Statsig Reviews & Product Details

Statsig makes it very easy to analyze the results. The graphs they provide are easy to read and you can click on each metric for additional insights, charting and statistical significance. At a quick glance you can see what is going on with the experiment Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find some of the features when submitting an experiment to be quite confusing. For example the allocation duration, cohort duration and total experiment time fields are not clear. Additionally, most of our experiments we analyze one week after allocation and there is no option to do this in Statsig Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Statsig has wildly exceeded my expectations! Our company had never had any sort of testing before, and when we were looking through platforms, it was hard to know what we needed. But the StatSig team was super willing to work with us on contract price and help us through setup and implementation. They're super responsive to any questions we have, whether it's a technical implementation question or a question on how to explain something tricky to a stakeholder. The tool itself has been great - it's straightforward to use, which has really helped with adoption amongst the team and to start building more of a testing culture at our company. Their team is also really responsive to feature requests and actually implements feedback into their roadmap - a lot of companies say they'll do this during the sales process but then never follow through. I'd recommend StatSig for any company starting out with experimentation and testing! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only downside I can think of is that it's just an experimentation platform, so I do have to use it separately from our other product analytics tools. But that hasn't been a real pain point! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

+ It works and is relibable.

+ It is well documented

+ Plenty of adapters (React/Vanilla JS, HTML, etc...)

+ Experiments feature is super nice

+ Integration is super easy Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- SDK Documentation is wrong (It says "env" instead of StatSig env) - caused a bug on our side.

- Can't add desription to feature gates - when a company grows and works on multiple things, Devs might not know what other people are working on.

- Can't bulk delete feature gates - You must enter into gates one-by-one and delete them.

- The SDK does not support lazy initialization, or refreshing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Statsig is a very powerful tool for collecting metrics necessary to make informed decisions having to do with A/b testing. It had pretty much everything you would need from an analytics suite as well - our team finds it much easier to build dashboards and pull information from than something liek google analytics.

Support is top notch and the discord channel is very active. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be nice if event properties could be arrays/objects, right now we're stuck with strings/integers - so if we wanted to return more complex properties to the event it limited.

I get around this by passing back json strings and then filter with string contains. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It needs to improve the details of how to do the integration, including some sample codes and making it clearer how the logs part works, separated from the development and production environments.

In addition to recommendations or tips on how to create logs focused on user journeys. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So far, it's been difficult to learn without having to consult the documentation, so that it's not a very technical tool. We're migrating from Mixpanel, and there it's a certain ease of doing things that we haven't found yet in this migration. But there could be an examples tab or something like that, without having to leave the dashboard and that would be quick to consult, like short videos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Statsig was very easy for my team to transition to from our old experiment platform, and the transition was immediately worth it as I was blown away by the performance increases, both in the user interface and in how quickly exposures were resolved. The user interface is beautiful and makes me look forward to setting up and checking the status of my experiments, and some of the easter eggs like the musical graphs feature show how much attention to detail the team has spent on making this the friendliest possible dashboard. It is easy for me to set up experiments and feature gates on their portal, as well as easy to implement them in my codebase. I find myself using Statsig as often as I can now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Even though the transition was easy, there were some things that took getting used to when coming from our old experiment platform, and we needed to deal with some quirks during the transition time when we were using two experiment platforms at the same time as we were transitioning.

As a client developer, StatSig is very intuitive to use, reducing a lot of the boilerplate set up with experiment templates. My favorite feature is the ease of overriding experiment assignments for bug bashing across multiple environments. This has definitely increased our velocity when testing and shipping experiments.

One area of improvement would be the user interface for reviewing / approving changes to experiments. There have been some changes made to this recently, so it's nice to see that this is an area of focus for the team at StatSig. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- The support is really helpful. They have an AI bot backed by real folks, and I've always had my questions answered pretty quickly

- The SDKs let us do a lot of stuff beyond just the standard frontend experiments. Right now we're using the Python SDK to gather events from our infra and correlate that with users on the frontend

- The Pulse results are easy to read and interpret Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- Some of the experiment setup with groups, overrides and segments can be tricky, but support is readily available

- The connection between events and metrics has a learning curve. Figuring out the best way to create metrics that capture what we want took some time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Statsig doesn't try to do everything, it's focused at statistical testing (A/B tests, flags, etc) with a solid engine that lets you focus on interpreting the results. It wasn't difficult to set up and integrate with own datawarehouse, which is a must if you have customer-specific personally identifiable information that has to be kept in-house.

Technical support is stellar. The team is fast in answering our questions and clarifications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are some design decisions regarding the SDKs or the data ingestion process that we had to work around, but they were a minor hurdle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There's no compromise in the platform, you can get everything you would expect from an in-house experimentation platform, and more, without the hassle of building it.

We launched the first experiment in 1 week and started getting results immediately.

Also, it pairs well with the existing poduct analytics platform that we use, Amplitude. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Unfortunately, product analytics is not yet on par with the competition. However, it pairs well with them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
