really is the full stack and everything you would need to improve your product.
What do you dislike about the product?
Implementation docs could have been a little more user friendly and cleaner.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Giving us visibility into user problems.
Great for startups and agencies
What do you like best about the product?
PostHog was easy to set up and immediately started tracking events and contact data. We love the new screen recordings feature and how it auto-captures events without us setting up the telemetry - no code changes are needed. It's as simple as point and click - we use the "Inspect element" feature to define an event and then navigate to the "Live feed" to see if the events we just defined are being tracked correctly.
What do you dislike about the product?
The screen recordings is a fantastic new feature, but we experienced a few bugs. Hoping to see it polished as the rest of the platform in the coming weeks. Apart from that, the reporting feature needs some more types of graphs and features to replace the other tools we use entirely.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Two things we use Posthog for as an early-stage startup:
1. Easy access to feature utilisation data without requiring colossal development effort and time.
2. Observe how our users interact with our app and see where the significant dropoffs are, and improve the flow.

Looks like a good alternative too GA
What do you like best about the product?
I like the autoevents.
this looks quite usefull.
Sending in you own events seams quite easy as well.
The fact that there is support for A/B testing, heatmaps and session replays is awsome

What do you dislike about the product?
The reporting is a bit lack luster.
This might be a user problem, Im not that well versed using this tool.
But i find it hard to find reports on events that inclide event parameters

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The fact that this can be self hosted, and that the data can be stored in Europe is a big pluss comapring it with GA, where you have no controll over where the acuall data is stored.
Great customer insights - up and running in 10min
What do you like best about the product?
Super easy to setup custom dashboard and build insights based what you are currently monitoring in your web application.
It's great to have auto-capture running. Then when you get more experience you can start to setup custom events and even look at customer behaviour in retrospect.
You can do many tests and monitoring without talking to a developer to set up your analytics.

What do you dislike about the product?
Building insights can be tricky and the amount of graphs you can build is quite limited.
Fx. I'd like to display vertical histograms, but only have horisontal barcharts to display. A bit annoying.
Also, you need to careful when you build you funnels. You can easily end up using the wrong data, unintentionally.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We want to move away from Google Analytics as our primary analytics tool. And PostHog offers a great way to build dashboards and insights that helps monitor our MTMM. Also, the feature flags work great. Experiments look promising, even though we haven't had time to test it yet.
Posthog gives me a mix of excitement and wanting for more
What do you like best about the product?
1. Interface is very nice
2. Integration is simple enough
3. I can share dashboards by link (without anyone having to login)
4. Customer support answered relatively quickly.

What do you dislike about the product?
1. I'm unable to quickly delete events
2. I'm unable to share "Live events" (or have "Live events" as a separate dashboard and then share the dashboard)
3. Number of features can be a bit overwhelming and I feel too scared to even start exploring.
4. Excluding events by attributes isn't working consistently.
5. Can't click on "N persons" in Funnel view to see the list of people in it.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our product are software solutions for other companies developed on our AI platform. Posthog allows us to share KPI data with our clients through anonymous dashboard, without us having to developing (and maintain) things manually.
Best in event collection
What do you like best about the product?
App marketplace! Posthog has a unique place in the market with an open developer product. Easy implementation. Great feature set. App UI is super intuitive for technical and non-technical users.
What do you dislike about the product?
I've been a user for over a year now, having implemented it for 3 different companies and I have been unable to find problems with the product that I wasn't able to solve with a little help from their support or documentaiton.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Event collection. Product analytics. Identity resolution. Data integration/aggregations among various systems.
All-in-one analytics suite
What do you like best about the product?
The software is very feature-rich from being able to do A/B tests, to deploying feature flags and doing lots of analysis based on their tracking. We previously used separate tools for tracking and analysis, but with Posthog we can combine all of that into one application. Also, we are actively looking into hosting Posthog on our servers to prevent the blocking of third-party scripts and maintain full control of our data.
What do you dislike about the product?
The documentation of how to use Posthog sometimes lags a bit of detail. Hence, there is some learning and discovery required. Also, the pricing model based on events doesn't come in as handy as pricing per MTUs (although this is a case-by-case decision).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Analysing user behaviour on our marketing landing pages and in our web-app. Our product team works much more data-driven and informed since deploying Posthog.
PostHog- No worries for the Logs.
What do you like best about the product?
One of the best tools for creating API and UI Logs. This is one of the best analytical tools which can be used to gather information about user behavior and application behavior too.
What do you dislike about the product?
UI part of Posthog needs some more improvement where we should get the access to extract the analytics more clearly and as per our requirement. moreover, there could be a more user-friendly approach so that it can not require more engineering to set up on-premise.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have created an app where we don't leave the scope of logging and if we implement the logs for this app that would take more time, here the post hog helped us to collect the relavant data of our App.
Great software but a couple of pain points hoping to be resolved and a little buggy at times
What do you like best about the product?
Love that it's self-hosted and having complete control of the data.
The recordings are super useful, as is the fact that events are automatically captured and setting up custom ones is really easy.

What do you dislike about the product?
Software is sometimes buggy and it fails to do certain chart types for some reason, e.g growth accounting doesn't work with filters, and I'm really missing some sort of ability to filter entire dashboards in one go.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Gives us insights into how users use our products, so we can make more informed decisions about how to prioritise new features and developments, and what get the most use.
