The king for product Analytics

5.0 last year

Comments: I track the behaviour of my users in my SaaS product. Mainly funnels inside the flows of my product and segmentation between acquisition channels.

Pros:

Amazing funnels, multichannel attribution, ease of use and customization... Mixpanel offers the next step from traditional analytics services like GA4.

Cons:

There are some analytics features only accessible in Enterprise, but it is a minor inconvenience.

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: Overall, I have been very happy with my experience using Mixpanel. The ease of setup and powerful analytics have been invaluable to me in understanding my user base and making better decisions.

Pros:

Mixpanel is an incredibly powerful and user-friendly tool for tracking and analyzing user behavior. Its intuitive interface makes it easy to set up and use. Its powerful analytics provide deep insights into user behavior and allow users to make better decisions.

Cons:

Mixpanel can be expensive for some users, and its features may be too complex for some. Additionally, its customer service could use improvement.

Too complex and not so reliable

3.0 5 years ago

Pros:

We can set up lots of funnels and the visualisation always helps.

Cons:

The data is not consistant and makes our funnels a bit funky. It's a shame. Again, the pricing makes it less interested compared to other tools

Mixpanel

5.0 3 years ago

Comments: Satisfactory! Mixapanel has helped me improve my product faster with more in-depth analysis and reporting. Tracking sign-ups from the server-side for example enabled me to get more accurate hypersensitive information without the Ad-block interruptions. Mixpanel is as key for my business as it is right now. It gives me a birds-eye view of everything I need to know about customer interactions.

Pros:

The dashboard reporting is amazing! It is really easy to read and interpret even for a non-technical solo founder. With this, you can easily identify how your users are interacting with the product and how to streamline the processes. These easy-to-use reports make it easier to you to make adjustments to increase retention, engage more, and get better numbers

Cons:

Setting it up is not easy in comparison to Google Analytics! Setting up server-side or client-side, or a hybrid of both needs a level of expertise to fully leverage the benefits of the platform. You will have to watch a couple of intense YouTube Videos and go through the support articles to set up the events to get it up and running smoothly. You'll probably make a few mistakes and correct them. As a non-technical founder, it was quite frustrating setting up at the beginning but worth it eventually.

Great Analytics tool for Decision Making

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: It was a great product we use it on daily bases to track the user activity on our site and based on the research we plan our future goals.

Pros:

1. It is highly useful for those products which are based on customer service over web like hotel bookings, resume creation, etc. 2. You can easily create your own events for evey page or action and track user experience on mixpanel that where are they mostly using and viewing on their site which helps in decision making to upgrade their products. 3. You can easily access the mixpanel data form anywhere just login to mixpanel site and you can see the realtime data. 4. It is also easy to implement on the source code of products . We just need to include one script and we are able to add events where ever we like to define.

Cons:

Sometimes we face issue in profiling of the users.

Great for studying user behaviour - works perfectly with low code

5.0 last year

Comments: I was suggested Mixpanel by a friend of mine, it took me very little time to implement it on my webapp, and have most of the user-behaviour tracking features in place. The dashboard is very easy to use and this allowed me to see the results immediately. You need to know what users do on your platform or website, and this was an effortless winner.

Pros:

Mixpanel is the perfect tool to track user behaviour, analyze behavioural data and optimize your website or webapp. It integrates seamlessly with low-code platforms, such as Bubble. It offers a highly customisable set of features, and you can track basically any action on your website. Their UI is easy, setup time is very short. It's also very conveniently priced, so great for bootstrapped projects.

Cons:

In my experience, I still have to find negative sides, or features that are missing. Overall a great product, easy to implement, and conveniently priced. It's a solid solution, with not many negative sides to it.

Best decision to use Mixpanel

5.0 last year

Comments: Mixpanel is topnotch and lot to learn from it. If you start using it you will fall in love with the product to use and will help in making business decisions.

Pros:

Mixpanel is a powerful tool that helps to generate reports for various use cases like Facebook ads, Payments related, etc. I could make decisions really quickly because I could analyze on Mixpanel whichever data is required.

Cons:

It should be slightly beginner friendly. As it looks over whelming in the beginning later it is super useful.

Great analytics platform but difficult to integrate

4.0 last year

Comments: Overall it has been kind of a love and hate relationship. Again when the integration was done correctly I loved the tool but everytime I want to create a new event , I need the tech support.

Pros:

The reports and the dashboards are amazing. I can run analysis on basically everything, all the events that are happening outside and inside my software.

Cons:

It takes long time to integrate it and It's difficult to do it right. It's maybe more suitable for enterprise customers.

