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 Statsig if
- Fits if you ship features behind flags and want results in the same tool
- Works for small teams that want unlimited seats on a free plan
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if you want CUPED or holdouts, which are Pro
- Pricey if you go past 5M events, at $0.05 per 1K events on Pro
- Watch out: SSO, role-based access and warehouse deployment are Enterprise only
- Watch out: unlimited retention isn't on the free plan
- Not for you if you want a quick setup, because SDKs go into your product first

| 3.0GPAAmplitudeVery good | 3.0GPAStatsigVery good | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | AA site with 10,000 visitors a month fits in the free plan's 2M events, so the figure here is $0, with unlimited seats and 10,000 replays included. Past 2M you move to Plus, $900 a year for up to 3M events. | AFree for 2M events a month with unlimited seats, which covers most small teams. Pro is $150 for 5M events. |
| Free plan and trial | BFree with no time limit and no card: 2M events, unlimited seats and 10,000 replays a month. The caps: only 10 saved charts, 1 experiment and 1 guide or survey live at once, and 1 year of data. | B2M events, unlimited flag checks and 50,000 replays a month, free. Real use, though the advanced stats aren't included. |
| Features | BFunnels, retention, cohorts, replays, feature flags, web A/B tests, in-app guides and surveys, all from one vendor. That covers the whole product analytics job. Experiment results and SSO need Growth, which is sold through sales. | BExperiments, flags, product analytics, replay and SDKs. Nothing in the core job is missing. |
| Ease of use | CNo rating on record. Autocapture gets data flowing, but useful funnels and cohorts mean planning your events and learning how the charts work. AI agents on every plan take questions in plain words. | CNo rating read. You add SDKs and define metrics first. |
| Platforms and integrations | BWeb only, with no desktop or phone app, which keeps it off an A. It connects to Segment, Braze, HubSpot, Snowflake, BigQuery, Databricks, Google Ads and Slack, and an MCP server lets Claude and Cursor query your data. | BWeb with SDKs, and Segment, Amplitude, Mixpanel, Datadog, Slack and Jira links. |
| Best for | product analytics free up to 2M events a month | feature flags and experiments in one place |

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.
