the quest for better collaboration

The quest for better collaboration: principles, cheatsheets, and 10+ tools we use at Hotjar

June 27, 2019 by Fio Dossetto Behind the Scenes

The Hotjar story (part 3) - growing our team & product while going from €1 to €3 million ARR

November 13, 2018 by David Darmanin
When we founded Hotjar in 2014, we had an ambitious vision for our product, but we were also an unknown team of five with no external funding and little experience in the world of SaaS. We didn’t let any of that stop us: Hotjar went from idea to 60,000 beta signups in six months, and we hit an important milestone by going from beta to €1…
