First of all, PostHog offers nearly every feature needed to track users and produce analytics. It has a ton of features at no cost.

I was successful in persuading the developers and product managers on my team to use Posthog.

Additionally, it is developer-friendly, which aided my team in incorporating PostHog into four different products. Additionally, they have an AI tool called MaxAI that is incredibly responsive and offers excellent responses in the event that we require assistance with integration or searching.

In any case, I would highly recommend this product to others because it is excellent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I want them to work on the graph user interface. Despite their best efforts, I believe there is still space for improvement in the overall user interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So many useful tools all in one place. It feels like posthog has all the utilities need for a new startup to succeed. The integrations of the features are also painless. Also, the people are so cool. Reporting a bug gets it fixed within 1-2 days. They also helped a lot with our startup credit. We use the tool very heavily to debug, get user interaction data and also tracing.

If you asked me 2 weeks ago, I would have said nothing. But recently when using `posthog/ai` we faced quite a bit of hiccup. A lot of basic functionalities were broken is the typescript sdk and we had to debug and report them ourselves. It felt like a beta soft release rather than a proper one.

As a developer myself, it was maybe the easiest thing to implement and integrate with my website. There was no hassle at all. The dashboards contain a lot of data, and I kinda like the design style they're going for. I haven't contacted their customer support yet cause there has been no need so far, and everything's quite self-explanatory. I am not using it daily till now, but in a few weeks, I know I'll need it almost every day to check my analytics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So far, nothing honestly. I would love to see if you could make the design a little more spacious-looking without compromising data visibility. Also, I'm not sure if there are any fine controls, like if I wanna particularly turn off the "session recording" feature for my site, can I do that? If not, I'd love to have this flexibility.

The two main things that I like most about PostHog is that you can easily integrate into your application and I mostly build with Flutter so I’m glad they have support for Flutter. Secondly, I enjoy the user interface, most of the features exist on other platforms like Google Analytics but it’s so much easier to set up a dashboard or funnel on PostHog!

My least favorite part about PostHog is that they don’t have an iOS app even just to view data not even edit or create dashboards. It would be nice to be able to just open the app and see the analytics real quick! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

All the product analytics features you need with generous free tier limits so your team can try any features without risk.

Allows product teams to see what is important and straightforward dashboard configuration makes it possible for non-technical departments to set up data they need to see.

Posthog allowed us to ditch multiple other analytics tools that were frustrating to use and didn't provide the complete package. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Though it is very well designed, the breadth of features means it takes some time to get familiar with and find your way through the platform.

I would have complained about the amount of links in the sidebar, but I noticed in a recent UI refresh it is possible to set your own custom shortcuts sidebar so you only see what you need once you get the hang of it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Platform is free to use for new companies or anyone who wants to try it. It's very simple to setup and works right of the shelf. It has one of the most comprehensive features and Max AI has been my go to feature now to ask any query related to user behaviour. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The tables in default views are not editable - which is frustrating sometimes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Quick to set up, glitch-free app, above average site navigation, extremely fast updates on what my website is doing and fair pricing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I was disappointed there wasn’t any easier to read dashboard. If there was a dashboard created from the user experience perspective as opposed to what’s currently in place, which is more of a technician’s perspective, I think it would be much more enjoyable to use.

My perspective is that of a business owner so I’m only using this tech out of necessity so for people like me it’d be nice if there was a friendlier interface.

For example, if you were to click on a particular aspect of a Tableau-looking dashboard, then you’d get the granular window pop-up.

That would be pretty cool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

PostHog just gets what startups like us require!

Monsha was struggling with understanding what the users actually facing. We tried many things - manual loggers, log forwardings, screen capture tools...but nothing made things easy.

As the CTO, I just loved how each tool kind of tells the story as a whole. What events users causes, how did they do it, how our LLM performed (thanks for this tool at the perfect time btw!), and many more.

Implementing or integrating those are super easy, we use PostHog religiously. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not 'dislike', but setting up some insights and connecting two different things felt a bit complicated.

Would love more configurations for the Session Replay tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

PostHog is such a comple suite of tools from everything analytics related. And it provides a bunch of other awesome things. I use it for proffesional work, and even for all of my own hobby projects. Theres just nothing that competes.

I also love the fact that its open-source as well, so its super easy to self-host if need be.

Its also a brease to set up in various environments, for example, we currently use it with a NextJS project internally and it was a brease to set set up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dont have much negatives about PostHog, the only thing i can really think of is that its a bit hard to "delete" data / events. A simple "delete" button would do wonders, But other than that + their API being really slow at times i have no negative things to say about them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
