What differentiates Pendo from other similar products?
We picked Pendo over other platforms because we found its analytics to be superior to those of its competitors. In addition to the functionality, we were persuaded to go with Pendo because another team within the company was already using it for another software project.

My issues have been resolved quickly by customer support. I strongly recommend Pendo for product analytics. I've learned a lot about user behavior from it, which has helped my product succeed."
What do you dislike most about this product?
While Pendo is very useful right out of the box, it does not allow for extensive customization for the sake of individual preferences. Those unfamiliar with product analytics software may find Pendo's steep learning curve intimidating, despite the platform's many available training resources. Pendo has limited integrations; while it is compatible with many widely used programs, it lacks support for some less common ones that some users may find useful. Pendo's reporting features may not be as robust as some users would want, and it may be challenging to extract some data points for some users.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
It's an excellent platform for sending data to customers, tracking and managing the lifecycle, and submitting product enhancements, thus I highly recommend it.
