Crazy Egg: What It Is, Pricing & Alternatives

Overview

Crazy Egg dates from 2006 and is one of the earliest commercial heatmap tools^[10]. Its heatmaps include click, move and scroll maps plus Overlay and Confetti views, and the product adds session recordings, A/B testing, surveys, JavaScript error tracking, web analytics and funnels; the company says it is used on more than 449,000 websites^[24]. It is aimed at marketers rather than analysts.

Pricing is published and based on tracked pageviews, with all prices billed annually^[9]. Starter costs US$29 per month for 5,000 tracked pageviews and 50 recordings with six months of recording retention; Plus costs US$99 for 150,000 pageviews and 1,000 recordings; Pro costs US$249 for 500,000 pageviews and 5,000 recordings; and Enterprise costs US$599 for 1 million pageviews and 10,000 recordings, with two years of retention on the plans above Starter^[9]. Every plan includes a free trial^[9]. Crazy Egg is straightforward to use, but its entry plan is small, it has no free tier, and the annual billing requirement makes it less flexible than month-to-month competitors.
