| Pricing | Plus: "Starts at $0" — first 2M events/month free, credit card required, scales to 70M events · free tier: Free plan: 2M events/month forever, no credit card required, includes limited experiments, Guides & Surveys and 10K monthly session replays | $0 — pay-as-you-go keeps the same free allowances then meters overage from $0.0000500/event (1–2M events) · free tier: $0 forever, no credit card: 1M analytics events, 5,000 session recordings, 1M feature-flag requests, 1,500 survey responses, 100K error-tracking exceptions and 10GB logs per month; unlimited team members, 1 project, 1-year data retention, community support only |
| Pricing model | Freemium with custom event-based pricing and paid add-ons | Usage-based, metered per product (no traditional tiers) |
| Best for | Mid-market product and engineering teams already committed to Amplitude analytics whose main need is safe flag-gated releases plus a small number of high-value experiments measured against existing event data — and who will negotiate experimentation add-ons into the initial contract. | Engineering-led seed-stage SaaS startups under 1M events per month that want analytics, session replay, feature flags and experiments from one vendor at $0, and have at least one developer comfortable installing an SDK and configuring a reverse proxy. |
| Avoid if | You are a high-velocity CRO team running many simultaneous tests, a marketing-led team wanting no-code page testing (that is the separate Web Experimentation SKU), a buyer needing budget certainty before a sales call, or you need bandits and holdout groups as standard rather than add-ons. | Avoid PostHog if the daily users of the tool are non-technical founders, PMs or marketers — the learning-curve and confusing-UI themes account for hundreds of negative G2 reviews — or if you need guaranteed responsive support early, SSO and audit logs on a startup budget, or more than one project without paying. |

A higher TOP SCORE means more of the evidence favours that platform on this methodology — it is not a recommendation, and it does not account for your specific requirements. Advertisers are never declared the winner of a comparison.
