Just use Amplitude
- alex_lav 3y agoLast I used Amplitude it was insanely expensive. Is that not still the case?
- dylan604 3y agoreal-time, good, cheap. pick two.
- cduzz 3y agoAt best it's pick two. Often you get one or none.
- sskates 3y agoWe’re working on it! Free up to 10M events, more to come later this year. What would reasonably costed look like to you? More on my view on real-time analytics here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15380607 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15380607
- alex_lav 3y agoI need to remember that on HN, sometimes the founders of companies I'm talking about will respond :D. I should've used more words. I don't really know what reasonably costed would've looked like for the time I used Amplitude (2018-2019), but I know that the value my team extracted from it was not commensurate with its cost. Whether that was because of overzealous assumptions on our part, or something else, I don't really know, but I know we signed up, used for a few months and then canceled/downgraded to a cheaper service whose name is escaping me. I was mostly challenging the "Just use ____" notion of the commenter above, not really that Amplitude is worth the money for correctly-intentioned businesses. Regardless I appreciate the ask.
