Hotjar picks what sessions to record
Hotjar throttles your data – and it is as if you were watching a movie and it would skip ahead to random scenes. Who would want to watch a movie like that?
With Mouseflow, you record all your website visits, so you don’t miss crucial insights. Full resolution, HTML recordings allow you to access your pages’ code and surgically identify what’s affecting your users’ website experience.
Forget about setting heatmaps up
Having to set up a heatmap for all your pages is crucial and cumbersome.
With Mouseflow, you’ll be able to review heatmaps for your URLs as soon as you start collecting data. Additionally, you’ll get access to all heatmap types , including our Live heatmaps that allows you to review interactions on dynamic elements of your website. Dropdown menus, megamenus, carrousels and more at no extra cost and without additional configuration.
Our click heatmaps offer 10+ contextual click information to supercharge your analysis.
Funnels are a commodity today
Funnels are a crucial tool today to understand where your visitors are dropping in their journey. Watching as they move from page to page with session replay is the ultimate proof to validate hypothesis and increase your precision when developing new solutions.
Funnels are available on all Mouseflow plans at no extra cost and are completely retroactive – if you forgot to set up a certain funnel at the very beginning, it’s not a problem at all, you’ll have data for it even if you set it up later.
