The short version

  • 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; Kameleoon no rate card is published. Reported entry pricing around several hundred euros a month for the limited prompt-based tier comes from third parties rather than Kameleoon, so any budget you build before contacting sales is a guess.
  • They diverge on capability: Crazy Egg covers Heatmaps, Kameleoon covers Visual A/B test editor.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

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

Kameleoon

  • No rate card is published. Reported entry pricing around several hundred euros a month for the limited prompt-based tier comes from third parties rather than Kameleoon, so any budget you build before contacting sales is a guess.
  • Web experimentation, feature experimentation and personalisation are licensed as separate capabilities, so the unified platform story costs materially more than the entry configuration most buyers are first quoted.
  • The partner and agency ecosystem is concentrated in France and continental Europe; a buyer in North America or Asia will find fewer implementation specialists and less community knowledge than for Optimizely or VWO.
  • The integration catalogue is smaller than the market leaders, so a stack built on less common analytics or CDP tooling may need custom work that a larger vendor would cover natively.
  • Client-side visual testing still carries the structural problems of the approach, including performance cost and single-page-application fragility; the anti-flicker engine reduces the symptom but does not remove the dependency on the DOM staying stable.