Powerful, comprehensive tool to track and analyze user actions and behavior patterns

4.0 5 years ago

Comments: It's a powerful analytics and marketing tool that helps you track and understand user behavior (who are your power users? which sources did you acquire them from? what's your churn rate? etc.) and make important business decisions about what you should do more of, what's working and what isn't.

Pros:

Once you set it up properly, you can use Mixpanel to track every granular user action. You can save numerous details with each event that's important for you to know such as device, browser, country, campaign UTM, etc. Mixpanel provides you with several types of reports you can analyze data with such as Insights (break down user actions to show how many share X, Y or Z detail such as campaign UTM) and Funnels (conversions between user actions). You can also use Mixpanel to send notifications (email, push, in-app) to users based on their actions. It's a very powerful analytic and marketing tool.

Cons:

Lately, Mixpanel has made quite a few UI changes. Some have been helpful, others less so. Example with a recent funnels UI change: if you add a breakdown (which breaks down each of the funnel steps by a specific detail like country), Mixpanel adds several different colored bars to the funnel, which makes it very difficult to visually see the conversions between each step. I'm not sure if they do any testing with users before launching new features or UI but their user experience would benefit a lot from it. Mixpanel also does get expensive as you track more user actions (events), but it's only powerful and useful when you track every user action, big and small. Otherwise, your analysis would be based on an incomplete picture and cause incorrect findings.

Honest Mixpanel Review

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: Mixpanel is being used by our company to generate daily client outreach and strategise our campaign. Helps us to generate alert in real time and organize weekly and monthly data more efficiently.

Pros:

I like the interface and easy navigation of the platform. The quality of insightful analytics provided in time bound manner is also very helpful. Alert generation is just amazing .

Cons:

They should focus a bit on faster loading of result of data search. Sometimes bugs comes when we try to add new alert generation parameter. Data classification and categories can be expanded for better utilization .

I use Mixpanel every single hour a day, 7 days a week and 365 days a year !

5.0 6 years ago

Comments: It's the simplest way to track app usage.

Pros:

Sign-up was too easy and the free tier is very generous. Installation was time consuming but this is mainly related to our codebase. Segment integration is working like a charm. The best app for setting up analytics for SaaS apps.

Cons:

Emailing user experience should be reimagined and made much more intuitive to match the amazing user experience of the whole app.

Basic analytics software for simple companies

4.0 5 years ago

Comments: Overall this product was easy to integrate and use, but ultimately did not provide the level of detail needed to run a successful data-driven business.

Pros:

This product provides easy-to-integrate code and some very basic metrics for your digital products. It is easy to use for beginners in data & analytics.

Cons:

There are many better visualizations and analytics metrics that could exist, but do not for the sake of simplicity. If you want to be more advanced in your ability to measure your data, look at other analytics platforms.

Better than Google Analytics

5.0 6 years ago

Comments: Unlike Google Analytics, Mixpanel tracks everything and can help you understand your customers better

Pros:

I know a company that uses Mixpanel to track everything a customer does on their platform, including where they left off and also encountered an error. Mixpanel also shows you a customer's location. You can also send targetted customer messages with Mixpanel

Cons:

You will need a software developer to implement Mixpanel on your app or website. It's not something you can set up easily.

This is a must. If a client doesn't have a tool for user-side analytics, Mixpanel's my first choice.

4.0 7 years ago

Pros:

- Insights, insights, insights - if set up correctly, you can learn a ton about users - big feature set - allows to answer complex questions about usage and users (e.g. through behavioral cohorting)

Cons:

- JQL skills required for many analytics use cases - sometimes buggy - very slow lately - I don't know what happened but the MP team must have made major changes to their tech stack - the tool has been really slow since March

Great web analytics tool

Pros:

It lets you define funnels and filters in order to track users' behavior and find used (or unused) features

Cons:

The feature-set is great, but UX-wise it has a steep learning curve when you're starting from scratch with no training

Great software once you get it going

5.0 6 years ago

Comments: With mixpanel keeping me updated on the latest statistics I can enhance my business because I make more money if I know what people want instead of getting outdated information and leaving it up to guess work.

Pros:

I like getting answers as soon as I need them it's very on the go since statistics change constantly it's nice to have them easily available. Customer service is very friendly and when you're having issues bringing up your stats they can find them easily and help you out.

Cons:

What I liked least is when going to sign up for an account for some reason their webpage makes your tablet crash repetitively and then keeps freezing up your browser so it was very hard to set up an account.

Either some issue with implementation or something else

3.0 3 years ago

Pros:

I liked that it was very intuitive to use. For example creating dashboards, product analysis (both web and mobile) and making funnels is very easy.

Cons:

There has always been an issue where we have trouble attributing events to client IDs when we bring the Mixpanel data outside of Mixpanel (for example our data warehouse). We end up having events that are missing or that are not attributed back to our clients.
