Mouseflow vs Crazy Egg
Feature checklists rarely decide anything. What decides it is the pricing metric, who has to write the tests, and which limitation you can live with.
Entry price
From $25 per month (Essential; Advanced $109, Premium $319)
Free tierFrom $29 per month (annual billing, 5k pageviews)
Trial onlyWhat drives the bill
The metric that actually scales your invoice.
Priced in USD by monthly recordings, with up to about 35% off on annual billing. EU-based with GDPR-oriented data handling.
Tracked pageviews are the meter, and the entry plan's 5,000 a month is small enough that a modest marketing site outgrows it. Recording and heatmap-report counts are separate caps on the same plan.
Free tier
Free plan for limited traffic.
Free trial on every plan; no permanently free tier.

Strengths
- Friction scoring surfaces the sessions worth watching instead of leaving you to browse.
- Form analytics pinpoint the exact field causing abandonment.
- EU company with straightforward GDPR positioning.
- Heatmaps, recordings, surveys and A/B testing in one subscription rather than three.
- The A/B editor is usable by a marketer without an engineer, which is the whole point of buying it.
- Twenty years of the same product, which is unusual reassurance in this category.
Limitations
- Web only.
- Fewer product-analytics capabilities than Heap or Amplitude.
- Recording limits on lower tiers bite on moderate traffic.
- Pageview-metered, and pageviews are the thing you least control — a good week of traffic is an overage.
- Session replay is shallower than FullStory or LogRocket: no console, no network, no error correlation.
- Web only. There is no mobile SDK.
