What do you like best about HockeyStack?

Everything was really smooth. Filled out a form, chose a time from the calendar link, did a 30-minute meeting where I got all the information, got onboarded and set up everything in the last 2 minutes of the call, dashboards were made for me, decided to upgrade mid-trial.

‍

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

HockeyStack helps us see which channels and ads bring us the most MRR, so that we can prioritize one over the other. They came to us at a time of cost cutting, so we turned off most of our ads when we saw they weren't bringing any revenue and funneled some of the spend to the top 5 campaigns.

‍

We also recently onboarded our product team onto the platform to consolidate our reporting setup.

Just one drop a code snippet into your CMS/Website, and 90% of the configuration is done!
