What Is Contentsquare (formerly Hotjar)?

Hotjar is now part of Contentsquare. Hotjar shows how visitors actually use a website through heatmaps, session recordings, and on-page surveys, helping teams spot usability and conversion issues that analytics numbers alone don't reveal.

Best for: Teams that want to visually understand user behavior alongside quantitative analytics.

New Hotjar accounts are no longer created: the vendor directs signups to Contentsquare Free. That replacement adds attention maps, funnels and error monitoring to the heatmaps and recordings customers associate with Hotjar, with a different session allowance; migrations should therefore distinguish legacy Hotjar entitlements from current Contentsquare packaging.
