Heatmap and session replay tools give you ways to review visitor activity through visual patterns and recorded sessions. Compared on heatmap types, session recordings, and mobile capture, they can help you judge which kinds of interactions are visible. Monthly session limits and recording retention show how much activity can be captured and kept, while rage-click detection adds another feature to consider. Free plans and paid-from pricing provide cost details. Microsoft Clarity, Crazy Egg, and Zoho PageSense are among the entries to compare. Weigh their published features and limits against the questions you want to investigate about a site or product.
