The short version

  • Only HeyGen has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Crazy Egg the Starter plan at $29 a month covers 5,000 pageviews and 50 snapshots, which a modest site exhausts quickly; HeyGen avatar movements feel unnatural in longer videos and repetitive with limited emotional expression, appearing stiff and robotic after 60 seconds
  • They diverge on capability: Crazy Egg covers Heatmaps, HeyGen covers AI avatars.

Where each one falls short

Crazy Egg

  • The Starter plan at $29 a month covers 5,000 pageviews and 50 snapshots, which a modest site exhausts quickly
  • All plans are billed annually rather than monthly
  • There is no free tier, only a trial
  • Reaching 500,000 pageviews means the Pro plan at $249 a month

HeyGen

  • Avatar movements feel unnatural in longer videos and repetitive with limited emotional expression, appearing stiff and robotic after 60 seconds
  • Cannot reliably choreograph natural interactions like walking through a room, using devices, or drinking from objects
  • Billing gap between marketed unlimited plans and actual credit consumption is highest complaint with lost credits on failed renders
  • Inconsistent lip sync and voice quality with slow processing and occasional moderation blocks without explanation
  • Customer support described as non-existent with no way to complain or reach a human representative
