5 Best Alternatives to Crazy Egg in 2026
By Noahlast updated pricing verified
From our data: 4 of the 5 alternatives listed here have a free tier (Microsoft Clarity, Mouseflow, FullStory, Contentsquare), and the 3 that publish a paid entry price, Mouseflow at $25/month, Lucky Orange at $32/month billed annually, and Contentsquare at $39/month billed yearly, bracket Crazy Egg's $29/month Starter plan, which is billed annually only, with a median of $32/month.
Microsoft Clarity
Mouseflow
Lucky Orange
FullStory
ContentsquareHow we picked
- Recording volume was compared first, because Crazy Egg's own listing calls Starter's 50 recordings a month thin: Microsoft Clarity records without a session limit for free, FullStory's free tier covers 30,000 sessions a month, Contentsquare's Free plan replays 5% of sessions up to 10,000 a month, Mouseflow's $25/month Essential plan records 5,000 sessions, and Lucky Orange's $32/month Build plan covers 3,500.
- Billing terms were checked against Crazy Egg's annual-only model, which means $348 upfront for Starter: Lucky Orange ($32 or $39 for Build) and Contentsquare ($39 or $49 for Growth) list both annual and month-to-month prices, Mouseflow publishes per-month prices from $25, Microsoft Clarity has nothing to bill, and FullStory quotes paid plans through sales.
- Review evidence was compared against Crazy Egg's 4.4/5 from 87 Capterra reviews: FullStory has 4.5/5 from 1,048 G2 and 4.6/5 from 67 Capterra reviews, Mouseflow's listing cites 4.6/5 from 689 G2 reviews, Contentsquare displays 4.6/5 on G2 and on Gartner Peer Insights with no review counts on record, and Microsoft Clarity has 4.4/5 from only 10 Product Hunt reviews; Lucky Orange has no rating on record.
- Pricing is on-site and dated: Crazy Egg's own tiers and Contentsquare's plans were re-verified 2026-10-26, Lucky Orange's 2026-09-15, and Microsoft Clarity's, Mouseflow's, and FullStory's 2026-09-14.
- Testing was checked because it is Crazy Egg's clearest edge: of the five alternatives, only Contentsquare lists A/B testing, and only on its custom-quoted Pro and Enterprise plans, while Crazy Egg includes unlimited A/B testing from its $99/month Plus plan, so every entry below names that gap where it matters.

Crazy Egg1Microsoft Clarity — best Crazy Egg alternative for marketing and product teams who want free, unlimited session recordings and heatmaps to complement traffic analytics they already run in Google Analytics
Microsoft Clarity is the best Crazy Egg alternative for teams that want session recordings and heatmaps with no cost, no traffic cap, and no annual contract. Clarity is free forever with no limits on traffic, sessions recorded, or sites tracked, while Crazy Egg's paid plans are billed annually only and start at $29/month ($348 upfront) for 5,000 pageviews and 50 recordings; Crazy Egg's free plan lists heatmaps, web analytics, conversion analytics, and surveys, but not recordings. Clarity adds rage-click and dead-click detection, AI Summaries and AI Chat for plain-language questions, and native mobile app tracking through Android, iOS, Flutter, React Native, and Cordova/Ionic SDKs, which Crazy Egg's web-only product doesn't reach. Crazy Egg is still the better choice for teams that test fixes rather than only find problems: Clarity has no A/B testing or popup CTAs, both of which Crazy Egg includes from its $99/month Plus plan, and Clarity's funnel reporting is thinner than dedicated tools, while Crazy Egg's $29 Starter already includes funnels and surveys. Clarity's 4.4/5 also comes from just 10 Product Hunt reviews, a thinner sample than Crazy Egg's 87 Capterra reviews, and as a free Microsoft product it carries no contractual SLA.
