3 App Integrations to Take Your Product to the Next Level

There are a ton of third party integrations to choose from in the world of app development. It can be hard to tell which integrations are worth it and provide a high-quality solution that saves time vs. which features make more sense to build out your own custom solution instead. Oftentimes, the integration sounds great in the demo, but can be hard to verify without firsthand experience. Check out three integrations our Technical Product Managers recommend that will take your product to the next level:

Everybody wants product analytics, but rarely do you want to sacrifice development time on an analytics platform that requires custom integration and tagging every data metric you’d like tracked. Smart look not only simplifies the integration process, but also a free scalable plan for early-stage startups. This plan includes both session recordings and heat maps, two tools we find invaluable for gathering user feedback and launching improvements.

Looking to ship a physical product to a consumer? Oftentimes in any shipping scenario, there are many edge cases to consider, which can add significantly to development time. Shippo not only allows you to find the best shipping rates from all of the top carriers, but also can provide a seamless integration with your backend and downloadable shipping labels + status updates. We’ve found Shippo to save time and guarantee a positive user experience. In terms of pricing, Shippo will scale with you and your order volume.

Need to build a chat feature but on a tight timeline? TalkJs has a Chat API that allows you to quickly build out a top-notch chat experience, including attachments, notifications, reactions, and more. There are a variety of use cases they offer solutions for, and the integration drastically reduces development time. If their pricing works for your business, we recommend its quality UI and ease of use.
