What usually pushes teams to look for a Hotjar alternative?

Teams face new procurement and packaging as Hotjar moves into Contentsquare, while funnels, error tracking, and prioritization can sit in other tiers or products. Many want to choose their stack rather than be migrated into one.

Where FullSession is stronger

An AI that commits to a number

Lift AI ranks issues by revenue impact, predicts lift before the sprint, and measures the actual result against baseline.

A validation window that holds up

Lift AI finds the shortest valid window for each funnel, avoiding false credit from other releases.

One platform, not a product suite

Replay, heatmaps, funnels, errors, feedback, and Lift AI stay in one product and one contract.

Enterprise-ready when you need it

Capture masking, RBAC, SSO/SAML, audit logs, retention, security reviews, and an SLA.

Integrations are not the trade-off

Connect Adobe, Salesforce, Snowflake, BigQuery, Segment, Tealium, and more; missing integrations are built on request.

Pricing you can model today

Transparent, session-based, unlimited seats on paid plans, with a savings calculator on the pricing page.

Choose FullSession if