Compared to Crazy Egg: free forever with no traffic or session limits instead of annual-only plans from $29/month, native mobile-app SDKs beyond Crazy Egg's web-only product, but no A/B testing or popup CTAs
Wins:Free forever with no limits on traffic, sessions recorded, or sites tracked, against Crazy Egg's annual-only paid plans starting at $348/year for 50 recordings a month · Native mobile-app tracking via Android, iOS, Flutter, React Native, and Cordova/Ionic SDKs, beyond Crazy Egg's web-only product · AI Summaries, AI Chat, and rage-click and dead-click detection are included at no cost
Loses:No A/B testing or popup CTAs, both of which Crazy Egg includes from its $99/month Plus plan · Funnel reporting is thinner than dedicated tools by Clarity's own listing, while Crazy Egg's $29/month Starter includes funnels and surveys · 4.4/5 rating comes from just 10 Product Hunt reviews, a thinner sample than Crazy Egg's 87 Capterra reviews, and a free Microsoft product carries no contractual SLA
Pros
- Completely free with no traffic limits, session caps, or paid upgrade tier.
- Session recordings and heatmaps installable via a single JavaScript snippet or native SDKs for Android, iOS, Flutter, and React Native.
- AI Summaries and AI Chat surface behavior trends without manual review of individual recordings.
- Direct integration with Google Analytics to correlate GA segments with Clarity session recordings.
Cons
- No conversion funnel or cohort analysis depth comparable to dedicated product analytics tools like Mixpanel or Amplitude.
- Recording only begins after the tracking code is installed, with no retroactive historical data.
- Data ownership sits with Microsoft's free ecosystem product rather than a paid vendor with contractual SLAs.
- Session sampling and masking require manual configuration to avoid capturing sensitive form data.

2Mouseflow — best Crazy Egg alternative for digital marketers and CRO specialists who need session replay and heatmaps to diagnose where a specific page or checkout flow loses users, without paying per seat as the team grows
Mouseflow is the best Crazy Egg alternative for teams that want to watch far more recordings for the money. Mouseflow prices by recorded sessions, and its Essential plan records 5,000 sessions a month for $25/month, where Crazy Egg's Starter costs $29/month billed annually for 5,000 tracked pageviews and just 50 recordings. Even Mouseflow's Free plan records 500 sessions a month, while Crazy Egg's free plan lists heatmaps, analytics, and surveys but not recordings. Every Mouseflow tier includes form analytics, friction and rage-click detection, feedback surveys, and Mina AI with an MCP server for querying session data, and both tools allow unlimited team members on every plan. Mouseflow's listing cites 4.6/5 from 689 G2 reviews, against Crazy Egg's 4.4/5 from 87 Capterra reviews. Crazy Egg is still the better choice for agencies running many sites and for teams that test changes: Crazy Egg includes unlimited domains on every plan where Mouseflow caps website projects at 1 on Free and Essential and 5 on Premium, Crazy Egg's $99/month Plus plan adds unlimited A/B testing that Mouseflow's listing doesn't mention, and Crazy Egg stores Starter recordings for 6 months against Mouseflow Essential's 3 months of retention. Crazy Egg also never bills overages, pausing collection instead, a promise Mouseflow's listing doesn't make.
Compared to Crazy Egg: 5,000 recorded sessions for $25/month against 50 recordings on Crazy Egg's $29/month Starter, form analytics on every tier including Free, but website projects capped at 1 to 5 where Crazy Egg allows unlimited domains
Wins:Essential records 5,000 sessions a month for $25/month, against 50 recordings on Crazy Egg's $29/month Starter plan billed annually · Free plan records 500 sessions a month; Crazy Egg's free plan lists heatmaps, analytics, and surveys but not recordings · Form analytics, friction and rage-click detection, feedback surveys, and Mina AI with an MCP server are included on every tier · 4.6/5 from 689 G2 reviews per its own listing, against Crazy Egg's 4.4/5 from 87 Capterra reviews
Loses:Website projects are capped at 1 on Free and Essential, 2 on Advanced, and 5 on Premium, where Crazy Egg includes unlimited domains on every plan · No A/B testing in its listing, while Crazy Egg's $99/month Plus plan includes unlimited A/B tests and CTAs · Data retention is 1 month on Free and 3 months on Essential, against 6 months of recording storage on Crazy Egg's Starter and 2 years on Plus · No stated no-overage guarantee like Crazy Egg's promise to pause collection instead of billing extra
Pros
- Unlimited team members on every plan, including Free, avoids per-seat cost creep as teams grow.
