Connect Convert experiments to Pendo to analyze product behavior by test and variation

The Convert + Pendo integration is built to bring your experimentation data directly into your product analytics. It sends experiment and variation exposure from Convert into Pendo as standard track events.

With this connection, product and analytics teams can see which tests users were exposed to and how that influenced feature adoption, engagement, and retention—right inside Pendo. Experiment data becomes another powerful signal alongside your existing product usage metrics.

Setup is lightweight: as long as both tracking codes are present, a small JavaScript snippet pushes active experiment and variation data into Pendo. From there, you can segment, report, and analyze behavior by exposure to specific A/B tests and personalizations.

Key capabilities

  • Sync active Convert experiment and variation names into Pendo as track events
  • Use Pendo’s native event tracking to capture experiment exposure as standard analytics data
  • Activate the integration via a simple JavaScript snippet on your site or in Convert’s Project Global Javascript
  • Automatically loop through active experiments and send relevant exposure data to Pendo
  • View experiment and variation data in Pendo as custom user data/events for segmentation and reporting
  • Control which experiments run where in Convert so only relevant exposure data is sent to Pendo

Benefits

  • Attribute changes in feature adoption, retention, and engagement to specific A/B tests and variations
  • Build precise Pendo segments based on experiment exposure to compare how different experiences drive behavior
  • Centralize experimentation and product analytics in Pendo for clearer, faster decision-making
  • Reduce engineering effort with a low-code setup that reuses existing Convert and Pendo tracking scripts
  • Increase experimentation ROI by tying test outcomes to real in-app usage and lifecycle metrics

Convert and Pendo

Pendo is a product analytics and in-app guidance platform that helps teams understand how users engage with their digital products and drive adoption through targeted experiences. It combines behavioral data, feedback, and in-app messaging to support better product decisions.

Together, Convert and Pendo connect experimentation with product analytics by sending Convert experiment and variation exposure into Pendo as native events. This gives product and growth teams a unified view of how A/B tests and personalizations influence feature usage, engagement, and retention, enabling more informed decisions and more impactful product experiments.

Use Cases

Tie Feature Adoption Directly to A/B Test Variations

Problem: Product teams ship experiments but can’t clearly see how each variation affects adoption of key in-app features, leaving roadmap decisions based on incomplete or siloed data. Solution: Convert sends experiment and variation exposure into Pendo via pendo.track(). Teams then analyze feature usage and adoption funnels in Pendo, segmented by which Convert variation users saw. Outcome: Roadmap and rollout decisions are grounded in clear evidence of which experiences drive feature adoption, reducing guesswork and accelerating time-to-value for new capabilities.

Segment Product Analytics by Experiment Exposure

Problem: Analytics in Pendo show overall engagement trends, but don’t distinguish between users exposed to different experiments, masking the true impact of product changes. Solution: The integration records each active Convert experiment and variation as Pendo events. Product analysts build Pendo segments based on experiment exposure to compare behavior across variants. Outcome: Teams uncover which experiences drive deeper engagement, retention, and NPS, enabling more precise targeting, better rollouts, and higher ROI from experimentation.

Measure Long-Term Retention of Winning Variations

Problem: A/B tests are often judged on short-term metrics like clicks or signups, with no visibility into whether the winning variation actually improves long-term retention or churn. Solution: Convert pushes variation data into Pendo, where it becomes part of each user’s event history. Teams track cohorts over time in Pendo, segmented by the variation they originally saw. Outcome: Retention, expansion, and churn can be tied back to specific experiments, helping teams favor variations that deliver durable value instead of short-lived metric spikes.

Optimize Onboarding Flows with In-App Behavior Insights

Problem: Onboarding experiments run on key pages, but teams can’t easily see how each variation affects downstream in-app actions like completing setup or discovering core features. Solution: With both scripts installed, Convert logs onboarding experiment exposure into Pendo. Product teams then analyze onboarding completion, time-to-value, and feature discovery by variation. Outcome: Onboarding flows are iterated based on real behavior data, improving activation rates and reducing time-to-first-value for new users across segments and plans.

Align Page-Level Experiments with Product Journeys

Problem: Experiments are targeted to specific pages or categories, but their impact on broader product journeys—like upgrade paths or key workflows—remains unclear. Solution: Convert’s flexible targeting controls where experiments run and what gets sent to Pendo. Pendo reports then show journey completion and funnel performance by experiment and variation. Outcome: Teams identify which page-level changes improve entire journeys, not just local metrics, leading to more coherent experiences and higher conversion across the product funnel.

Give Product Teams Experiment Context Inside Pendo

Problem: Product managers working in Pendo daily lack visibility into which experiments users are seeing, forcing them to cross-check tools and slowing analysis. Solution: The JavaScript snippet automatically syncs active Convert experiments into Pendo as custom events, so experiment names and variations are visible alongside standard product analytics. Outcome: Product teams analyze usage, feedback, and guides in full experiment context, speeding insight generation, reducing dependency on data engineering, and improving collaboration with growth teams.
