6 free alternatives to Mixpanel

If you need more than 1M events a month, more than 10K session replays, or more than 5 saved reports per seat, Mixpanel's free tier stops being enough and it is time to look elsewhere.

Where Mixpanel's free tier stops

Mixpanel Mixpanel's free tier is perpetual and does not require a credit card, but it is still capped. The plan includes up to 1M monthly events, up to 10K monthly session replays, and up to 5 saved reports per seat, with unlimited seats otherwise. That means the free tier is fine for small teams that can stay inside those limits, but it becomes restrictive as soon as event volume rises, replay review gets heavy, or a team needs more saved reporting depth without paying.

The alternatives

Amplitude

FTV 66 / 100

Amplitude's free tier includes 10K monthly tracked users, up to 2M events, Session Replay, out-of-the-box analytics and templates, unlimited feature flags, Web Experimentation, AI Feedback, and unlimited sources and destinations. The main free advantage over Mixpanel is event volume, since it doubles the monthly event ceiling while also adding experimentation and feedback tools. It falls short on saved-report depth, because the supplied free-tier details do not include a saved reports allowance like Mixpanel's 5 per seat. Switch if your main pain point is hitting Mixpanel's 1M-event cap and you want a broader analytics suite without paying yet.

  • Beats Mixpanel: Up to 2M events and broader free experimentation and feedback features.
  • Falls short: No stated free saved-reports allowance like Mixpanel's 5 per seat.
  • Who should switch: Switch here if you are event-heavy and want analytics plus experimentation in one free plan.

LogRocket

FTV 56 / 100

LogRocket's free offering is a 14-day full-feature trial that unlocks all LogRocket features, and no credit card is required. That makes it very broad for short evaluation or for shipping a specific debugging effort, with replay, analytics, logs, errors, performance telemetry, funnels, path analysis, and heatmaps all available during the trial. Its main edge over Mixpanel is feature breadth for a short window, especially if you care about replay plus logs and errors together. It falls short on permanence, because the offer ends after 14 days. Switch if you need a fast, no-card trial to test a replay-first workflow before committing.

  • Beats Mixpanel: All features are available during the 14-day trial.
  • Falls short: It is time-limited, while Mixpanel's free tier is free forever.
  • Who should switch: Switch here if you need a short, no-card evaluation of replay and debugging tools.

Logspot

FTV 57 / 100

Logspot's free tier includes 5,000 events per month, 1 domain, 1 team member, core analytics and dashboards, funnels and user journeys, and community support. It is a simple starter plan for a single-site or single-person setup, with enough structure to track basic product and web behavior without a heavy setup. Compared with Mixpanel, it falls far short on monthly event capacity and team scale, but it may be easier to adopt if you only need one domain and one operator. Switch if you want a lightweight analytics setup for a small site rather than a higher-volume product analytics workspace.

  • Beats Mixpanel: Simpler fit for a single domain and a single team member.
  • Falls short: Far lower event allowance than Mixpanel's 1M monthly events.
  • Who should switch: Switch here if you only need basic analytics for one site and one person.

Statsig

FTV 74 / 100

Statsig's free Developer tier includes 2 million events per month, unlimited flag and config checks, 50,000 session replays per month, A/B tests and experimentation, feature flags and config management, product and web analytics, 1-year analytics retention, and unlimited seats. The free allowance is stronger than Mixpanel's on both events and session replays, and it adds flags plus experimentation that Mixpanel's free tier does not list. It falls short on the simplicity of a pure analytics setup because it includes a broader product-development stack. Switch if you want free analytics plus flags and experiments and can use a more platform-like workflow.

  • Beats Mixpanel: 2M events, 50K session replays, and free experimentation plus feature flags.
  • Falls short: Broader platform scope may be more than a team wants for plain analytics.
  • Who should switch: Switch here if you want more free headroom and also need flags or experimentation.

Heap

FTV 54 / 100

Heap's free tier includes core analytics charts, unlimited enrichment sources, Guides integrations, 6 months of data history, SSO, and up to 10K monthly sessions. It is useful when you care more about account setup and data enrichment than about raw event volume. Against Mixpanel, it falls short on session volume because the free cap is only 10K monthly sessions, and the supplied free-tier details do not promise the same event allowance or saved-report depth. Its main advantage is SSO and enrichment sources on the free plan. Switch if your team needs basic analytics with stronger identity or governance-related setup.

  • Beats Mixpanel: Unlimited enrichment sources and SSO on the free plan.
  • Falls short: Only 10K monthly sessions, so it offers less free usage headroom than Mixpanel.
  • Who should switch: Switch here if enrichment and SSO matter more than high event volume.

Fullstory

FTV 60 / 100

FullstoryFree includes 30,000 monthly sessions, 12 months of analytics retention, session replay, basic analytics, debugging tools, and up to 10 users. That is a useful free plan for teams that want more replay and retention headroom than Mixpanel's 10K replay cap, especially when debugging and user-level review are central. It falls short on seats, because it tops out at 10 users, and the supplied free-tier details do not mention the same report-saving flexibility Mixpanel gives. Switch if replay volume and retention matter more than unlimited-seat access.

  • Beats Mixpanel: 30K monthly sessions and 12 months of retention.
  • Falls short: Up to 10 users, so it is less open-ended on team size than Mixpanel.
  • Who should switch: Switch here if your main limit is replay volume and you do not need unlimited seats.

Two quick picks

Closest drop-in

Statsig

Statsig is the closest drop-in for teams that want to keep a similar product analytics workflow while getting more free headroom. It covers analytics, session replays, and unlimited seats, and it adds flags and experimentation, so the switch is usually about expanding capability rather than changing the whole process.

Most free headroom

Statsig

Statsig gives the most free headroom because it raises the event cap to 2M, the replay cap to 50K, and keeps seats unlimited. That combination leaves the most room before a team has to pay, especially for builders who run analytics and experimentation together.

Frequently asked questions

Statsig includes 50K session replays per month on the free tier, which is the highest stated replay allowance in this set.

Which alternative is the closest match if I want product analytics plus experimentation?

Statsig is the closest fit because it combines product analytics, web analytics, session replays, feature flags, and A/B testing on the free tier.

Bottom line

For most teams leaving Mixpanel's free tier because of usage ceilings, Statsig is the best next stop. It matches the core analytics use case, adds experimentation and feature flags, and gives more room on both events and session replays before any payment is needed. If your priority is simply staying free for longer without changing how you work, Statsig is the safest default choice. If you only need a short evaluation, LogRocket is the better trial-style option.
