Reviewer scorecard
“The query builder is powerful and the SDK integration is clean. Better for product analytics than Google Analytics.”
“Self-hostable, open source, and genuinely all-in-one. Replaces Amplitude + LaunchDarkly + Hotjar at a fraction of the cost.”
“The free tier with 20M events is generous. Best pure product analytics tool if you don't need session replay.”
“The free tier is absurdly generous. Open source means you can audit exactly what data goes where.”
“Not relevant for creative work. It's a product analytics tool for PMs and engineers.”
“PostHog is the open-source Amplitude. The all-in-one approach reduces tool sprawl and keeps data unified.”
