## Description

LiveSession is a session replay tool that will help you learn more about your users.
You can watch how they interact with your website. The sessions can be filtered 
according to different variables, including location, devices, browsers, engagement
score,and many more.

LiveSession is a great solution for UX designers, marketing professionals, customer
support teams, and everyone who works with websites.

This plugin allows you to install LiveSession on your WordPress website.

### Features

 * **Always-on session recordings** – The software records everything the visitor
   does on the website, including mouse movements, scrolls, and clicks. The sessions
   can be replayed, rewatched, and analyzed later. You can see exactly what your
   user sees, just like you’re sitting next to them.
 * **Engagement score** – When you record a lot of sessions, it’s time-consuming
   to go through all of them one by one. Thanks to the engagement score, you can
   filter the most interesting recordings automatically.
 * **Custom properties** – Would you like to identify the users you’re watching?
   It’s possible with custom properties. You can import data from other analytics
   tools and add more context to your sessions.
 * **Inspect mode** – Track how users interact with particular elements of your 
   website. Inspect mode allows you to find sessions that contain what you’re looking
   for.
 * **Rage clicks and error clicks** – Rage clicks detect JavaScript errors, while
   error clicks are recorded when the user clicks on something very fast and repeatedly.
   These two features will help you spot points of frustration.
 * **Clickmaps** – Clickmap allows you to see what elements of your website were
   clicked and how many times in a retroactive fashion. You can view aggregated 
   click values from multiple sessions for a given section during session playbacks.
   With engagement heatmaps, you see the most frequently interacted elements of 
   your web page from all sessions. This in turn helps the user refine their websites
   and CTAs for better conversion rates and lead generation, boosting company growth
   and success through optimized user experience.
 * **DevTools** – See all console logs in one view or by a severity level – info,
   warn and error. Debug your website or web application with ease and shorten the
   time needed to provide superb customer support.
 * **Funnels (NEW)** – analyze your visitors’ paths and boost conversion rates by
   eliminating obstacles that prevent your customers from buying. Use LiveSession
   Funnels to add another dimension to your UX research.
