Product analytics track how users interact with your SaaS, while feedback loops ensure you act on those insights. This chapter explains instrumentation, feature adoption tracking, A/B testing, customer feedback channels, and AI-driven analysis. Applied examples show how to evolve your Todo List SaaS from basic usage metrics to enterprise-grade analytics with predictive insights and continuous feedback loops.
1. Instrumentation & Event Tracking
Best Practices
- Define key events (task created, integration added, notification sent).
- Add tenant_id and user_id to every event.
- Track funnel metrics (signup → onboarding → active usage).
- Use standardized schemas for events.
Tools
- Segment / RudderStack → Event pipelines.
- PostHog / Amplitude / Mixpanel → Product analytics.
Real-Life Example
