Hotjar + ClickHouse
Hotjar is an online behavior analytics tool that provides insights into how users interact with websites, helping to optimize user experience and boost conversion rates. It uses heatmaps, session recordings, and feedback surveys to pinpoint areas for improvement. ClickHouse, on the other hand, is an open-source, high-performance columnar database management system for online analytical processing (OLAP) that delivers robust, large-scale data storage and analytics capabilities.
With Erathos, you can integrate Hotjar data into ClickHouse in just a few minutes. Our platform handles the entire data pipeline to your analytical environment, allowing you to blend these datasets with other sources inside your data warehouse. This keeps your team focused on what actually drives value — extracting critical insights and making data-driven decisions.

What Hotjar data does Erathos sync with ClickHouse?
The integration automatically syncs key Hotjar objects:
- Events — all tracked events with custom properties
- Sessions — source, duration, device, and behavior data
- Users — profiles, properties, and activity history
- Conversion Funnels — stages, drop-offs, and segment-specific rates
- Cohorts — retention and engagement trends over time
- Custom Properties — event and user properties defined by your team
Why sync Hotjar with ClickHouse?
In ClickHouse, you can run OLAP queries on your Hotjar data in milliseconds, making it perfect for high-concurrency dashboards and massive time-series datasets.
How it works
Erathos connects to Hotjar via its official API and syncs your data incrementally — only new or updated records are processed in each run, keeping pipelines fast and your ClickHouse compute costs predictable. You choose the sync frequency (ranging from every 5 minutes to daily), the objects to sync, and the target dataset. Every pipeline run is logged with full observability: runtime, rows processed, contextual error logs, and instant alerts via Slack or email if anything goes wrong.

“Every new source implementation, if I had to do it myself, would take about two or three months. With Erathos, it's done in a few hours. I don't need the skills of a data engineer to generate real value from the company's data.”
“Erathos revolutionized data management at WE. By integrating multiple SaaS tools into a single DW, our technical team now focuses on the core business. We implemented dashboards with insights across every area, enriching our organizational culture and improving our decision-making.”
“We used to have a lot of rework, and now we don't. It's more efficient to work this way. If it's not your core business, hire Erathos. Spend your time modeling your own domain, not someone else's.”
“If I didn't have this infrastructure, I'd need three or four people to do what Erathos does today. I was able to generate real value from my data with a much leaner setup than I thought I'd need. That's the core of building a data-driven culture: the team only uses data when they can trust it.”
“Erathos brought a practical turnaround at CCM. We were able to integrate financial systems, CRM, and processes with BigQuery in just a few clicks, with no technical team required. That gave us a reliable data warehouse that powers automations, dashboards, and even our customer service bots.”
“The robustness and efficiency of Erathos's connectors — whether for Meta, Google, RD Station, or ERPs like Bling and Conta Azul — make the whole process much faster and more reliable. The technical documentation is extremely well put together and intuitive, which makes implementation much easier.”
