10 Best Product Analytics Tools of 2026
By the KeenVerdict research desk · Updated November 12, 2026 · Next review December 27, 2026 · 10 products scored

Our verdict
Amplitude leads because it puts analytics, session replay, experiments, guides and surveys on every plan, and its Free plan already handles 2M events a month with unlimited seats. Mixpanel is close behind and is the easiest large vendor to budget for, with a public event-volume table that starts at $100 per month for 1.5M events on annual billing. PostHog gives engineering teams the biggest free allowance across analytics, replay, flags and error tracking. Statsig is the pick when experiments drive decisions, with a published $150 Pro plan. Hotjar (Contentsquare) is the simplest way to see behavior on pages from $39 per month, while Heap and Pendo suit teams that want automatic capture or in-app guides on quoted plans. LogRocket ties analytics to errors with published session prices, Fullstory serves larger teams on quotes, and Kissmetrics fits small teams that want revenue per campaign. We left out June, which announced in August 2025 that it was joining Amplitude and saying goodbye to the June product.
The short answer
Amplitude is the best product analytics tool for product teams in 2026, because its Free plan includes 2M events a month, session replay and unlimited seats. Mixpanel suits teams that want a predictable bill, at $100 per month for 1.5M events billed annually, and PostHog is the best free option for engineering-led teams with 1M events and 5K replays free every month, as of November 2026. Teams that mainly want heatmaps and replays should pick Hotjar (Contentsquare) from $39 per month instead.
This list is for product managers, growth teams and product engineers who need to measure what users do inside a web or mobile product: which features they adopt, where they drop out of funnels and who comes back. We compared documented features and published prices for 10 tools and scored each on features, ease of use and value. Some are event analytics platforms, some add experiments and feature flags, and some start from session replay and heatmaps, so read the best-for line on each entry. Prices are the cheapest paid plan in US dollars as shown on the vendor's own pricing page on November 12, 2026. Usage-based tools are marked as such, and quote-only vendors are labeled.

Free plan with 2M events a month; Plus starts at $0 and is billed on event volume above the first 2M events; Growth and Enterprise are custom
Quoted from the Amplitude pricing page on November 12, 2026:
Starts at $0 First 2M Events/month free.
Amplitude is the broadest documented product analytics package on this list. Its Free plan covers 2M events a month, 10,000 monthly session replays, product and web analytics, AI-powered analysis and limited experiments, guides and surveys, all with unlimited seats and no credit card. Plus starts at $0 for the first 2M events and then bills by event volume up to 70M events, adding custom events and formulas, 20 behavioral cohorts, alerts, heatmaps and 2-year data retention. Growth, on a custom quote, adds conversion drivers, saved metrics, cart analysis, predictions in limited form, 20,000 monthly replays, SSO and project permissions. Enterprise adds data access controls, unlimited projects per portfolio and 50,000 monthly replays. The trade-offs are that Free leaves out behavioral cohorts and custom events, and the higher tiers require a sales conversation. For product teams that want funnels, retention and replay in one tool from day one, it is the strongest documented option.
What works
- +Every plan includes analytics, session replay, experimentation, guides and surveys
- +Unlimited seats on all plans, including Free
- +Startups under $10M in funding with fewer than 20 employees can get one free year of Growth
What does not
- −Behavioral cohorts and custom events are not on the Free plan
- −Growth and Enterprise prices are only available from sales
- −Replay retention is 1 month on every plan unless you buy an add-on
- Free plan

Price
Free plan with 1M events a month; Growth starts at $0 with 1M events included and costs $100 per month at 1.5M events billed annually
Quoted from the Mixpanel pricing page on November 12, 2026:
1.5M events/month: $100/month, $1,200/year (18M events/year)
Mixpanel is the most price-transparent of the large product analytics vendors. The Free plan includes unlimited seats, up to 1M events a month, 10,000 session replays, up to 1,000 monthly experiment users, 10 active feature flags and funnels and retention analysis. Growth starts at $0 with 1M events included, and its published table shows $100 per month at 1.5M events, $185 at 2M and $270 at 3M on annual billing. Growth also raises limits to 20M events and 500,000 session replays a month, adds unlimited saved cohorts, metrics and reports, custom and borrowed properties and up to 5 alerts per project. Enterprise, on a quote, goes up to 1T events a month and adds unlimited alerts with anomaly detection, data verification and root cause analysis. Annual billing matters: Mixpanel shows $480 a year in savings at 1.5M events. For teams that want to forecast their bill from event volume, it is the easiest large vendor to budget for.
What works
- +Published event-volume price table, for example $185 per month at 2M events billed annually
- +Unlimited seats on the Free plan
- +Startups founded under 5 years ago with up to $8M in funding can get the first year free
What does not
- −Monthly billing costs more: annual billing saves $480 a year at 1.5M events
- −Growth caps alerts at 5 per project
- −Metric Trees is a paid add-on on Enterprise only
- Free plan

