CRO specialist Information Technology and Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Valuable user insights" August 28, 2020 5.0 ContentSquare helps me to dive further into the user behavior on a page. I mostly use it to pre-validate AB-test ideas, analyse AB-tests, discover bugs on our site and determine general improvements of the user flow. Pros ContentSquare has extensive features to analyse user behaviour on a page or on a set of pages. The different type of reports form a great set of tools to uncover more general and very specific insights. I mostly use the zoning analysis and session replay. The CS Live Chrome Extension is very handy and is a great solution for stakeholders and team members to find quick answers to their questions. ContentSquare has integration with our customer feedback tools, Google Analytics and AB-testing software. ContentSquare is relatively fast as well, especially compared to our previous tool ClickTale. Cons We sometimes run into bugs. Luckily the Support Team is often quick to reply. Switched from [ClickTale](https://www.capterra.com/p/113270/ClickTale/) ClickTale turned into ContentSquare for us when they were acquired. Review Source AL Adrien L. VP of Digital Retail Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Amazing tool" September 20, 2021 5.0 Pros Content square is an amazing tool, extremely detailed information about the user journey on your site, that helps you optimize your site day after day. The team at CS is extremely responsive and knowledgeable, they help you make the most out of the tool. Cons It takes a little bit to get used to the tool, but the team is really helpful in getting you up to speed Switched from [Lucky Orange](https://www.capterra.com/p/150695/Lucky-Orange/) Access to a lot more information and less impact on the website's performance. Review Source CK CJ K. Digital Testing & Optimization Associate Retail Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Excellent features, with some issues" July 14, 2020 4.0 Pros Great range of features that touch almost every aspect of visitor behavior, from the journey map to individual page interactions. Gives a whole new dimension on the "why" behind the winners and losers of A/B tests. Really caring and responsive customer support team as well! Cons Issues with performance, especially when taking in data from a large variety of external campaigns, do create somewhat significant barriers to using the platform to its fullest extent. Review Source AG Amanda G. Head of Digital Building Materials Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great visualisation of website analytics" February 17, 2022 5.0 The customer support and onboarding was exceptional. They are dedicated to their customer being able to use the product. Pros Ease of use, exceptional customer support and great visualisation of website analytics. Simple presentation and analysis of complex information. Cons It does take some training to understand the program. It isn’t overly complex, but more that you need to unlearn how you might have done analytics before and simplify your approach. Think learning how to use a Mac after years of using a PC. Alternatives considered [Hotjar](https://www.capterra.com/p/163516/Hotjar/)[Google Analytics 360](https://www.capterra.com/p/177042/Google-Analytics/) Reason for choosing Contentsquare Visualisation simplicity and integration with other tools such as AB Tasty. Review Source Rossella T. Digital Experience manager Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Essential for understanding user behavior and improving conversions!" October 29, 2021 5.0 Thanks to Contentsquare's data, we can plan better the actions to improve the user experience and journey. We can also better understand the user and the points of friction. CS helps us formalize significant A / B tests and actions that prove to be successful. The benefit is an increase in conversions with less effort on all teams. Pros ContentSquare allows you to analyze the user's journey and to identify pain points within the page. Furthermore, thanks to the "Impact quantification" module, it is possible to evaluate the impact of certain user behaviors and plan actions based on the estimated revenue. Contentsquare allows us to improve web performance thanks to ux / ui micro-optimizations. The tool's usability is perfect, and the support is always timely and effective, made by extraordinary people, and I highly recommend it. Cons Nothing, I like everything about the tool, and I have no suggestions. Review Source Erin M. G. Adobe Target Project Manager Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Fantastic Customer Insights From Behavioral Patterns To Conflicts On A Page" May 4, 2021 5.0 1\. Not being able to compare one device against another device side by side is a bit of a headache 2. Mapping is very difficult for an average user even with Admin access, it causes a lot of grief 3. Not being able to go back very far date wise since we are only mapped to May 2020 Pros So far I'm obsessed with Contentsquare for not only gathering metrics from past A/B and Experience Targeting testing but with all my insights even before testing. I've been able to show stakeholders why a particular change will or will not be beneficial, where spots on a page are going cold, or even learning where visitors are confused by our page flow. Cons 1\. Zoning analysis is my favorite sub tool for not only seeing a page at a macro level but also going down to very specific CTAs or hyperlink. 2. Being able to check specific visitor traffic flows from an entire page or an individual component makes CS very versatile. 3. Heat mapping is a bit wonky right now but very, very useful regardless of the slight quarks in data fields Switched from [ClickTale](https://www.capterra.com/p/113270/ClickTale/) Clicktale was sold product to Contentsquare.

