Instead of PostHog

PostHog alternatives

PostHog is a broad product platform: it combines product and web analytics, funnels, heatmaps, user paths, and session replay with feature flags, event routing, and a data warehouse. It also has a desktop coding agent that can use product signals to investigate issues and create pull requests. Its free plan includes defined usage allowances, but free-plan events and metadata are retained for one year and recordings for one month. Paid plans guarantee seven-year retention, while pay-as-you-go billing and support terms may not suit every team.

A switch can make sense if you need a narrower analytics focus, different retention terms, or a specific app or website workflow. PostHog covers mobile, desktop, web, API, and self-hosted use; alternatives here range from app-focused analytics to website reporting and self-hosted analytics. Compare event and funnel analysis with the engagement or developer tools you need, then weigh platform coverage, deployment, retention, trial availability, and price. The key choice is whether PostHog’s wider product-building suite is worth keeping or a more focused tool better fits your work.
