Which one is for you
Pick Userflow if

Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if your product is a native iOS or Android app
- Watch out: no plan prices were readable, and pricing depends on monthly active users
- Watch out: plan changes are made by Userflow's team on request, not self-serve

Pick Whatfix if
- Fits if you roll out business software and want to train people inside it
- Works for teams that buy through a sales call
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you want a price first, since none is published
- Tight on Standard, which is limited to 2 integrations

- Watch out: web, desktop and mobile are separate platform plans
- Not for you if you want a quick trial, as it's a request form with terms unstated

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.
