Being from a PM background I have used all analytics tools like Mixpanel, Amplitude, Fullstory and also error tracking tools like sentry. Now, I'm working on my own product called zipy.ai - which combines product analytics, session replay, error monitoring both on web and mobile in one place. Do check it out and share feedback. Its an AI powered tool which helps in user behavior insights and auto fixing of UX issues.
