LogRocket vs Microsoft Clarity

From $176 per month (Core, around 25k sessions)

Free

Priced on the sessions you capture — analytics, logs and errors are unlimited. Plans are Core, Pro and Enterprise, and Pro is included free above 100k sessions a month.

Free with no traffic cap. Microsoft uses aggregated data to improve its products, which is the trade you are making.

14-day trial with full features; there is no permanently free plan.

Everything, unlimited, at any traffic level.

• The technical context makes a support ticket directly actionable by a developer.
• Error tracking and replay in one tool can replace a separate error monitor.
• State-management integration is unmatched for React and Redux applications.

• No cost and no sampling at any volume — nothing else in the category comes close on price.
• Rage-click and dead-click detection surfaces real usability problems immediately.
• Easy to install and reasonable default masking of sensitive fields.

• Session pricing escalates on high-traffic consumer sites, and there is no free tier to grow into — only a 14-day trial.
• Recording network payloads requires careful configuration to avoid capturing secrets.
• Less suited to marketing and conversion analysis than a dedicated experience-analytics tool.

• Data goes to Microsoft, which is a real consideration for GDPR-sensitive deployments.
• Filtering and segmentation are shallower than paid tools.
• Support is community-based and the roadmap is not yours to influence.

Engineering teams that want to debug production issues from a recording.

Almost anyone starting with session replay, and anyone whose paid tool is mainly used for basic replay.
