The short version

  • Only Mouseflow has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Mouseflow the free plan is 500 sessions a month, one website and one month of data retention; TetraScience pricing is scoped on connected instruments and data engineering effort rather than a published unit, so the cost of adding a new laboratory or an acquired site is impossible to forecast without going back to the vendor.
  • They diverge on capability: Mouseflow covers Session Replay, TetraScience covers Instrument connectors.
  • 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.

Mouseflow

  • The free plan is 500 sessions a month, one website and one month of data retention
  • Data retention is tiered, from 1 month on free to 12 months on Premium at $319 a month
  • Essential at $25 a month covers a single website project
  • SSO, custom privacy settings and priority support are on the higher tiers only
  • The 14 day money-back guarantee applies to annual subscriptions and excludes Enterprise

TetraScience

  • Pricing is scoped on connected instruments and data engineering effort rather than a published unit, so the cost of adding a new laboratory or an acquired site is impossible to forecast without going back to the vendor.
  • Value depends entirely on connector coverage for your actual instrument estate; an instrument type without an existing productised connector becomes a services engagement with its own timeline and cost.
  • The GxP package is a separate annual subscription rather than an included capability, so a company that starts in research and later needs regulated use faces an additional commercial line and a validation exercise.
  • It is infrastructure with no end-user application of its own, so the business case rests on downstream analytics and AI work that has to be resourced and delivered separately before anyone sees a benefit.
  • Deployment is a multi-year programme touching instruments, networks, validated systems and site IT, and organisations consistently underestimate the internal effort required from people who also have day jobs running the laboratory.