- Session-based pricing is transparent and public, with no custom quote required below Enterprise.
- Ease of setup and quality of support both rate 9.0/10 in G2 reviews.
- Mina AI and the Mouseflow MCP Server add natural-language and programmatic access to session data beyond dashboard browsing.
Cons
- Data retention is short on lower tiers (1 month on Free, 3 months on Essential), limiting longer-term trend analysis.
- Website projects and conversion funnels are capped per tier (1 each on Free and Essential), forcing an upgrade for multi-site tracking.
- Enterprise pricing is fully custom, with no published numbers for teams above the Premium tier's 100,000-session limit.
- As with any session-replay tool, capturing full user interaction data raises privacy and compliance considerations that need separate review.
Pricing: Free tier · paid from $25/mo — $25/month for 5,000 recorded sessions (Essential) vs Crazy Egg's $29/month billed annually for 5,000 pageviews and 50 recordings (Starter) (verified )
3Lucky Orange — best Crazy Egg alternative for ecommerce and SaaS marketing teams under ~50,000 monthly sessions who want heatmaps, session recordings, and on-site surveys in one subscription instead of buying each separately
Lucky Orange is the best Crazy Egg alternative for marketing teams that want heatmaps, recordings, funnels, on-site surveys, and live chat in one subscription without paying a year upfront. Lucky Orange's Build plan is $32/month billed annually or $39 month to month, while every Crazy Egg paid plan is billed annually only, so Crazy Egg's $29 Starter means $348 upfront. Build covers 3,500 monthly sessions with recordings among its core features, where Crazy Egg Starter caps recordings at 50 a month, and Lucky Orange's Grow plan covers 10,000 sessions for $72/month billed annually against 1,000 recordings on Crazy Egg's $99/month Plus plan. Lucky Orange also includes live chat, which Crazy Egg's listing doesn't, and its dynamic heatmaps capture clicks inside dropdowns and pop-ups; both tools allow unlimited team members. Crazy Egg is still the better choice for agencies and for testing: it includes unlimited domains where Lucky Orange charges $5 per additional site, adds unlimited A/B testing from the Plus plan that Lucky Orange doesn't list, and keeps a free plan where Lucky Orange offers only a 7-day trial. Crazy Egg's Starter also includes AI analysis of heatmaps and recordings, while Lucky Orange sells Discovery AI as a paid add-on, and Lucky Orange has no external rating on record against Crazy Egg's 4.4/5 from 87 Capterra reviews.
