All six Tracwell event allowances include goals, funnels, sessions, API and MCP access, and seats based on event allowance. Pageviews and custom events share the allowance.

PostHog bills product analytics per event after a free 1M each month: $0.00005 per event up to 2M, then $0.0000343 up to 15M. Session replay and its other products are billed separately. Its free plan keeps one year of data and paid usage keeps seven; Tracwell keeps one to four years by allowance. Tracwell stops new collection at its limit instead of billing usage.

PostHog’s first 1M events each month are free. Tracwell has a 7-day free trial and no free plan, so it is not cheaper below 1M events.

✓ Available− Mode, plan, or setup requirement× Not offered? Not confirmed in reviewed documentation

Tracwell sessions show recorded event timelines, not screen recordings. Private mode uses daily visitor estimates; returning-visitor continuity and optional identification require Product mode. Revenue attribution requires verified backend events; unmatched payments remain unattributed.

Availability does not imply identical reporting or counting rules. “Not documented” means we could not confirm an equivalent feature in the sources reviewed, not that the tool cannot support it.

FAQ

## Before you decide.

**How should I evaluate Tracwell against PostHog?**

Send the same signup and purchase events to both products. Build the funnel you check every week, then compare the time it took, how each counts visitors without cookies, and what your bill looks like at your real monthly event volume.

**Does installing Tracwell automatically import payments?**

No. Revenue tracking requires verified purchase and refund events from your backend in Product mode. A matching session connects a payment to that session’s source; unmatched payments remain unattributed.

**How do pricing and usage compare?**

PostHog bills product analytics per event after a free 1M each month: $0.00005 per event up to 2M, then $0.0000343 up to 15M. Session replay and its other products are billed separately. Its free plan keeps one year of data and paid usage keeps seven; Tracwell keeps one to four years by allowance. Tracwell stops new collection at its limit instead of billing usage. PostHog’s first 1M events each month are free. Tracwell has a 7-day free trial and no free plan, so it is not cheaper below 1M events.
