SaaS Analytics
Maximize Product Adoption & Retention
Understand your users from signup to expansion - and everywhere in between.
In SaaS, retention is everything. KISSmetrics helps you understand how users adopt your product, what drives them to stay, and what signals churn before it happens. Turn trial users into power users, and power users into advocates.

Challenges SaaS Teams Face
Sound familiar? You're not alone - and there's a better way.
Trial-to-Paid Conversion
Most trial users never convert. Understand what activated users do differently and replicate it.
Feature Adoption Gaps
Users sign up but don't engage with core features. Identify adoption blockers and guide users to value.
Unexpected Churn
Customers cancel without warning. Spot early warning signs and intervene before it's too late.
Expansion Revenue
Upselling feels like guesswork. Know which users are ready to upgrade based on their behavior.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about saas analytics
What SaaS metrics should I track with product analytics?
Key SaaS metrics include activation rate, trial-to-paid conversion, feature adoption, net revenue retention, time to value, and churn rate. KISSmetrics tracks all of these at the individual user level, helping you understand what behaviors predict conversion and retention.
How does KISSmetrics help reduce SaaS churn?
KISSmetrics identifies behavioral patterns that precede churn, such as declining login frequency or reduced feature usage. You can build dynamic populations of at-risk users and trigger automated interventions through behavioral email campaigns before customers cancel.
Can KISSmetrics track feature adoption in my SaaS product?
Yes. KISSmetrics tracks which features each user engages with, how often, and in what sequence. Path reports show the feature adoption sequences that correlate with retention, and cohort reports reveal how adoption patterns change over time.
How is KISSmetrics different from Mixpanel for SaaS analytics?
KISSmetrics includes native behavioral email campaigns, so you can act on insights without a separate tool. It also provides done-for-you implementation support, flexible attribution models, and simpler pricing starting at $99/month.
Does KISSmetrics help with SaaS onboarding optimization?
KISSmetrics provides funnel reports for each onboarding step, showing exactly where new users get stuck. Cohort analysis reveals how onboarding changes impact long-term retention. You can trigger contextual emails to guide users through critical activation milestones.
