Empowers teams to build visualization-rich reports and make faster decisions using historical user behavior data
I think areas for Amplitude's improvement include data retention. The maximum data I have worked with, the clickstream data on Amplitude, is two years, whereas we rely on Tableau for historical data of at least two years. I am not sure whether it was my organization paying for lower retention or not, but having historical data would take away the reliance on Tableau. Secondly, reconciling clickstream data with Databricks or other AWS systems could help analysts spend less time verifying the accuracy of both sources, which would be really helpful. Lastly, a more focused approach on error logs is necessary. I have found that, at least with Intuit, we used Splunk more for error logs than Amplitude. Although Amplitude had the capability, developers seemed to prefer Splunk, so if that could be improved, it would be good.

Flexible content workflows have transformed how our team updates seasonal messaging in real time
Overall, we have used Contentstack to great effect as our headless CMS. We have it connected to our custom UI, and it allows us to update basically in real time with updates reflecting on the site within seconds. The best features Contentstack offers are extremely flexible to our needs, meets all our use cases, easy to use, and the UI is very intuitive. It is easy for the whole team to manage content, and support is helpful and responsive. The flexibility and intuitive UI of Contentstack help meet all our use cases in our organization. The UI is very intuitive and user-friendly, making it very easy to use, even for new users who find it very easy to navigate. Additionally, Contentstack has continuous product improvement and enables us to build and architect content through the use of their easy-to-use software and user interface. Contentstack has positively impacted our organization by saving time deploying content and allowing our team members to manage content, thereby getting time to market faster. Precisely, we have been able to save 30 to 45 percent of our time. Also, having a rich partner network has improved the speed to adopt new functionality. The administration application is very user-friendly and does not require a lot of ramp-up for users, which has also decreased the time it takes to get content deployed.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Amplitude has impacted my organization positively in a huge way, as everyone uses it to gain insights into user behavior before implementing new features, which leads to massive positive change, data-driven development, lots of learning, and encouragement to use Amplitude in daily work for everyone in the company, not just analysts."
"Amplitude offers flexibility in real-time data analysis, allowing users to make immediate decisions."
"Amplitude has provided almost instant value to our dev team when they are deploying new trackable events and seeing how those events line up before they go out to production."
"Other areas like cohort analysis, defining key events, and user properties were also well-suited for Amplitude. It is an easy tool to use."
"Amplitude has provided a return on investment, helping us improve campaign targeting and raising personalization accuracy by almost twenty-five percent, while saving us a lot of time since I can see the analysis as quickly as possible in the dashboard, resulting in significant time and money saved."
"We can create charts and bar charts for visualization purposes and check real-time data with the solution."
"Amplitude is a perfect product that will always fulfill all the data-related needs that your company has, and I would suggest anyone to go for it."
"I loved using Amplitude because it allowed me to dive deep into product usage and analyze different customer segments."
"The ease of use, which I mentioned as the best part, is especially highlighted by the clean UI and predictable UX of Contentstack, as there is not too much information on the screen at the same time that can confuse the users."
"Contentstack is a great tool; the service helped us stay on track with our headless launch and deliver on time, and we are beyond happy with the service provided and still being provided."
"Contentstack has saved time and improved efficiency, and compared to other products, it is cost-effective and not expensive."
"Contentstack has positively impacted our organization, as tracking changes made by our very large team is difficult, so we are using Contentstack to update data in real-time."
"Contentstack has created an impact of quick access to a non-tech person to add the properties right away and to work on their own personalized marketing campaigns and other aspects."
"The speed index has had a great impact; earlier we had something in the 60s on Google Page Insights, but now we are able to achieve 90-plus."
 

Cons

"Regarding how Amplitude can be improved, I think that dashboards and charts are ephemeral; people often create dashboards but rarely revisit them, so while a handful of dashboards might survive, the real value lies in the insight derived from them."
"The visualization of the properties can also be enhanced. Basically, the visualization could be better, and the real-time analytics can be enhanced."
"Setting up reports in Amplitude was challenging for me as a newer user."
"The free features in Amplitude Analytics need enhancement."
"I give it a nine because it is close to a perfect ten for me, but it is only useful in one layer of the project, not the other, which the tool is supposed to do."
"We have seen tagging issues with Amplitude in rare scenarios, which can be improved."
"Amplitude is almost perfect, but there are some charts I cannot create due to the large data structure."
"Amplitude could be improved by being cheaper."
"For improvement, I want to clear the cache for the pages, as Contentstack does not provide a default way of invalidating the cache."
"We are more worried about the pricing. For example, somebody who is a tech person trying to integrate based on the events finds it a little bit more not so accessible."
"I noticed that sometimes it takes time, and I am not sure about the server side, as it may not be responding."
"The API, specifically the Content Delivery API, can be a bit tricky sometimes."
"It is good, but not great. For something like eighty percent of my set of tasks, I can scale based on the background we have with Contentstack."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is a little on the higher end, especially when considering scalability."
