How we grade them
| 2.8GPAContentsquareGood | 2.2GPALogRocketFair | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | B$0: the free plan covers up to 200k sessions, so a 10,000-visitor site fits, but it records only 5% of visits. Recording more starts with Growth at $39 a month billed yearly for just 7k sessions, fewer than this site has. Graded against Clarity, which records everything free, that's a B. | D$83 a month billed yearly for 10,000 sessions on Core, about what a 10,000-visitor site needs. Graded against the replay tools it's listed beside, that's dear: Fullstory and Clarity record that many for nothing. Unlimited errors and logs are what the money buys. |
| Free plan and trial | BFree forever up to 200k sessions, with heatmaps, funnels, error monitoring and basic surveys, so one person can live on it. The limits: 5% of sessions recorded, up to 10k, 1 project and 1 month of data. | CFree forever up to 1,000 sessions a month, which a busy site passes in days, plus a 14-day trial of everything with no card. Fine for a side project, not for a real product. |
| Features | BHeatmaps, attention maps, replays, funnels, journeys, error and Core Web Vitals monitoring, surveys and Sense AI summaries. That's the whole experience analytics job, though Free and Growth record only a share of visits and APIs need Pro. | BReplays with logs, network calls and errors, performance monitoring, funnels, path analysis, and heat and rage-click maps, with unlimited analytics events. The whole replay job, done for developers. Galileo AI and role-based access need Pro at $292. |
| Ease of use | CNo rating on record. A snippet starts the heatmaps and replays, but Hotjar now sits inside Contentsquare's bigger platform, new users sign up there, and journeys, projects and surveys take some learning. | CNo rating on record. Setting it up means adding its SDK to your app, and it's built for developers reading logs and network calls, so non-technical teams will need a hand getting started. |
| Platforms and integrations | BWeb only, with no desktop or phone app. It connects to Google Analytics, Jira, HubSpot, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Unbounce, Optimizely and AB Tasty, and AI assistants can plug in through MCP on every plan. | BWeb only, no desktop or phone app, though it records web and mobile apps. It connects to Jira, Zendesk, Intercom, Salesforce, Segment, Sentry, GitHub and Linear, and has an API. |

LogRocket
- Prices on the calculator are annual figures shown per month; the page says the final price also depends on seats, retention length and add-ons.
- Core is sold only below 100,000 sessions a month; above that Pro is required, and from 4 million sessions Enterprise.
- Galileo AI features, role-based access and audit logs need Pro; streaming data export and self-hosting need Enterprise.
