G2 Spring

We had a free version of Pendo, but could foresee great costs on scaling up, so we had to find an alternative to match our budget and needs.“

The plan with the required features in Pendo.io was too high for our organization. As we have a small userbase for the dashboard, UserGuiding was perfect for us. It provided all required features in very less price when compare to Pendo.“

I was onboarding every single client in a one-on-one zoom. We still meet with every customer to build a relationship with them, but our clients are equipped to get up and running fully without us so if they do need help, our calls are dramtically shorter.“

I've been using UserGuiding over the last year and it has definitely drastically changed in all of the features that it offers. [...] I'm a big proponent of UserGuiding and found it superior to Pendo and Walkme especially when it comes to the learning curve and ease of use.“
