"Valuable Product Analytics with Room for UI Improvement"
3.5/5
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.

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.

"All-in-One Solution with Rapid Feature Updates"
5/5
What do you like best about PostHog?

I really like that PostHog is one platform with so many products, and everything works together, so we don't need 20 platforms and try to connect them. It's an all-in-one solution. Their dynamic dashboard is good and the data handling and pipeline are really good, making room for a lot of custom flows. They ship new features fast, and it was very easy to get started, though it takes some time to fully integrate all features and set up everything in a logical way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PostHog?

While shipping fast is good, it sometimes feels like products are half finished, and then slows down after they are GA, almost like it becomes too much to maintain. The custom dashboard should be more dynamic and more usable public, with date ranges for example. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Comprehensive Analytics Tool with Generous Free Plan"
4.5/5
What do you like best about PostHog?

PostHog has all, or almost all, the features needed for user analytics. I particularly appreciate their very generous free plan. It's developer-friendly with good documentation and customer support. The initial setup is pretty easy, which is a big plus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PostHog?

Sometimes PostHog is quite slow on Chrome; they often do UI redesigns of the app that make it difficult to understand where features are; there are also a lot of features that you can use - so you might get overwhelmed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Highly Customizable Analytics, But Frequent Crashes Disrupt Experience"
4/5
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"
4/5
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"
5/5
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.

4.5/5

Really great product analytics platform, easy to use and get started with. Very clear well written documentation in their open handbook and plenty of example of how to track the things we need. The new AI features make it easier to build dashboards. Love the opiniated UI. Good Freemium pricing and integrations with backend for ETL. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PostHog?

Would like a few more examples of how to get started and best use cases, and prebuilt dashboards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Observability but Needs UI Improvements"
3.5/5
What do you like best about PostHog?

I find PostHog very good at observability, though I'm not sure if I'm making the most out of it right now. We used the session replays a lot, and it would be amazing to get session replays inside our M365 add-ins. The initial setup was pretty easy, and it's cool how PostHog can go through our codebase like Claude code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PostHog?

It's not user-friendly and it's hard to navigate. I don't really know how to set up a lot of things natively, just feels a little confusing. The UX is kinda shitty; we want to understand how to do things, how to observe things, and how to use the app really well, and that's kinda difficult. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Straightforward Onboarding, Complex Navigation"
4/5
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.
