FAQ

How long does it take to set up Pendo?

With Pendo you get time to value in minutes — not months. As soon as Pendo is installed on your application, it starts collecting data. You can tag a page or feature anytime, and Pendo automatically surfaces all relevant data back to the time of installation.

 

Are codeless analytics less secure?

Pendo’s Retroactive Analytics were built with a security and data privacy-first approach. Pendo will never automatically capture user-entered text or information input into form fields, so sensitive data like passwords can’t be accidentally collected.

 

Can I capture back-end data and other details with a low-code tool?

Yes, Pendo’s low-code approach is not meant to replace coded tracking altogether. Pendo offers the best of both worlds: low-code Retroactive Analytics plus coded track-event analytics.
