Great price, great service

The overall experience has been great. Anytime I needed help, they were quick to respond.

Pros
HelpHero is a low-cost and easy to implement solution that allows us to quickly generate customer onboarding guides.
Cons
The only negative I would have is the Dismiss vs. Cancel options on tours can be a little confusing.

HelpHero has been all along the way for us in our journey. We use it in two separate products. It has scaled really well with our business and user patterns. Customer support has been always incredible. For instance, we required WCAG AA accessibility features and they added them within weeks.
Pros
Simplicity, the fact that is "just works", scalable, excellent customer service, price
Cons
Lack of in-built ability to space out popups over time (e.g. "run this workflow only if the previous one finished at least a day ago"). It can be done by requires coding.

Hi Pablo, thanks so much for the thoughtful review. We really appreciate your support and are grateful to be part of your journey. Happy to advise that we recently released a new enhancement enabling date conditions to be set when running tours. More information is available on the HelpHero website under the docs section. Thanks again for sharing!

Overall I think it was the right choice to go with HelpHero when we started. Not at least because of the competitive pricing. Now with some traction more pro features and a higher level of customization would be needed, but we are stuck there. Now we need to consider switching to a more sophisticated solution, which is not what we would love to do.
Pros
It's inexpensive and easy to set up. The basic functionality is in place and works as intended.
Cons
The login flow with the magic link is not convenient. Also, the editor is unintuitive at times. We now have dozens of tours that still can't be sorted in folders. That could need a redesign for sure.

HelpHero has been a very effective tool to use in a multitude of ways. We've used it for onboarding tours, release notes, announcements & alerts. It has helped us to expose messages far quicker to our users, than if we'd had to develop a popup.
Pros
Customer support from [sensitive content hidden] has been exemplary. His professional and simple requests allowed us to resolve a long-standing issue with our integration coding.
Cons
I cannot deactivate / draft tours. I have to delete it a recreate the template from a saved doc when ready to reimplement.
Response from HelpHero
Hi James, thanks very much for taking the time to provide us a review. We really appreciate it! You can deactivate tours by editing the tour settings and disabling autostart. Hope this helps. Feel free to email [email protected] if you have any further questions.

Overall, I think it's a fantastic product that really helps our users learn how to use our software. Great job!
Pros
I like how we're able to provide in-software guidance on how to use our product – since it can be difficult for new users.
Cons
I wish there was a way to create folders for all of the tours, checklists, and hotspots; the organization of folders would help us find things that we've built much easier. Also, I wish there was a way to include a button for users to turn tours on/off.

Pros
Easy to use. Well designed. The support is very active.
Cons
Searching the hotspots/tours is not possible.Sessions are quite short for the Chrome extension, we often need to re-login, which is killing people's willingness on using it.
Response from HelpHero
Hi Kevin, thanks for taking the time to write this review. We are grateful for your support and feedback which helps us continue to improve. While it's not currently possible to perform a search, labels can be added as a quick and easy way to organise and categorise hotspots, tours etc. More information is available on the HelpHero website under the docs section. Thanks again for sharing.

Amazing Tool
Reviewed on 2023/10/02
Pros
Customer support is extremely helpful! Tool is pretty good. Customer segmentation of tours is a bit difficult without engineering support. Tool does have everything you need to create an engaging, branded tour
Cons
Customer segmentation is not a fully integrated feature
