Where each one falls short

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

PostHog

  • The free tier covers 1M events, 5K web session recordings and 2.5K mobile recordings per month before usage-based billing starts
  • Accounts without a card on file are limited to 1 project; adding one raises it to 6
  • Data retention is 1 year until a card is added, which extends it to 7 years
  • Support is community-only until the account is on a paid plan
  • Error tracking is capped at 100K exceptions and surveys at 1500 responses per month on the free tier

Roadmunk

  • Starter plan at $19/editor/month allows only 3 reviewers; additional reviewers cost $5 each per month
  • Enterprise plan requires custom pricing contact; feature scope and support terms not published
  • Two-way Jira and Azure DevOps sync available only on Business tier and above at additional $9/collaborator/month
  • Pricing model based per-editor seats rather than per-organisation, scaling costs significantly for larger teams
