Hotjar + Databricks

Hotjar is a behavioral analytics tool that provides insights into how users interact with websites, helping optimize the experience and increase conversions. It uses heatmaps, session recordings, and feedback to identify opportunities for improvement. Databricks, in turn, is a serverless big data platform that provides robust storage and large-scale data analytics capabilities.

With Erathos, you can integrate Hotjar data into Databricks in just a few minutes. Our platform handles the entire data movement process into your analytics environment and lets you blend that data with other sources in your Data Warehouse. That way, your time is focused on what really drives value — extracting actionable insights and making more data-driven decisions.

Which Hotjar data does Erathos sync with Databricks?

The integration automatically syncs Hotjar's core objects:

  • Events — all tracked events with custom properties
  • Sessions — source, duration, device, and behavioral data
  • Users — profiles, properties, and activity history
  • Conversion funnels — steps, drop-offs, and rates by segment
  • Cohorts — retention and engagement over time
  • Custom properties — event properties and user properties defined by your team

Why sync Hotjar with Databricks?

Hotjar's native dashboards are great for monitoring product metrics, but they make cross-functional analysis harder. In Databricks, you can combine product events with CRM, payments, and marketing data — understanding retention by cohort, calculating LTV by segment, and uncovering the activation paths that best predict customer success.

How it works

Erathos connects to Hotjar via the official API and syncs your data incrementally — only new or updated records are processed on each run, keeping pipelines fast and Databricks costs predictable. You choose the sync frequency (from 5 minutes to daily), the objects to sync, and the destination dataset. Every run is logged with full observability: runtime, rows processed, context-rich errors, and instant alerts via Slack or email if anything goes wrong.

Building data-driven stories

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.