Analytics & CRO Expert Apparel & Fashion Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A powerful tool to enable growth" September 17, 2021 5.0 Pros The possibility to answer "why" on so many questions we might have about our pages and journey Cons The learning curve is maybe a bit steep and the tool can be obscure if you don't come with questions to answer to Review Source Louise Z. Senior Content manager Apparel & Fashion Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Exceptional platform teamed with an experienced/ involved customer account management." September 20, 2021 5.0 Pros The Content square platform has changed the way we approach almost all projects. It's helped us truly enforce data driven decisions versus the loudest opinion. The workspace of the tool has become a feature i use on daily basis to see an overview of metrics in one place. Cons There have been some minor functionality issues over the course of using the tool but the content square team are always open to feedback to improve. Things that were issues in the past have now been improved - the tool is constantly evolving. Review Source Lara B. Senior CRO Analyst Telecommunications Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Excellent tool for analysis" October 13, 2022 5.0 Pros The plugin on Chrome and zonning part are very useful, as well as Google Analytics integration! Great webinars and training videos. Cons Session replay could be improved, sometimes it doesn't load, setting up mappings can take time. Review Source Paul H. Digital Customer Experience Director Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great platform that helps you find pain points throughout your journey that you do not know exist!" September 6, 2022 5.0 I’ve partnered with ContentSquare at two separate companies now and have always found them to be a brilliant company to work with. They have great people and also a great platform that has consistently helped us identify and rectify pain points throughout our journey that we didn’t know we had, unlocking both customer and commercial value. Pros I love the visual and accessible nature in which ContentSquare displays insight. It does a far better job than most other platforms of eliciting actionable insight rather than simply displaying data, which is what it’s all about. Cons It’s a big platform and so takes some time to navigate and master, which can be further complicated depending on how well you set up your mappings etc. That said, the ContentSquare University platform is an excellent way to self learn and self serve. I’d also like some of the Find & Fix capability to be bundled within the core product and cost as it’s brilliant, but costly. Review Source SW Samuel W. Head of marketing Furniture Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great for knowing what's happening on your website" May 20, 2021 5.0 We are well accompanied. Owing to our small team size compared to other users, we need to be followed a lot by our customer success manager. We are satisfied regarding that point. Pros I like the ease of use, the sunburst diagram to instantly see what are your customers doing. The contextual right click button makes it super easy to dig deeper into understanding pain points. Cons We encountered several bugs, that are all fixed now. Alternatives considered [Google Analytics 360](https://www.capterra.com/p/177042/Google-Analytics/)[AB Tasty](https://www.capterra.com/p/141801/AB-Tasty/) Reason for choosing Contentsquare Contentsquare was provinding more insights, especially regarding customer journey. Google Analytics tends to analyse more static behavior and it can be hard to se what's happening between your pages. Review Source ME Michael E. Senior Trading Manager Consumer Electronics Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Crucial software to understand how your users are using your site" July 23, 2020 5.0 ContentSquare has provided so many insights and helped understand so many situations that would have been a lot more difficult to analyse without it. Eg. Overall UX insights - Assisting major strategic CRO tests and redesigns across the entire site. Opportunities - Reviewing page performance and customer journeys has allowed us to make even the smallest tweak in UX to assist customers make the right choice, whether it's moving a button or changing a piece of text, the insights would have been invisible without ContentSquare Site issues - the tool has also helped us understand areas of frustration or elements that have perhaps broken or links that don't work. Overall, I wouldn't want to be without it The aftercare as mentioned above has been fantastic, ContentSquare are always happy to assist, they offer continued training for new and existing team members and they even offer to do analysis for you if you are struggling - fantastic service Pros The support from Content Square in implementing the software was fantastic, not only was the technical integration seamless, but the training and aftercare has been second to none. The tool is incredibly easy to use and the insights