Free every month up to 1M analytics events and 5K session recordings; pay as you go above the free tier with per-product billing limits
Quoted from the PostHog pricing page on November 12, 2026:
Same free tier every month. You only pay for what you use.
PostHog packs the widest set of tools into a single free tier. Every month, the free plan includes 1M analytics events, 5,000 session recordings, 1M feature flag requests with experiments billed alongside, 100,000 error tracking exceptions, 1,500 survey responses and allowances for data warehouse sources, workflows and logs. The free plan has unlimited team members, 1 project and 1-year data retention, and usage stops at the limits so you cannot be charged by surprise. Adding a card moves you to pay-as-you-go with the same free tier, 6 projects, 2-year retention and email support, and you set billing limits per product. PostHog states that 97% of companies use it for free, and it also offers an MIT-licensed open source version. The cost is complexity: with this many products, setup suits engineering-led teams more than product managers who want a guided start.
What works
- +PostHog says 97% of companies use it for free
- +Billing limits per product prevent surprise bills
- +No credit card needed to start
What does not
- −Free plan allows 1 project with 1-year data retention
- −Many separate products to configure, which suits technical teams more than marketers
- −SSO, audit logs and custom roles sit in paid platform packages
- Free analytics
- 1M events a month

Free Developer plan with 2M events a month; Pro from $150 per month with 5M events, then $0.05 per 1K events
Quoted from the Statsig pricing page on November 12, 2026:
$150 /mo 5M events included, then $0.05 per 1K events
Statsig starts from experimentation and adds analytics around it. The free Developer plan includes 2M events a month, unlimited feature flag and config checks, 50,000 session replays a month, A/B tests, product and web analytics, 1-year analytics retention and unlimited seats. Pro costs $150 per month with 5M events included, then $0.05 per 1,000 events, and adds advanced experimentation, advanced product analytics, unlimited analytics retention, change reviews and approvals and API controls. Enterprise is priced on event or experiment contracts and adds warehouse native deployment, data warehouse imports, SSO, role-based access and HIPAA eligibility with a BAA. Experiments support both Bayesian and frequentist methods. The catch for analytics-first teams is that the advanced analytics features sit on Pro, so the free tier is strongest for testing. For teams whose product decisions run through experiments, it pairs the two jobs at a published price.
What works
- +Published $150 Pro price with a clear $0.05 per 1K events overage
- +Free plan includes 50,000 session replays a month
- +30+ open source SDKs
What does not
- −Advanced product analytics is a Pro feature
- −SSO and role-based access controls need Enterprise
- −Overage on Pro is billed in the next billing period, so bills can vary

Free plan; Growth from $39 per month billed yearly ($49 monthly) for 7k sessions; Pro and Enterprise are custom
Quoted from the Hotjar (Contentsquare) pricing page on November 12, 2026:
Growth From $39 / month
Hotjar is now part of Contentsquare, and hotjar.com pricing redirects to Contentsquare's Experience Analytics plans. Every plan includes session replays, heatmaps, funnels, surveys and integrations. The Free plan costs $0 forever with 1 month of data access, 1 project, replays, heatmaps and funnels, error and performance monitoring, basic surveys and an MCP connection for LLMs. Growth starts at $39 per month billed yearly, or $49 paid monthly, for 7k sessions with 7k replays, and adds 13 months of data access, 3 projects, zone-based heatmaps, path analysis, impact quantification and Sense AI features such as replay and heatmap summaries. Pro and Enterprise are custom and add event-based cross-session journeys, error analysis, revenue attribution and A/B testing analysis. It is the most approachable tool here for seeing what users do on a page, but it is a qualitative behavior tool first, so pair it with an event analytics tool for retention cohorts.
What works
- +Growth starts at a published $39 per month billed yearly
- +Free plan includes replays, heatmaps, funnels and basic surveys
- +Yearly billing saves 20%
What does not
- −Free plan keeps only 1 month of data and 1 project
- −Event-based, cross-session path analysis needs the custom Pro plan
- −Less suited to event-level product metrics than dedicated product analytics tools
- Free plan
- 1 month data access, 1 project