Compared to Crazy Egg: a month-to-month option ($39 for Build) where Crazy Egg bills annually only, 3,500 monthly sessions on the $32 Build plan against Crazy Egg Starter's 50 recordings, but no free plan and $5 per additional site
Wins:Build is $32/month billed annually or $39 month to month, where every Crazy Egg paid plan is billed annually only ($348 upfront for Starter) · Build covers 3,500 monthly sessions against 50 recordings a month on Crazy Egg's Starter, and Grow covers 10,000 sessions for $72/month against 1,000 recordings on Crazy Egg's $99 Plus · Live chat is included on every paid plan alongside heatmaps, recordings, funnels, and surveys · Dynamic heatmaps capture clicks inside dropdowns and pop-ups
Loses:No free plan, only a 7-day trial, where Crazy Egg has a no-credit-card free plan and a 30-day trial on every paid plan · Additional websites cost $5/site, where Crazy Egg includes unlimited domains on every plan · No A/B testing in its listing, and Discovery AI is a paid add-on, while Crazy Egg's Starter includes AI analysis of heatmaps and recordings · No external rating on record, against Crazy Egg's 4.4/5 from 87 Capterra reviews
Pros
- Heatmaps, session recordings, funnels, surveys, and live chat are included on every paid plan with no per-feature upsell
- Unlimited team members on every tier, including the entry-level Build plan
- Dynamic heatmaps capture clicks inside dropdowns and pop-ups that some competing heatmap tools miss
- 7-day free trial gives full access to every feature, including Discovery AI, before billing starts
Cons
- No permanent free plan, only a 7-day trial before a paid plan is required
- Discovery AI is a paid add-on on top of every plan rather than a bundled feature
- Pricing jumps sharply between tiers, from $199/month (Expand, annual) to $839/month (Scale, annual)
- Additional websites cost $5/site on top of the base plan price
Pricing: From $32/mo — $32/month billed annually or $39 monthly for 3,500 sessions (Build) vs Crazy Egg's $29/month billed annually for 5,000 pageviews and 50 recordings (Starter) (verified )
4FullStory — best Crazy Egg alternative for product and UX teams who need to watch actual user sessions to diagnose friction, not just aggregate funnel metrics
FullStory is the best Crazy Egg alternative for product and UX teams that need to find out what happened in sessions nobody flagged in advance. FullStory captures every session by default with no pre-defined event tracking, so a team can search months later for every user who hit an error and replay those sessions. Its free tier covers 30,000 sessions a month with 12 months of analytics retention for up to 10 users and no credit card, against Crazy Egg's free plan, which lists heatmaps, analytics, and surveys but not recordings, and Crazy Egg's Starter at $29/month billed annually for 50 recordings. FullStory's review base is also deeper: 4.5/5 from 1,048 G2 reviews and 4.6/5 from 67 Capterra reviews, against Crazy Egg's 4.4/5 from 87 Capterra reviews. Crazy Egg is still the better choice for marketers who need a known price and testing tools: every FullStory paid tier (Business, Advanced, Enterprise) is sales-quoted, and reviewers report costs rising sharply past the 30,000-session free quota, while Crazy Egg publishes every plan from $29 to $599/month and never bills overages. Crazy Egg also includes A/B testing and popup CTAs from its $99/month Plus plan, unlimited domains, and unlimited team members, where FullStory's free tier stops at 10 users and StoryAI requires the quote-only Advanced tier.
Compared to Crazy Egg: retroactive search and replay of any past session, a free tier covering 30,000 sessions a month with 12 months of retention, but sales-quoted paid plans where Crazy Egg publishes every tier from $29 to $599/month
Wins:Captures every session by default, so any past behavior can be searched and replayed without having been instrumented first · Free tier covers 30,000 sessions a month with 12 months of analytics retention and no credit card; Crazy Egg's free plan lists no recordings and its $29/month Starter includes 50 · 4.5/5 from 1,048 G2 reviews and 4.6/5 from 67 Capterra reviews, against Crazy Egg's 4.4/5 from 87 Capterra reviews
Loses:Business, Advanced, and Enterprise are all sales-quoted, and reviewers report costs escalating past the 30,000-session free quota; Crazy Egg publishes every plan and never bills overages · No A/B testing or popup CTAs in its listing, which Crazy Egg includes from its $99/month Plus plan · Free tier stops at 10 users and StoryAI requires the quote-only Advanced tier, while Crazy Egg allows unlimited team members and domains on every plan
Pros
- Retroactive session search finds and replays any past user behavior without pre-defining tracked events.
- StoryAI answers behavioral questions in plain language instead of requiring a custom dashboard build.
- Free tier covers 30,000 sessions/month and 12 months of retention with no credit card required.
- Reviewers consistently rate the interface as intuitive enough for non-technical team members to use directly.
Cons
- No published pricing above the free tier; Business, Advanced, and Enterprise all require a sales quote.
