Current pricing — PostHog vs Mixpanel
Which is cheaper for you?
Decision matrix based on verified June 2026 pricing. Assumes per-seat/monthly billing unless noted.
Mixpanel Starter (free, 100k tracked users) beats PostHog Free (1M events/mo) for solo devs because user-based pricing is more predictable. If you have under 100k users, Mixpanel Starter is free forever.
PostHog Free at 1M events/mo is more generous than Mixpanel Starter at 100k users. PostHog includes session replay and feature flags (paid add-ons in Mixpanel). PostHog is a better value at the free tier.
Mixpanel Growth at $20/mo is dramatically cheaper than PostHog Growth at $50/mo. At 25+ users with under 1M events, Mixpanel is the better budget option. PostHog’s session replay and feature flags add value but cost.
Mixpanel Enterprise (custom) is more established for large-scale analytics with dedicated support. PostHog open-source can be self-hosted, which some enterprises prefer — but managed Mixpanel Enterprise is more turnkey.
PostHog is open-source (self-host option), has a better SDK ecosystem, and includes session replay, feature flags, and experimentation in one platform. Mixpanel is analytics-only. PostHog wins on developer experience.
Mixpanel wins for budget-conscious teams at scale. PostHog wins for developer-centric teams wanting an all-in-one product analytics platform.
