  • PostHog has easy to implement surveys that I'd recommend. Only shown once by default, but they have ways to configure frequency and such. Can be implemented in many ways too (Popover, Hosted, or fully customized by API).
  • Pick a domain you care about, choose one metric that makes money or saves time (activation, checkout completion, time-to-first-value), and instrument it with PostHog or Amplitude.
  • Posthog, worth the learning curve.
  • Been happy with posthog but more towards web apps, flow and behaviors

Cons

  • PostHog - has flags but feels like overkill if I just want flags
  • I have seen solutions like posthog or mixpanel which are too complicated for me.
  • Posthog is probably the worst.

What redditors said (10 of 10)

I use posthog. Initially used it for analytics and crash data but found it also had a feedback request form. No extra login required and you can choose the routes users take before it activates and what not. It's actually a really nice system, if a little complex for the average as it has.. a LOT of data.

Use Sentry or LogRocket for frontend; something like Logtail or PostHog for backend observability.
