FullStory shows the digital experience. Beseam connects it to the rest of the shopping journey.
FullStory combines session replay, heatmaps, and frustration signals with searchable, privacy-conscious event data to explain the digital experience. Beseam is narrower in experience analytics and broader in commerce scope: it connects experience data with catalog, AI discovery, campaigns, reliability, actions, and booked revenue.

Primary job
Capture and search session replay, heatmaps, and frustration signals across web and mobile.
Connect store and sales data across systems and decide which issue should move into action.
Experience depth
Deep session replay, search, and frustration-signal detection.
Behavior evidence sits alongside discovery, catalog, campaigns, reliability, conversion, orders, and revenue.
Commerce breadth
Strong digital experience capture and search context.
Storefront, catalog, AI discovery, behavior, campaigns, incidents, actions, and booked revenue.
How it works
Teams search sessions and route findings through their existing processes.
Finding, business impact, owner, approval, application, and the result share one trace.
Best relationship
Specialist session replay and experience capture platform.
Connects experience findings with the rest of the store data, an approved change, and the measured result.
What happens after the signal appears?
Find an experience problem
Session search or a frustration signal reveals a digital experience issue.
The issue is connected with product, campaign, discovery, reliability, and order evidence.
Quantify consequence
Teams review affected sessions and estimate scope manually.
Booked, observed, attributed, and modeled values retain separate methods and confidence.
Decide what matters
Experience or support teams determine which issue enters the backlog.
The experience finding is compared with the other commerce problems and evidence competing for action.
Verify the change
Sessions are revisited after release to confirm the fix.
The original problem, change status, and before-and-after result stay together.
Real Beseam revenue overview. Experience evidence is evaluated alongside the rest of the store rather than in isolation.
FAQ
Before you change the stack.
Is Beseam a FullStory replacement?
Not for teams that need deep session replay, search, and frustration-signal detection. Beseam serves a different job: connecting experience data with the rest of the commerce problem, the decision, the approved change, and the result afterward.
When would a team use both?
Use FullStory to find and watch specific sessions. Use Beseam when those findings need to be connected with catalog, discovery, campaign, reliability, conversion, order, and revenue evidence before deciding what to do.
How is Beseam broader?
Beseam connects store and sales data beyond the digital experience, including AI discovery, catalog readiness, advertising, actions, impact, and reliability.
