About Contentsquare

Overview

Contentsquare is a digital experience analytics platform that helps teams understand what users are doing on their website or app and why. It combines heatmaps, session replay, surveys, error monitoring, and AI-powered insights in one platform.

The product evolved from Hotjar, which is now part of Contentsquare. Users get 190 times more data capture capacity, AI-generated summaries, error and performance monitoring, and 10+ integrations at no cost on the free plan. This addresses the need for teams to quickly spot user struggles, identify technical issues, and prioritize fixes based on actual behavior data.

Key Benefits

  • Capture up to 200,000 sessions per month on the free plan, 190 times more than the previous Hotjar offering.
  • Get AI-powered summaries of heatmaps and recordings without manually reviewing every session.
  • Monitor JavaScript errors and performance issues to prevent conversion loss before it happens.
  • Visualize user drop-off at every step of key flows to identify where and why users leave.
  • Connect 10+ tools including Slack, Jira, and Unbounce directly from the free plan.

How It Works

You install Contentsquare on your website or app, and it automatically captures real user sessions. Review heatmaps to see where users click and hover, or watch session replays to spot struggles and errors. Use Sense Chat to ask questions about your data in plain language and receive recommended next steps, then connect insights to Slack, Jira, or other tools to share findings with your team.

Use Cases

  • Conversion rate optimizers use funnels and session replay to identify where users drop off in checkout flows and run A/B tests to improve completion rates.
  • Product managers monitor error logs and performance metrics to understand how technical issues affect user behavior and prioritize bug fixes.
  • UX designers review heatmaps and recordings to spot usability problems, confusion, and moments of delight in user interactions.
  • Customer support teams connect error monitoring to Slack to get alerted immediately when JavaScript errors or performance problems emerge.
  • Growth teams analyze survey feedback and funnel data to understand why users reach out and what features drive lifetime value.

Why Choose This Product

Contentsquare is best suited for mid-market companies, SMBs, and enterprise teams that need to connect user behavior to business outcomes. The product is free to start with no credit card required, though it pairs behavior analytics with AI-driven insights to help teams move faster from discovery to action. Teams already using Hotjar will find all previous features intact with significantly more capacity and new capabilities.
