"All-in-One Analytics Powerhouse for Solo Founders"
What do you like best about PostHog?

I appreciate the session replay feature and how seamlessly it integrates with other analytics tools. The free tier is impressively generous, providing a comprehensive solution for managing user experience, product analytics, and developer insights. As a solo founder, having all these capabilities in one place is truly invaluable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PostHog?

It's a minor thing, but it's a little difficult to get the most out of the dashboards without a lot of learning / config, however the docs seem to be really good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Powerful User Insights, Needs Clearer Documentation"
What do you like best about PostHog?

I like PostHog most for its user recording feature. It was quite a revelation because I didn't even realize I could do that. The user recordings are super useful, allowing me to see what users do and click on, and helping me understand where they're confused. The analytics component is also good enough for my needs, helping me understand my customers and what issues they face when using my product. I think it's nice for a language learning product that's still small. Overall, I find these features helpful in achieving my goals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PostHog?

I'm really confused about user recordings not being consistent. If I see seven unique visitors, I expect seven recordings, but that's not happening. I've been searching on Google and asking PostHog's support but still don't get it. The explanation about merging didn't really clear it up because I think every session should be recorded. Also, I'm not sure how to bulk delete user recordings right now. I dont see any unique button I can click to delete that shows up when I select all the recordings.

"Actionable Insights Made Easy with PostHog"
What do you like best about PostHog?

PostHog makes it remarkably simple to gain a clear understanding of real user behavior. The session replays and heatmaps offer vivid, visual insights into how users move through the product, allowing us to quickly spot friction points and usability challenges.

The platform is straightforward to implement and requires minimal effort to get started, which has made adoption across our team easy. I also value how effortlessly it tracks user interactions including clicks, page views, form submissions, and custom events all within a single platform.

Thanks to its extensive features and intuitive workflows, we rely on PostHog regularly for both everyday monitoring and more in depth analysis. This powerful blend of usability, comprehensive features, and both qualitative and quantitative insights enables us to make product decisions that are more data driven and actionable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PostHog?

There is a bit of a learning curve at the beginning, especially when exploring some of the more advanced features. However, once you get familiar with the platform, it becomes much easier to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I found PostHog to be very easy to integrate and easy to understand all key metrics for my app."
What do you like best about PostHog?

I was really impressed with how easily I could integrate Posthog into my Nextjs project. The user interface of Posthog is top-notch and it's quite intuitive to navigate through all the features.

One of the main reasons I chose Posthog is because of its extensive features and reasonable pricing. Currently, I am utilizing its Web Analytics and session replay capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PostHog?

I couldn't find any reason to dislike PostHog. If I come across anything in the future, I will make sure to share it on other social media channels.. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Valuable Product Analytics with Room for UI Improvement"
What do you like best about PostHog?

I really appreciate the survey tool and recordings feature in PostHog as a user experience designer and researcher. It's incredibly easy to gather user feedback, which I can then seamlessly integrate into my projects. The survey tool is versatile, allowing me to conduct general NPS surveys or target specific URLs with customizable options for appearance and timing, greatly enhancing its utility. Being able to use surveys to have users sign up for additional interviews further extends its functionality. I also find the recordings feature extremely valuable, as it allows me to observe user interactions and identify areas for user experience improvements, making PostHog an indispensable tool for understanding and enhancing product analytics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PostHog?

I find the dashboarding and setup in PostHog a bit tricky, making it challenging for our team to ensure data accuracy. Despite the appealing branding and charming hedgehog mascot, the underlying user interface can become quite confusing when all embellishments are removed. Additionally, the initial setup process was not straightforward; it has taken months, and my team is still working on it. This complexity has been a hurdle in our integration workflow.

"Highly Customizable Analytics, But Frequent Crashes Disrupt Experience"
What do you like best about PostHog?

One of the standout features is the ability to customize our Dashboard to fit our specific software requirements. This flexibility lets us track not only events but also cohorts, and it includes heat maps, which are particularly useful. Another great aspect is that it provides access to all the APIs through SWAGGER. Overall, the platform is highly adaptable, allowing us to tailor analytics to suit our needs.

Once you have done all setup it can be easy to navigate through the platform.

The customer support is extremely helpful and quick in response. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PostHog?

The frequent crashes during loading can be quite irritating at times, and I also receive a large number of incident emails. This makes me think that there are many crashes occurring, although they do seem to get fixed periodically.

For someone who is implementing Analytics first time it can be a little overwhelming as events and all can be a little too much and might not be easy for to integrate for first time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Top-Notch UI/UX and Powerful Session Replay"
What do you like best about PostHog?

The UI and UX of the website is top-notch and it's easy to navigate. The Session Replay feature was easy to implement in the iOS SDK. I also like the amount and depth of features that PostHog offers. We only tried Session Replay for now and it works great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PostHog?

Implementing Session Replay masking for labels on iOS 26 wasn't that straightforward. I'm aware the iOS SDK mentions buggy behavior because of technical changes in SwiftUI. This is the only problem I faced with PostHog. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Comprehensive Analytics with a User-Friendly Approach"
What do you like best about PostHog?

I use PostHog for my complete product analytics to understand customer interactions like clicks, and it offers a ton of features. It simplifies analytics by handling event processing, allowing us to view data in various forms like charts and diagrams without building them manually. I particularly like PostHog’s product analytics, which tracks everything and serves as a good replacement for Google Analytics, providing all the crucial data without the need for a consent banner. Additionally, the feedback and feature flags make it easy to gather user feedback or ratings. I enjoy the casual, cool style and tone of the team at PostHog; they have jokes and aren't forceful. Also, they provide comprehensive documentation on everything someone might need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PostHog?

Nothing so far - it meets my needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Straightforward Onboarding, Complex Navigation"
What do you like best about PostHog?

I use PostHog for analytics on my product, specifically for session replays and capturing evidence on our open source package. I appreciate how the session replay feature helps us understand how users actually interact with our product and identify bugs or UI elements that may not be used as intended. The replays make it easy to see what users are doing on our platform, which is straightforward and insightful. Additionally, the initial setup and onboarding with PostHog were pretty easy and straightforward, which I find quite beneficial. There really isn't another solution that combines this ease of setup with a generous feature set. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PostHog?

The main feedback I have is that the PostHog platform is quite complex. I use it maybe once a week, and every time it takes me a while to figure out where the dashboards are. It's just frustrating because I end up losing a couple of seconds or minutes just trying to find where the data lives. There's just so much going on that I don't really need, and it frustrates me a bit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"User-Friendly Interface & Budget/Startup-Friendly, some API and MCP Setup Issues"
What do you like best about PostHog?

Peak is a very user-friendly platform, and I find it much easier to understand compared to Amplitude. I also appreciate the company culture. What stands out most for me is how budget-friendly it is—I haven't spent a single dollar so far, yet we've managed to set up a lot. I use it daily to monitor our web analytics, and right now I'm learning how to build out the entire product analytics structure for our product. Another feature I like is the ability to integrate with Stripe and simultaneously track our LLM's costs. It's also reassuring that Posthog provides customer support from people with technical expertise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PostHog?

Had problems setting up the API and MCP. Lost at first with the autocapture and the 100+ properties, but found my way to understand them after docs reading and talking with Max <3 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
