Crazy Egg
Crazy Egg is a website optimization tool providing heatmaps, scroll maps, A/B testing, and session recordings to improve conversions.
What is Crazy Egg?
Crazy Egg was one of the first tools to make heatmap visualization accessible to website owners who were not data scientists or UX researchers. Founded in 2005 by Neil Patel and Hiten Shah, the platform showed marketers exactly where users were clicking, scrolling, and spending attention on their pages — information that had previously required expensive eye-tracking studies or complex analytics setups. Scroll maps, click maps, and session recordings gave small and mid-size teams the same behavioral data insights that large enterprises were getting through dedicated research departments.
The platform works by injecting a small JavaScript tracking script into the target website. This script captures click and scroll events from real visitors and sends them to Crazy Egg's backend for aggregation and visualization. The quality of heatmap data depends on both the script loading correctly on the client's site and the backend processing pipeline ingesting events in a reasonable timeframe. Crazy Egg also offers A/B testing functionality, allowing teams to run experiments alongside behavioral tracking from the same platform.
Service problems on Crazy Egg tend to have two distinct failure signatures. Tracking failures are the most serious: if the JavaScript snippet fails to load or the event ingestion backend is down, visitor data simply is not collected, creating permanent gaps in the behavioral dataset. Dashboard failures are less catastrophic but more immediately visible: the heatmap visualization, recording playback, and report generation interfaces may be unavailable even when tracking is functioning normally. Users may only discover tracking failures retrospectively when they notice unusually low session counts in their dashboards.
Outage.gg tracks Crazy Egg platform status using community reports from marketers and CRO professionals. If heatmaps are not loading, recordings are unavailable, or the dashboard is down, the live status page shows current impact from affected users.
