Introducing the web's first market map of the Product Analytics Market:
I was floored when I couldn't find one of these online.
Surely, Gartner or CBInsights or A16Z would have created one?
It turns out not.
So I spent the past 3 months:
• Talking with 25 buyers
• Researching the space myself
• Interviewing 5 product leaders at key players
This is what I learned about the most significant players in each space:
