Amplitude — Enterprise-grade product analytics platform for behavioral insights, experimentation, and growth.
Verdict at a glance
Overall rating: 4.5/5 ★★★★½
Standout: Deep behavioral and product analytics with experimentation and CDP features at scale.
Watch out: usage-based pricing is hard to forecast once you pass the free allowance, and the depth is overkill for simple needs.
The product-analytics platform of choice for scaling, data-driven product and growth teams that need depth and experimentation.

Overview
Amplitude is an enterprise-grade product analytics platform for behavioral insights — funnels, retention, journeys — plus built-in experimentation and CDP-style audiences, making it a hub for data-driven product and growth teams.
It has a free tier covering 2 million events a month forever with unlimited seats. The trade-offs: pricing is metered on event volume rather than a published seat rate, so the bill is hard to forecast and real costs often exceed what a comparison table suggests, and the depth is more than small sites need.

Recent changes
Amplitude has moved to usage-based pricing. As verified on 2026-09-10, the Plus plan now starts at $0 with the first 2 million events a month free, scaling to 70 million events, and Growth is custom-priced on event volume. The flat $49 a month Plus rate quoted in older comparisons no longer applies — what you pay is now a function of event volume rather than a tier, so model your monthly events before budgeting. Every plan now includes the full platform and unlimited seats, and the free tier carries 2 million events a month forever rather than a 50,000-MTU cap.
Frequently asked questions
Does Amplitude have a free plan?
Yes. Amplitude’s free plan covers 2 million events a month forever with unlimited seats. Plus also starts at $0 with the first 2 million events free and meters on volume above that, so there is no published monthly rate to quote; Growth and Enterprise are priced on event volume by sales.
How does Amplitude pricing scale as you grow?
Amplitude now meters on events rather than monthly tracked users, so your bill tracks how much your product is used rather than how many people use it. Because there is no published rate above the free 2 million events a month, model your expected event volume before committing — real-world costs often run well above what a comparison table implies once you move past the free allowance.
What is Amplitude not good for?
Amplitude is built for deep behavioral and product analytics, so it’s overkill for teams that just need simple website traffic stats (GA4 or Plausible are a better fit), and its complexity has a real learning curve for beginners.
What is Amplitude’s rating on G2 and Capterra?
As of 2026-08-07, Amplitude holds 4.5/5 on G2 (2,971 reviews) and 4.6/5 on Capterra (68 reviews). See the ratings table above for links to the live pages.
