I am glad you liked the video. We engaged an agency for getting the video done. We are different from UserVoice because we are a private feedback tool (no concept of community). Also, there are dynamic fields and the cool screenshot feature

Thanks! Answers to your questions underneath - >1. Feedback opens up and makes requests every time it loads. Can that static form be downloaded on page load and saved? Tricky, because there's a whole lot of configuration, settings, fiel

It is a classic dilemma early stage companies face. I have seen a whole lot of founders stuck with this question. I am not trying to influence your decision here, but the ones that succeeded, did so by having a very clear cut focus. You eit

Yeah, for the blog use-case you can call us similar. But yes, we will let you tweak the snippet (title, description etc) for the notification once generated.

Yes, there is one. We'll build smart notifications on top of the API. Once we gain some confidence using our own API, we'll make it publicly available.

In a couple of ways - 1. WebEngage notifications can be "targeted" - it means you can choose to pop the message only to visitors meeting certain criteria. E.g. only to visitors coming from Google search, only to visitors spending 30 seconds

To begin with, we'll roll it out for all our customers with restrictions on the number of clickthroughs for each of our plans - http://webengage.com/pricing .. later, we plan to roll out each of our products separately with their own pric

Yes, but somewhere down the line. We are of the opinion that being creators of the tool, we are the most qualified and equipped to sell/market it. However, scaling that up will definitely be a problem. That said, whenever we hire sales peop

I am definitely missing something here. So, this is what I understand - users can send the client side info to webmasters. But how do I get to know that email id? Ain't that the only reason why services like UserVoice or WebEngage exist? Al

Wow, that's a nice first post to launch PluggdIn TV. Congratulations team. IMO, apart from interviews etc, product showcases on the TV product might be a good idea too.

Absolutely! The post might have got some attention from Quora in that case :)
