What are the limitations of using heatmaps in case studies?

Heatmaps can provide valuable insights, but they have limitations such as not capturing user intent and only showing aggregate data.

Can you explain why heatmaps might not reflect true user behavior?

Certainly! Heatmaps often show where users click, but they don't indicate why they clicked, which can lead to misinterpretations.

Are there specific scenarios where heatmaps are less effective?

Yes, heatmaps may be less effective in complex user journeys or when analyzing interactions that don't involve clicks, like scrolling.

What alternatives can I use to heatmaps for better insights?

Alternatives include session recordings, user surveys, and A/B testing, which can provide more context and qualitative data.

How can I combine heatmaps with other tools for better analysis?

You can combine heatmaps with analytics tools to correlate click data with user demographics and behavior patterns for deeper insights.
