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 UXCam if
- Fits if you run a mobile app and want to watch real sessions
- Works for a product team with a developer to add the SDK
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you want a price on the page, as plans are quoted after a form
- Not for you if you need a free plan, as there's only the 14-day trial
- Skip it if you have a plain website with no app, where web-first tools cost less
- Watch out: no desktop apps are listed, so you read results in a web dashboard
How we grade them
| 3.0GPAAmplitudeVery good | 2.2GPAUXCamFair | |
|---|---|---|
| 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. | CNo prices are published; plans follow monthly sessions and are quoted after a form. |
| 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. | C14-day trial with full features and no card. No free plan. |
| 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. | CSession replay, heatmaps, funnels, retention, dashboards and an AI analyst for apps. It's built for mobile and needs an SDK in the app. |
| 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 store rating on record. A developer must add the SDK before anything shows up. |
| 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. | BSDKs for iOS, Android, React Native, Flutter and Cordova, with web analytics too, and a web dashboard. No desktop app. |
| Best for | product analytics free up to 2M events a month | session replay for mobile apps |

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.
