OnScreen Guidance vs. Appcues

OnScreen Guidance by Confirm (formerly Learning Pool) OnScreen Guidance is a digital adoption platform (DAP) that helps organizations guide employees through software and workflows, with support available directly where they work. Software adoption doesn’t end when employees log in. They need to know what to do, how to do it, and how to keep moving when workflows change. OnScreen Guidance puts interactive guidance, contextual support, and process documentation directly into web-based applications.

Appcues is a customer engagement platform that turns your product into the best place to reach, encourage, and engage your customers. Marketing and product teams use Appcues to publish dynamic content, surveys and multi-step guides without ongoing engineering resources. Most in-app tools focus solely on onboarding new users. Appcues runs campaigns across the full customer lifecycle: helping you build awareness of new features, drive adoption, encourage advocacy, and inform what you build next, all through targeted in-app messaging.
