Incredible Insights.
What do you like best about the product?
Posthog has everything we need to help track outreach and work out where our leads are coming from and hence invest time and resources in the right places.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is little to complain about with Post hog. There are a few bugs they need to work through most frustrating one is that there is no way to filter out staff recordings by IP.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
PostHog allows us to track where our leads come from easily, review what content on our website they engaged with and how we could overall improve user experience on our website to increase conversion rates.
Compare to GA, it's very easy to use, the report and experiment is really powerful.
What do you like best about the product?
Very flexible insight and report, especially the user path and funnel, the dashboard subscribe can auto send the report weekly. Feature flag and experiments are very easy to run a AB testing.
What do you dislike about the product?
Unlike GA, Posthog cannot easily integrate with the Google search console, and the source analytics are still too weak.
SOC2 and ISO27001 are key certifications for us, but Posthog doesn't have them right now.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Group analytics is really helpful for us, since our system is multi-to-multi structure, the multiple group analytics can give more dimension to see the customer performances.
It's a useful app
What do you like best about the product?
The best part of the Posthog is Insights and recordings,
What do you dislike about the product?
Very little documentation, and tutorials, for example identifying users, was really hard
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps us to understand user behaviour and analyze their data
User Data analysis with postHog
What do you like best about the product?
Basically its a open source product for analytics that what I like most. It is very helpful to build better products by collecting users events, session recording.
What do you dislike about the product?
Something its not record customer events and session. Providing less space. Its very difficult to setup local environment.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Its help us to capture the user events by which we are analysis the user requirements clearly and can provide better products according to user need. And it also manage to maintain the logs of events done by user.
Love PostHog - best modern product analytics out there!
What do you like best about the product?
- simple event based approach conceptually.
- apps/plugins make getting data to BigQuery etc very easy.
- apps/plugins make it easy to extend things and get new goodies all the time.
- great new features all the time, really good feature velocity.
- great company and developer-centric ethos.
- autocaptures "just work" most of the time, very little risk of lost data if you forget to tag things - it's all still there in autocapture events elements.
- events, actions, cohorts are great building block concepts once you get used to them.
- posthog cloud very painless after we moved from self hosted.

What do you dislike about the product?
- a little tricky to get additional data beyond raw events into your datalake - eg persons data is very important but need to pull it yourself via persons api (tricky and complex).
- some of the visualizations a little limited or immature still, for example very limited support for just pulling tables of data into custom reports.
- limited ability for multiple breakdowns of events sliced by different properties.
- lack of data connectors beyond plugins for streaming on raw events.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Best in class product telemetry. PostHog is a crucial part in enabling us to use data to answer almost any product analytics based question.
Data and analytics you don't need a degree for
What do you like best about the product?
It is surprisingly easy to create detailed funnels and find the specific information about user behavior that you are looking for. The ability to have user recordings is fantastic and the flexibility with "space"
What do you dislike about the product?
Finding individual users can be harder than you'd expect. For example, searching by the "email" property rarely brings up the users I would expect it to. This is likely my fault but it's not all that clear compared to the rest of the solution.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Through PostHog I have quantitative and qualitative data on what the users of my software are doing and I can have that data with relative ease. Analytics that were previously difficult for me to set-up as a Product Marketer are now easily within my grasp.
Helpful tool for QA
What do you like best about the product?
I like the recordings that posthog gives us. When we are attempting to find bugs in our software, the recordings are invaluable
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the recordings stop recording if a customer becomes inactive. I wonder if posthog just doesn't realize they become active again or not.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
user journeys and being able to see what the users do in our system
Easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
Insight reports and Dashboards are easy to create. I like being able to filter recordings for specific events in order to watch users as they attempt to use our product.
What do you dislike about the product?
I've had a few issues with errors or bugs occurring. I have a few graphs that even though they are set to group Monthly, are showing weekly. When watching recordings, I would like to be able to move to the next video without having to go back to the first Recordings page.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're using PostHog to track our most important metrics and other data in order to determine friction points in our product and learn how to best optimize the user experience.
Powerful tool for data and data analysis.
What do you like best about the product?
PostHog is a powerful cloud-based tool that allows us to index and analyze a large volume of data in real time and query it. It offers great features like session recording, integration with other tools, and allows us to export data to platforms like BigQuery and Hubspot.
What do you dislike about the product?
PostHog suits my needs. But I have to mention that it is not that effective for running analytic queries on larger datasets.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
PostHog is relatively easy to use. And we use it for processing and analysis to give value to the data, with the aim of helping our clients make decisions.
It is also a very powerful software with which I can integrate it with other platforms to export data to other platforms such as Hubspot.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Accessible, it offers many functionalities and integrations to maintain data control.
Fundamentally crippled product
What do you like best about the product?
We liked the concept, but since the product cannot function at any reasonable scale, I can't say there is a lot that I like about it.
What do you dislike about the product?
We were enthusiastic early adopters of the product over one year ago, and I can now safely say it has been one of the worst business decisions we have ever made. I utterly regret trusting such an unfinished product with our valuable data. We started when the Posthog was running on Postgres. Despite throwing loads of Heroku resources at the problem, within weeks, the dashboards became unresponsive and unusable. All of the dashboard queries were timing out. They knew this, and there was hope in the new Clickhouse backed instances. They market "one-click deployment." The reality of getting the Clickhouse based Posthog cluster running is FAR from "one-click." We spent nearly a week debugging issues. After which, we were unable to transfer our data completely. We hopefully ran the migrator around 10-20 times, but it failed to copy all the data and always left huge gaps. We've spent over two months trying to get it to work. The team has appeared willing to help but has not addressed the problem. They usually say "looking into that" and then never reply. I think the product has spiraled out of control. I've burnt my fingers with this product, and I hope prospective Posthog users will avoid repeating my unfortunate error in trusting this product. Don't use this product if you value your time or your data. We've now abandoned the product and our data.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We want to monitor our product analytics, but this dream has not yet been possible. We are less productive due to trusting in Posthog. Our business performance has deteriorated due to wasting development time trying to debug Posthog.
