Pendo Overview

What is Pendo?

Pendo helps you deliver better software experiences for happier and more productive users and employees. Pendo helps product teams ask and answer questions like: What features are customers or employees interacting with? Which are they ignoring? What parts of the product are driving delight or frustration? From these same insights, you can easily set up in-app guides without any coding to drive software adoption, provide support, and generate better leads, right inside the application. With Pendo, you can help your users get the most value from your software so that you can drive growth, efficiently.

What do you like best about Pendo?

Pendo is easy to navigate, easy to creat guides, and easy to pull insights from. They've recently released a ton of new features using AI and have been super helpful in showing how to best use them. Their team has helped us implement guides across our entire org and it has become an integral part of our workflows while strengthening our collaboration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pendo?

Editing guide templates can be frustrating due to the lengthy steps it takes to edit one. I'm also worried that they may be releasing too many AI features that will potentially lead to feature bloat and a declining user experience (also to mention increased pricing as a consideration here.. "more features" (even bad ones)! = "we can raise our pricing!"). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pendo solving and how is that benefiting you?

Pendo is really helping us with being able to build onboarding guide for our users, promote events/new features/important messages, and track our users' actions. Insight from this helps us determine how we might best assist our users with learning such a robust product and encourage them to adopt features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Pendo?

Simple and easy to use analytics with great integration options allow us to get the data we need to make decisions.

Technical account management is a must. It costs you a little more but multiplies the value you get from Pendo. Our Technical Account Manager has become a core part of our team helping us to get the data we need, configure Pendo in the right way (which is an important consideration) and onboard new team members.

Guides. Pendo allows you to augment your users experience of your product by presenting targeted help, information and requests for information. Guides have helped us make a positive change in our users' experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pendo?

The feedback module is not well supported or easy to use, we find ourselves using Pendo Feedback as a mechanism to collect feedback doing all analysis outside of Pendo itself which is frustrating. (though Pendo are building a replacement).

There are some inconsistencies in the User Interface. Different parts of Pendo have slightly different controls and ways of doing things. This inconsistency can make onboarding harder, especially for less tech-savvy teams, than it needs to be. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pendo solving and how is that benefiting you?

Understanding what is being used and what isn't, where there are blockers in our user journeys and helping our users to get them to the right place. We have also used Orgvue for in-product marketing and support messaging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is a bit of a learning curve with it and it requires your data is setup in a very specific way which can get tricky with a lot of users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is helping us keep track of user behavior on our product. It is also helping us send out alerts based on usage.

What do you dislike about Pendo?

Challenging to tag. Challenging to get pendo installed and integrated on the app. I'm a UX Researcher. Sometimes widgets I don't feel are fully helpful.