Free plan up to 10k monthly sessions; Growth priced by estimate after installing the snippet; Pro and Premier on custom session pricing
Quoted from the Heap pricing page on November 12, 2026:
Sign up and install the free snippet to get an estimate!
Heap, now part of Contentsquare, prices by sessions rather than events. The Free plan covers up to 10,000 monthly sessions and includes core analytics charts such as funnels, journeys, retention and influence, unlimited enrichment sources, guides integrations, 6 months of data history and SSO. Growth adds the Sense AI assistant with chat, summaries and follow-ups, unlimited users and reports, chart customization, CSV exports, 12 months of history and email support; Heap gives a price estimate once you install the free snippet. Pro, on custom session pricing, adds account analytics, an engagement matrix, report alerts and session replay as an add-on. Premier adds a data warehouse integration, behavioral targeting, unlimited projects, advanced permissions, a dedicated CSM and region-specific storage. The weak point is price visibility: no paid plan shows a number, so you cannot compare costs before installing. For teams that want broad capture without tagging every event, it remains a solid analytics base.
What works
- +Free plan includes SSO and 6 months of data history
- +Unlimited users and reports start on Growth
- +Heap says it serves over 9,000 companies
What does not
- −No published price for any paid plan
- −Session Replay is an add-on on Pro and Premier

Free plan up to 500 monthly active users; Base, Core and Ultimate priced on request by MAU volume
Quoted from the Pendo pricing page on November 12, 2026:
Number of monthly active users 500
Pendo is the pick for teams that want to act on analytics inside the product. The Free plan supports up to 500 monthly active users and includes analytics, in-app guides, Pendo-branded sentiment surveys and data management. Paid plans are priced on request by MAU volume: Base adds custom MAU volume, Core adds session replay and Ultimate adds NPS, PMF and CSAT surveys, orchestration and product discovery. Every plan includes Leo for natural language questions, retroactive analytics from install day and integrations, and Pendo states that you can track multiple applications at no extra cost per application. Add-ons include Predict for churn models and Agent Analytics for measuring AI agent adoption. The limits are price and scale: no paid plan shows a number, and 500 MAUs on Free covers only a small product. For B2B software teams that want to see usage and then guide users with in-app messages, it covers both jobs in one place.
What works
- +Analytics and in-app guides together on every plan, Free included
- +Use across multiple applications at no extra cost per application
- +SOC2, GDPR and HIPAA compliance listed on the platform
What does not
- −Paid plans are only priced on request

Business, Advanced and Enterprise plans priced on request
Quoted from the Fullstory pricing page on November 12, 2026:
Request pricing & demo
Fullstory sells three Analytics plans, Business, Advanced and Enterprise, all priced on request after a demo. Its feature table covers session insights such as StoryAI summaries, live session viewing, developer tools, heatmaps, scroll and click maps and session replay, plus product analytics with funnels, page flow analysis, user segmentation, retention analysis, journeys and conversion analysis. On the data side it lists AI-powered Fullcapture, retroactive data history, server-side events, data layer capture, data quality monitoring and exports, with sensitive data excluded by default and AES-256 encryption. Guides and Surveys and Mobile Analytics are add-ons, and separate products cover Workforce analytics and the Anywhere warehouse integration. The depth is clear, but there is no free plan and no published price, so smaller teams cannot try it on their own data without a sales process. It fits larger teams that already know they want replay-led behavioral analysis.
What works
- +Three plans: Business, Advanced and Enterprise
- +Fullcapture records interactions without manual tagging
- +Data export, webhooks and a consent API

Free plan with 1,000 sessions a month; Core from $83 per month for 10,000 sessions billed annually; Pro from $292
Quoted from the LogRocket pricing page on November 12, 2026:
Core starts at $83 a month for 10,000 sessions.
LogRocket charges by captured sessions and leaves analytics events, error events and logs unlimited on every plan. The Free plan includes 1,000 sessions a month. Core starts at $83 a month for 10,000 sessions on an annual plan, and $176 at 25,000 sessions, while Pro starts at $292 a month for 10,000 sessions and includes LogRocket Galileo, the AI layer for session summaries, funnel insights, issue summaries, feedback analysis and anomaly detection. From 100,000 sessions Pro is the only plan, from $717 a month, and Enterprise starts at 4,000,000 sessions with custom annual pricing. Every plan includes session replay, product analytics and error monitoring, which makes it useful when product and engineering share a tool. LogRocket notes that final prices depend on seats, retention length and add-ons. As a pure product analytics tool it is narrower than Amplitude or Mixpanel, but its published price table and unlimited events make costs easy to predict.
What works
- +Full list prices by session volume are published in USD
- +Analytics events are unlimited, so heavy tracking does not raise the bill
- +Free trial needs no credit card
What does not
- −Galileo AI features need Pro, from $292 per month for 10,000 sessions

