Why people look for a Canny alternative
Per-tracked-user pricing is a growth tax: the more your feedback board succeeds, the more you pay. In 2025 Canny moved everyone to this model and retired its old generous free plan.
Canny's pricing today: Canny's free plan caps at 25 tracked users and it bills per tracked user, so every voter and commenter adds to your bill. Paid plans start around $79/mo (billed yearly) and scale steeply with your user count.
