Posthog interface is amazing and has made our analytics fun!
What do you like best about the product?
There is a ridiculous amount of functionality available right out of the box when it comes to auto-capture and session recording. Custom events and user properties will take your application to the next level.
What do you dislike about the product?
If Posthog could have more 3rd Party Integration where we could have multiple cookies/sessions simultaneously, then it would be great! Apart from this, I think the UX and onboarding can be better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having all the analytics and sessions in one place is fantastic! A feature like Custom Events and user properties is beneficial and allows us to deliver products efficiently.
Great Tool To Check User Experience
What do you like best about the product?
PostHog is great tool to see if your SaaS dashboard is user friend or not, what are the problems your users might be facing and how many users are actively using the service.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I find difficult with PostHog is its integration with Tag manager. Also, it would be great to have some more metrics like Rention rate and rage click.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
PostHog is helping us discover the vulnerabilities in our new version of dashboard.
Progressive overload for analytics
What do you like best about the product?
Sometimes with analytics, you don't know everything you'll need upfront. With Posthog I can start tracking immediately and see what I need to expand tracking into for further insights.
And example of this is user session recordings. I didn't think I needed this, but after watching a few, I learned new events I could track.

What do you dislike about the product?
I had some issues setting up use tracking with posthog, since you have to manually stop tracking a user session
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Learning what my users are doing on my app
Easy to set up, powerful building blocks
What do you like best about the product?
We recently deployed PostHog, and I've been very happy with it so far. I like the "building blocks" approach PostHog takes - you first collect data, then categorize it, then analyze it in charts, then combine charts into dashboards. It takes a little bit of work to set up, but these steps help ensure that you truly understand your data and that you're measuring the right things.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's a bit of a learning curve, and it's probably less friendly to non-technical users. It has inherent complexity similar to a spreadsheet tool: it requires you to structure and understand your data before you can report on it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
PostHog helps us pull together data from our website and apps and understand how users are discovering, using, and buying our software.
Invaluable
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to watch someone's behavior just gives so much more actionable information than analytics alone
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing so far. If I were to say anything, it would be proactively showing weak areas.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helping me see what users are actually doing without standing over someone and watching.
Wonderful bundle of very useful tools
What do you like best about the product?
Has a very generous free tier. Fast and nice to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
Had some difficulties setting up. Docs are pretty lacking and I had to hack in my own support for Next.js App Directory.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Learning more about how our users use the app, what are they doing, how are they getting stuck, and how we can improve the UX. It's definitely helped us to spot UX inefficiencies that improved the profits of our B2B partners a lot.

Great insight from PostHog, the recorder videos are great!
What do you like best about the product?
I really like how easy it is to setup and how open the company is as. The recorded videos are fantastic and enable us (a very early stage business) to quickly see where customers are getting stuck.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's nothing I don't like really. The only thing I would say is there is a lot on the dashboard and webapp. It would be good to have a bit more hand holding as part of onboarding.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It enables us to see how our customers are using our platform, improve our UX and see what features they aren't using. It's been a game changer for us and we couldn't live without it!
Self-hosted Posthog manages 3-5mio records per day
What do you like best about the product?
Basic setup was really quick and we got results really fast. Also the user recordings were captured and gave us results about some issues on site instantly.
The heatmaps shown on sites also give us information about what the users are clicking the most.

What do you dislike about the product?
As we were using self-hosted Docker instances, there were some stability issues. Resolving those issues was pretty frustrating as we couldn't find proper support. There could be a Slack channel for self-hosted users.
Self-hosted PostHog also has many components - big ecosystem. Keeping all those services running without issues is pretty hard as they depend on each other. We often didn't know where to start resolving the problem - is it the Cloudhouse, Plugin or Zookeeper instance failing?

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It gives us instant analytics about how many users gets to the product page and where in the shopping process they lefts off.
Captures all the events
What do you like best about the product?
captures all the events and allows capturing custom events
What do you dislike about the product?
Captures lots of events, so need to be specific in filtering the events required
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Capturing the trends in the data and web app
