Lucky Orange vs Ptengine (2026): which should you pick?

Pick Lucky Orange if

• Fits if you want heatmaps, recordings and a chat widget from one vendor
• Works for an online store that already runs on Shopify or BigCommerce

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you want a free plan, as there's only a 7-day trial
• Tight if your traffic jumps around, since plans follow monthly sessions and a spike can push you up a tier
• Pricey if you run several sites: extra websites are $5 each a month
• Watch out: longer data storage is an upgrade, and the pages disagree on whether Discovery AI is included

Pick Ptengine if

• Fits if you run a small site and want to see where people click
• Makes sense if you want heatmaps and A/B tests from one vendor

Look elsewhere if

• Tight if your site has over 3,000 pageviews a month, as free tracking stops at the limit
• Pricey if you want more, as Growth is $49 for 3,000 pageviews
• Watch out: Insight and Experience are priced separately, and we only read the Insight prices
• Watch out: free keeps data 1 month and Growth 6 months
• Watch out: unlimited events and API connections need the custom Premium plan

Lucky Orange

• There is no free plan, only a 7-day trial.
• The plan comparison lists Discovery AI as an add-on, while the trial box says it is included.
• Extra websites cost $5 each a month, and longer data storage is an upgrade.
• Plans are tied to monthly sessions, so a traffic spike can push a site up a tier.

Ptengine

• Insight and Experience are priced separately; only the Insight prices were read, and a Bundle tab also exists.
• The monthly-billed price was shown as 59/month with no currency symbol, so the $49 annual figure is the one recorded.
• The price is per project and depends on monthly pageviews; when the limit is hit, tracking stops until the period resets.
• The Free plan keeps data for 1 month; Growth keeps it for 6 months.
