Kissmetrics review and pricing

Modern customer-journey plus product analytics at SMB price points.

By Kissmetrics · Founded 2008 · Boston, MA · private

Kissmetrics is the modern customer-journey plus product analytics platform, founded 2008 and re-launched under new ownership 2018-2019 after a period of stagnation. The current product covers event tracking, funnels, retention, cohorts, A/B testing, and a customer-journey view positioned for mid-market SaaS and B2B teams wanting journey analytics without enterprise pricing. Strengths: predictable SMB-friendly pricing (rare in this category), modern customer-journey plus product analytics combined, transparent published pricing tiers (also rare here), strong fit for mid-market SaaS wanting Amplitude-style analytics with journey overlay at a fraction of cost, and faster time-to-value than enterprise CXM. Trade-offs: feature breadth narrower than Adobe CJA, Amplitude, or Pointillist at enterprise scope; cross-channel touchpoint coverage thinner (web and product strong, voice and offline weak); AI journey discovery is roadmap rather than shipped at the depth of Adobe Sensei; brand recognition lower than larger vendors; and the company has had ownership transitions that buyers should diligence.

Trust signal log
  • 2018-09-22
    Kissmetrics relaunched under new ownership
    Kissmetrics emerged under new ownership after a period of stagnation in the mid-2010s; the platform was rebuilt with a customer-journey emphasis.
  • 2023-04-15
    Published pricing tiers retained against category trend
    Kissmetrics retained public pricing across tiers while the rest of the category trended opaque; rare transparency in customer journey analytics.
  • 2025-09-22
    AI journey discovery roadmap announced
    Kissmetrics announced an AI journey discovery roadmap; buyers report this is roadmap rather than shipped at the depth of Adobe Sensei or Amplitude AI Agents.
Vendor Trust is scored independently of product quality. A great product from an unfair vendor still earns a low trust score.

Pricing in B2B software is opaque because vendors want it that way. Verified buyer prices fix that, anonymously. Share what you actually paid for Kissmetrics; we’ll add it to the verified pricing dataset on this page (with company size band only, no identifying details).