Free up to 100k events a month; Growth from $99 per month for 500k events, 20% off billed annually
Quoted from the Kissmetrics pricing page on November 12, 2026:
$99 / month, from 500k events a month included.
Kissmetrics tracks people rather than visits, which suits teams that care about who converts and what they pay. The Free plan covers 100,000 events a month and 3 seats with no card, and includes tracking by person across devices, Funnels and Activity reports, chat in plain English, dashboards, metrics, live view, API access and up to 3 active integrations. Growth costs $99 per month for 500,000 events, with 20% off when billed annually, and adds unlimited seats and integrations, the Performance report that puts campaign, signup and revenue on the same person, reusable Populations, reports on visitors from AI assistants and every other report, including Revenue, Path, Cohorts and A/B tests. The published table shows $299 at 2M events and $499 at 5M. It is lighter on product features such as session replay or feature flags, so it fits marketing-minded product teams more than engineering-led ones.
What works
- +Published event price table, from $99 for 500k events
- +Price per 1,000 events falls at 2M and 5M events
- +Cancel any time from account settings

Before you choose
Know what you will be billed on
Vendors meter different things. Amplitude, Mixpanel, PostHog, Statsig and Kissmetrics charge by events, Heap and LogRocket by sessions, and Pendo by monthly active users. Count your monthly events, sessions and active users before comparing, because a tool that looks cheap on one unit can cost more on another. Mixpanel, LogRocket and Kissmetrics publish their full price tables.
Start with a free plan on your own data
Most tools here have permanent free plans: Amplitude covers 2M events a month, Statsig 2M events, Mixpanel and PostHog 1M events, Heap 10k sessions, Pendo 500 monthly active users and Kissmetrics 100k events. Install one and check that funnels and retention answer your real questions before you pay. Fullstory is the only tool on this list without a free plan.
Decide whether you need replay, flags or guides too
Event analytics shows what happened; session replay shows how. Amplitude, Mixpanel, PostHog, Statsig and LogRocket include replay in their free tiers, while Heap sells it as an add-on on Pro and Premier. If you also ship features behind flags, Statsig, PostHog and Mixpanel include them. If you want to act on findings inside the product, Pendo bundles in-app guides with analytics.
Check seats and data retention
Unlimited seats are common: Amplitude on every plan, Mixpanel and PostHog on free, Statsig on Developer and Heap from Growth. Retention varies more. PostHog keeps events 1 year on free and 2 years on pay-as-you-go, Heap keeps 6 months on Free and 12 on Growth, and Hotjar (Contentsquare) Free keeps 1 month of data. Long retention matters for year-over-year cohort analysis.
Plan for a sales conversation at scale
Amplitude Growth, Mixpanel Enterprise, Heap Pro and Premier, every paid Pendo plan and every Fullstory plan are quoted by sales. Startup programs can offset this: Amplitude offers one free year of Growth to startups under $10M in funding with fewer than 20 employees, and Mixpanel gives eligible startups their first year free.
Questions readers ask
- What is the best product analytics tool?
- Amplitude is our top pick for product teams in 2026. Its Free plan includes 2M events a month, 10K monthly session replays and unlimited seats, and every plan includes analytics, replay, experiments, guides and surveys. Mixpanel is the closest alternative, with a published Growth price table.
- Is there a free product analytics tool?
- Yes. Amplitude is free up to 2M events a month, Statsig up to 2M events, Mixpanel and PostHog up to 1M events, Kissmetrics up to 100k events, Heap up to 10k monthly sessions and Pendo up to 500 monthly active users. PostHog says 97% of companies use it for free.
- How much does Mixpanel cost?
- Mixpanel is free up to 1M events a month, and Growth costs $100 per month at 1.5M events when billed annually. The published table rises to $185 at 2M events and $270 at 3M events; monthly billing costs more.
- Is Amplitude better than Mixpanel?
- Amplitude scores slightly higher on our list because its Free plan allows 2M events a month versus 1M on Mixpanel, and it bundles guides and surveys on every plan. Mixpanel is easier to budget for because it publishes Growth prices by event volume, while Amplitude Growth is quoted by sales.
- What is the difference between product analytics and Hotjar?
- Product analytics tools such as Amplitude and Mixpanel measure events, funnels and retention across users over time. Hotjar, now sold as Contentsquare Experience Analytics, focuses on heatmaps, session replays, funnels and surveys on pages, with Growth from $39 per month billed yearly. Many teams use one of each.
- Is June still available?
- No. June announced on August 8, 2025 that it was joining Amplitude and saying goodbye to the June product, so we did not include it. Amplitude is the natural place to look for former June users.
- Which product analytics tool is best for B2B SaaS?
- Pendo is a strong choice for B2B SaaS teams because it pairs analytics with in-app guides on every plan, free up to 500 monthly active users. Heap Pro adds account analytics, and Amplitude lists group behavior analysis as available from the Plus plan.
