Which one is for you
Pick Amplitude if
- Fits if you're a startup that stays under 2M events a month and pays nothing
- Works for teams of any size, since every plan has unlimited seats
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you just want visitor counts for a blog, which a simple page counter does with less setup
- Not for you if you want a published price for experiment results and SSO, which start on Growth
- Tight if you stay free and build lots of reports, with only 10 saved charts, 1 live experiment and 1 year of data
- Watch out: Plus has no price list in text, only a chart; it's $6,912 a year at 10M events
- Watch out: session replays are kept for 1 month on every plan, and longer is a Growth or Enterprise add-on
Pick Dreamdata if
- Fits if you sell B2B and want to see which channels brought the deals
- Works for teams that already use HubSpot or Salesforce
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if you stay free: 5 seats, 2 months of history and 3 stage models
- Skip it if you want the paid price, as Advanced is quoted
- Watch out: Activation, a data warehouse and SCIM are add-ons on Advanced
- Watch out: the free plan's tracked-user limit isn't stated on the page

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