- Reviewers report costs escalate sharply once a site outgrows the 30,000-session free tier.
- High-traffic sites generate enough session volume that finding actionable insights can become overwhelming.
- Mobile analytics is a separate add-on rather than included by default.
Pricing: Free — Free for 30,000 sessions/month, then sales-quoted, vs Crazy Egg's published $29-$599/month plans billed annually (verified )
5Contentsquare — best Crazy Egg alternative for finding where and why visitors drop out of key website or app journeys by combining heatmaps, session replays and funnels on one dataset
Contentsquare is the best Crazy Egg alternative for enterprise and mid-market brands that have outgrown heatmap reports and want software that points to which friction to fix first. Contentsquare captures every interaction on websites and mobile apps without manual event tagging, its zone-based heatmaps attach engagement or revenue metrics to each page element, and Sense AI summarizes replays and heatmaps and suggests what to fix, rather than leaving an analyst to read recordings one by one. Contentsquare also offers product analytics, error and performance monitoring, Conversation Intelligence, and Voice of Customer, where Crazy Egg is a web-only CRO tool. The entry point is generous on volume: Contentsquare's Free plan counts up to 200,000 sessions a month and replays 5% of them, up to 10,000, against no recordings listed on Crazy Egg's free plan and 50 a month on its $29/month Starter, and Growth costs $39/month billed yearly or $49 month to month for 7,000 sessions, where every Crazy Egg paid plan is billed annually only. Crazy Egg is still the better choice for teams that test changes and want enterprise features at a listed price: Crazy Egg includes unlimited A/B testing from its $99/month Plus plan and SAML SSO on its $599/month Enterprise plan, both of which Contentsquare keeps for custom-quoted Pro and Enterprise plans. Crazy Egg's Plus also stores recordings for 2 years against 13 months of data on Contentsquare Growth, and Crazy Egg's learning curve is rated low against Contentsquare's moderate.
Compared to Crazy Egg: AI-prioritized friction analysis across web and mobile apps with no manual tagging, a free plan counting up to 200,000 sessions a month with month-to-month billing on Growth, but A/B testing only on custom-quoted plans where Crazy Egg includes it from $99/month
Wins:Sense AI summarizes replays and heatmaps and suggests what to fix, and zone-based heatmaps attach engagement or revenue metrics to each page element, beyond reading heatmaps and recordings by hand · Tag-free capture across websites and mobile apps, plus product analytics, error and performance monitoring, Conversation Intelligence, and Voice of Customer; Crazy Egg is web-only · Free plan counts up to 200,000 sessions a month and replays 5% of them, up to 10,000, where Crazy Egg's free plan lists no recordings and its $29/month Starter includes 50 · Growth can be paid month to month at $49 for 7,000 sessions ($39 billed yearly), where every Crazy Egg paid plan is billed annually, $348 upfront for Starter
Loses:A/B testing, APIs, alerts, and SAML SSO require custom-quoted Pro or Enterprise plans, while Crazy Egg lists A/B testing from $99/month and SAML SSO at $599/month, billed annually · Learning curve rated moderate against Crazy Egg's low, and Crazy Egg installs from one snippet or Shopify, WordPress, and Google Tag Manager integrations · Free keeps 1 month of data and Growth 13 months, against 6 months of recording storage on Crazy Egg's $29 Starter and 2 years on Plus · Growth climbs to $739/month on monthly billing at 200,000 sessions and quotes anything larger, where Crazy Egg lists plans up to 1,000,000 pageviews at $599/month billed annually
Pros
- The Free plan includes up to 200,000 sessions a month with heatmaps, funnels, error monitoring and basic surveys, against the 35 sessions a day Hotjar's old free plan captured.
- Automatic, tag-free capture lets teams analyze clicks, scrolls and form interactions retroactively without defining events in advance.
- Sense AI answers plain-language questions and summarizes replays and heatmaps, and the MCP server connects the data to ChatGPT, Claude or Copilot.
