About Hotjar

Hotjar is a powerful tool that offers website analytics and feedback. It allows you to understand your users' behavior on your website by providing heatmaps, session recordings, and surveys. Heatmaps visually represent where users click, move, and scroll on your site, offering a deeper insight into their interactions. Session recordings let you watch real user sessions, providing a direct view of user experience. Finally, Hotjar's feedback and survey tools enable direct communication with users to gather qualitative data, helping you understand the 'why' behind user behaviors.