regarding customer interaction have been invaluable to date. Being able to see directly how every element of any page affects the customer journey is just amazing useful in making key strategic UX decisions Cons The only downside from my perspective is that the workspace module is a little tricky to use, there are certain quirks to learn in order to make these workspaces and I have to admitted I threw a couple of tantrums until I learnt these tricks. Workspaces are only a fraction of what Content Square can do, so it doesn't put me off using the tool in the slightest Review Source PM Perri M. Associate Manager, Digital Analytics Restaurants Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great tool for analyzing the customer journey on our website and app!" October 4, 2022 5.0 Contentsquare has been super helpful and supportive, our client manager Gillian has been amazing to work with. The team puts together helpful analyses for us and is very helpful in training our team how to use the tool Pros There are a lot of cool features in the tool such as session replay, zoning feature, customer journey mapping and the Chrome plug in for web makes it easy for people who aren't super close to the analytics tools to find the data they need for basic metrics Cons We experienced some difficulty when setting up the product and it took us a lot longer than expected, the mapping piece is confusing and right now we can only look at 3 months of data at time, I think that may be a contract limitation on our end though. Review Source BJ Blanchon J. CEO Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The best for auditing sites" June 13, 2023 5.0 The analysis makes it possible to really detect the improvements to be made, with real performance gains.

Pros I love the way the reports display information visually. I also love CS live and having the power to view our site analytics in real time. Cons Our current plan does not keep data beyond three months. Review Source MM Maxime M. Web Analytics Manager Insurance Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "The best to step up from web analytics to UX analytics " November 11, 2021 5.0 Pros Easy to implement and to get everything you need tracked For analysis : user friendly and deepdive analysis methodology are key to get added value ! Cons If your website or mobile app tend to be updated regularly (new pages and content), then it is more likely you will have to keep your cartographies updated too (but the platform shows you easily the percentage of your pages are not included at least to help you for that) Review Source SK Sheri K. Lead Product Manager Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Finding insights quickly with Contentsquare" March 12, 2021 5.0 One of our biggest frustrations with website analytics (GA) has been that they only tell us so much, and it requires us to really know what we're trying to find and then spend hours or days digging for it. This was causing us to spend considerable time just putting together reports before we could even get to the insights. Contentsquare changes that as now everything is tagged automatically on site (no more data layer setup!) and it's easy to spot strange or inconsistent patterns & behaviours. The different modules go well together to start to narrow down where we need to spend our time so we can take action quickly to solve pain points for our customers. Pros There are so many pros to using Contentsquare: the ease of tag setup, highly visual modules, simple for non-data analysts to use & understand, great team throughout the process, surfacing insights...the list goes on. Most importantly though, it finally gives us the ability to really understand how our users engage with us & our website so we can provide an even better experience for them. Cons There are still some bugs to be worked out in some of the modules but the support team is excellent and they always respond quickly and update us on when things are fixed.

Cons Hmm the naming of mappings vs pages is confusing and takes you a while to get your head around also why is the log in a two step process - just use one screen please guys! Review Source EM Ed M. Web Operations Manager Executive Office Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great experience with Contentsquare" July 28, 2022 5.0 Pros I really love Contentsquare's snapshot and find and fix features. They are easy to use and are really great for making real-time updates to our website.

Review Source MS Melanie S. Digital Product Management Specialist Retail Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great Partnership with Crocs + Contentsquare" August 2, 2022 5.0 It's a quality product but the partnership we have with CS is extremely valued. Pros We can gather way more information about our users and their behavior/journeys that allows us to figure out areas of focus, improvement, etc. We love working with our customer support team at ContentSquare. Cons It's a pretty massive platform so I need to be able to dedicate more time to the product in order to feel more comfortable.