- One platform spans heatmaps, session replay, journeys, error and performance monitoring, surveys, product analytics and A/B testing, and Hotjar users log in with their existing credentials.
- Rated 4.6/5 on G2 and 4.6/5 on Gartner Peer Insights, the scores Contentsquare displays on its site.
Cons
- Free keeps only 1 month of data and records replays for 5% of sessions, capped at 10,000 a month.
- Growth pricing scales steeply with traffic, from $49/month at 7,000 sessions to $739/month at 200,000 on monthly billing, and larger volumes need a sales quote.
- APIs, alerts, SAML SSO, Data Connect and revenue attribution are reserved for the custom-quoted Pro and Enterprise plans.
- Hotjar is no longer sold on its own, so teams that wanted a simple standalone tool must adopt Contentsquare's broader platform and session-based plans.
Pricing: Free tier · paid from $39/mo — Free up to 200,000 sessions, then Growth from $39/month billed yearly or $49 monthly for 7,000 sessions, vs Crazy Egg's free plan and $29-$599/month plans billed annually (verified )

Frequently asked questions
Is there a free alternative to Crazy Egg?
- Yes, Microsoft Clarity is free forever with no traffic limits, and FullStory, Mouseflow, and Contentsquare have free tiers too, all four with session recordings, which Crazy Egg's own free plan doesn't list. FullStory's free tier covers 30,000 sessions a month, Mouseflow's 500, and Contentsquare's up to 200,000 with replays on 5% of them, while Lucky Orange has no free tier.
What is the closest alternative to Crazy Egg?
- Lucky Orange is the closest match: both are web-only CRO tools that combine heatmaps, session recordings, funnels, and on-site surveys with unlimited team members, at entry prices of $29 and $32/month billed annually. The differences are billing and testing, since Lucky Orange offers month-to-month billing and live chat, while Crazy Egg has a free plan, unlimited domains, and A/B testing from $99/month.
Can Microsoft Clarity replace Crazy Egg?
- Yes for teams that mainly need heatmaps and session recordings, since Clarity offers both free with no traffic cap and adds native mobile app tracking. Teams that rely on Crazy Egg's A/B testing or popup CTAs, which start on its $99/month Plus plan, should stay, because Clarity's listing includes neither.
Is there a cheaper alternative to Crazy Egg?
- Microsoft Clarity is cheapest at $0 with no paid tier, and among paid plans Mouseflow's Essential at $25/month undercuts Crazy Egg's $29/month Starter while recording 5,000 sessions against Starter's 50 recordings. Lucky Orange's Build plan costs slightly more at $32/month billed annually for 3,500 sessions, and it is also sold month to month at $39.
Which Crazy Egg alternative is best for mobile app tracking?
- Microsoft Clarity, which tracks Android, iOS, Flutter, React Native, and Cordova/Ionic apps through dedicated SDKs alongside its web tracking, all for free. Contentsquare also covers mobile apps with tag-free capture through an SDK, and FullStory sells mobile analytics as an add-on.
Do any Crazy Egg alternatives include A/B testing?
- Only Contentsquare, and only on its custom-quoted Pro and Enterprise plans, while Crazy Egg includes unlimited A/B testing from its $99/month Plus plan with device-type targeting. Teams that test page variants regularly lose that capability by switching to Clarity, Mouseflow, Lucky Orange, or FullStory, or need a separate testing tool alongside them.
What happened to Hotjar?
- Hotjar is no longer sold on its own: it has been folded into Contentsquare, new accounts cannot be created, and hotjar.com has redirected to Contentsquare since mid-August 2026, so Hotjar is not listed as a Crazy Egg alternative. Hotjar's heatmaps, recordings, and surveys continue in Contentsquare's Free and Growth plans; teams that want another free heatmap and recording tool can use Microsoft Clarity, which has no traffic cap, or Mouseflow's free plan at 500 sessions a month.
