GoAnalyze [CLOSED]

@jf3000 It appears so.

@jf3000 Howdy! Apologies for the delay in response, never got a notification about your comment, mix that in with the current COVID pandemic and you got yourself a delayed response! Thanks for your comment, though! Some of the best platforms in the world use (to some extent) an open source code. It's a super smart way of being able to bring a product to the market quicker and more cost effectively. To answer your question: Yes and No. We did use some back end parts of 66 for our base code (back-end functionality). Because we are a transparent company, ill be glad to tell you why! When developing a platform, it would have taken countless hours to code from scratch the back end functionality, as well as the ability for the platform to connect directly to a users website accurately. We thought long and hard about using an open source for this functionality but ultimately decided to do so because of the cost value of that. Going as far as to making sure that the cost was low so we did not have to pass that onto the users in the form of an expensive platform (which most of our competitors ARE). GoAnalyze then added additional features to provide the value aspect of the platform that our competitors did not have. Using an open source code for part of the platform is not a bad thing at all! We embrace the idea of sharing code and not re-inventing the wheel when it's not necessary. In any case: We love our platform and so do our users! That's what matters most. In fact, you should sign up for our free plan and poke around. I'm sure you'll find most if not all features useful yourself. Cheers mate!

@ilya_lindal Beware? Sorry you feel this way. Companies close all the time. The unfortunate part was that there WAS no time to let users know. Out of transparency, there was a bad acquisition which fell through, forcing us to close immediately. I have had many successful platforms, and this was the first of the ones I have opened that failed. I am 1000% OK with GoAnalyze failing. Sorry you feel that failure should be a reason to "Beware" of someone who bootstrapped a platform with no VC or investment money. :-) But, your opinion is justified and sorry again you feel this way. Best of luck to you.

@imaan988 Thanks for your comment! We focus a lot more on using the data we have to help businesses find the right marketing strategies, not necessarily replacing those platforms you mentioned. Althought, you could replace them. You can absolutely use us in conjunction with Hotjar and CrazyEgg as well. What I can say is that GoAnalyze uses website data, visitor event tracking, session recordings (amongst other features) to assist businesses in understanding their target audience more. As a result of this data, we are launching our influencer marketing platform within GoAnalyze (all-inclusive) to allow those businesses to partner with/find influencers that would be best for promoting their business based on the data that you obtain within our platform. I'm not at all saying that you *have* to use the influencer marketing at all - rather it's simply a feature we offer and have more of a focus on. I have yet to find a platform where you can use website and visitor data to find influencers as well as include the influencer search within the same platform without having to spend $399/mo just searching for influencers. :-) If you are looking for a comparison chart between us three: Hotjar - Provides just heatmaps, Session recordings, survey forms. Not any true analytics. CrazyEgg - Provides just heatmaps, recordings and A/B testing- Not any true analytics. GoAnalyze - Provides heatmaps, Session recordings, visitor tracking, website analytics, influencer search (coming soon), UTM's and realtime data. Hope this helps!
