"Easy Setup, But Mobile Integration Needs Improvement"
4/5
What do you like best about Pendo?

I like that Pendo is a source of truth for the data I collect about my users. It's incredibly helpful for monitoring analytics in my app and helps me figure out when things are crashing or spiking based on the tracked events. The initial setup of Pendo was super easy with just a snippet installation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pendo?

I have trouble with mobile track events, with the mobile SDK, and getting fully set up to maximize all of the functions that Pendo has to offer. Sometimes, when the app updates, I need to re-capture each screen of the entire app, which is challenging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I have used the product for 4 years and have made a career out of it. Great tool!"
4/5
What do you like best about Pendo?

Pendo has great people and a good tool. I think they do a solid job iterating and improving, but I have my workflows I wish I could get more attention on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pendo?

I don't use Pendo for the most standard use cases, so my hopes and dreams aren't a priority for their roadmap. That hasn't blocked me from providing a lot of value, though. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Powerful In-App Guidance & Analytics, but Pricing and Setup Can Feel Overwhelming"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Pendo?

Having in-app guidance, robust analytics, session replays, and feedback tools all in one platform also provides deep visibility into how users actually experience the product, so it’s easier to understand what’s working and where people may be getting stuck. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pendo?

The pricing is a bit expensive. Also, the interface and initial setup process overwhelming at first, with a steeper learning curve compared with simpler alternatives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Pendo for tagging features for pages, guides, and metrics. I appreciate how it helps me gain user experience information to aid in product feedback, research, and other goal setting. What I like most about Pendo is its ease of use, adaptability, and customizations, which save me time and create efficiencies. The initial setup was also very easy.

"Empowers User Insights, Easy Setup but Time-Consuming"
5/5

I love using Pendo for user engagements through guides, user analytics, and AI analytics. It gives us visibility into our user data and allows us to interact with customers in-app. I really like the easy access to data analytics that Pendo provides, as it helps us make better decisions and report on what our users are doing, which supports upsell and stickiness. Additionally, the initial setup of Pendo was easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pendo?

I would love to have easier access to analyze Meta data and make track events simpler to set up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Feature-Rich but Needs HTML Knowledge"
5/5
What do you like best about Pendo?

I like that Pendo is rich with features, allowing me to take both a 5000 foot view and a 10 foot view on usage, which includes supporting user data and session replays. I appreciate the real-time insights into system and feature usage that Pendo provides. The basic reporting helps us understand what areas of the software employees and partners are using, and the feature-specific data shows if recent projects are successfully used and adopted. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pendo?

Pendo is more than the no-code solution they claim for Salesforce. Implementing Pendo and managing it requires someone that has more than a basic knowledge of HTML. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Data-Driven Insights with Room for UI Improvements"
4/5
What do you like best about Pendo?

I like that Pendo helps us understand how much people like our product or application and provides insights on how we can improve. The dashboard is great because I can see all the stats at once without having to do anything special. Everything is ready when I log in, which is really convenient. Furthermore, the documentation is well diversified and easy to use, making it simple to set up the API and get started without any problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pendo?

The color scheme and theme in Pendo could use more customization options. I think it should be in the user's control to change the theme as per their preference, like allowing for a light or dark mode. Some parts of the interface feel flat and having the ability for more personalization would improve the user experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Empowers Marketing with Intuitive Onboarding Tools"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Pendo?

I find Pendo incredibly useful for lifecycle marketing and onboarding. It effectively updates users on announcements and new features while teaching them how to use the product. The ease of use with guides, particularly for setting up and deploying them, stands out to me. It's great to be able to pop in and create a pop-up or light box without having to go through engineering. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pendo?

I wish there were more customization options, particularly in mobile. It would be awesome if we had as many customization options in mobile as we do for desktop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
