+ +### Summary +PostHog is an open-source platform for product analytics. You can track events, watch session replays, roll out feature flags, run A/B tests, track errors, send surveys, and moreā€”all in one place. You can self-host it or use their cloud service. All users get a generous free tier every month. + +- Homepage: [**https://posthog.com**](https://posthog.com) +- Github: [**https://github.com/PostHog/posthog**](https://github.com/PostHog/posthog) +- License: **MIT** +- Rating: **4/5** + +### Pricing + +PostHog offers a generous free tier that includes 1 million events per month, along with 5,000 session recordings, 1 million feature flag requests, 100,000 error events, and 250 survey responses. This free tier covers 1 project with community support and 1 year of data retention. + +Beyond the free limits, PostHog operates on a pay-as-you-go model.

Depending on how many events you send you will pay X amount per event. + + +OpenPanel is more affordable than PostHog once you exceed 1 million events, making it a cost-effective choice for growing projects. While PostHog offers a broader range of features, OpenPanel stands out for its simplicity in self-hosting and provides the same capabilities whether you use the cloud or self-hosted version. Both platforms serve as robust product and web analytics tools, but OpenPanel's pricing and deployment flexibility make it especially appealing for teams seeking value and ease of use. + + +By bundling product analytics, web analytics, session replay, feature flags, experiments, error tracking and surveys, PostHog can replace Mixpanel, Amplitude, Google Analytics, Hotjar / FullStory and LaunchDarkly in one stack. + + +PostHog Open Source (MIT) includes almost every feature but is limited to a single project per instance and comes without an uptime guaranteeā€”ideal for hobby or proof-of-concept use. + + +The team recommends ā‰„ 4 vCPU, 16 GB RAM and 30 GB+ storage. Self-hosting works best up to ~300 k events / month; beyond that, PostHog Cloud scales for you. + + +Yes. PostHog Cloud offers a free tier (1 M events, 5 k recordings, 1 M flag API requests) with US or EU data residency, then pay-as-you-go pricing after the limits. + + + +## Plausible + +

However, OpenPanel goes further by including advanced product analytics featuresā€”such as event tracking, user journeys, and session replaysā€”making it suitable for teams that need deeper insights into user behavior, not just website traffic. If you want a simple, privacy-focused analytics tool, Plausible is great; if you need more advanced product analytics in addition to web stats, OpenPanel is a better fit. + + +Plausible does not use cookies or collect personal data. All tracking is aggregated and anonymized, making it GDPR and CCPA compliant by design. + + +Plausible is a privacy-first alternative to Google Analytics and other page-view focused trackers, giving you simple dashboards without cookies. + + +Everything you see in Plausible Cloudā€”real-time dashboards, goals, custom events, unlimited retention and team membersā€”is also in the self-hosted AGPL build. + + +Yes.
