The 7 best Upvoty alternatives in 2026

Upvoty does the core job well: users post ideas, vote, and follow a public roadmap. It reports over 2,000 product teams as customers, and at $15 a month for a single web product it is priced fairly. So why do teams go looking for an alternative? Three reasons come up again and again.

No free plan. Upvoty offers a 14-day trial and then you pay. Every tool on this list except Frill has a free tier you can stay on, and one of them is free forever because you run it yourself.

One project per plan. Both the $15 Power and the $25 Super plan include exactly one project. Unlimited projects start at $49 a month on Hyper. If you run two apps, or an app and a website, you are either paying twice or paying $49. The changelog and the integrations also only unlock at $25. We broke down the tiers in Upvoty pricing explained.

Web only. Upvoty is a hosted web portal. If your product is an iOS or macOS app, your users leave the app or vote inside an embedded web page. There is no native SDK.

Seven alternatives are worth a look, including two with real free plans and one you can host yourself.

1. WishKit, best free Upvoty alternative for apps and SaaS

Full disclosure: WishKit is our product. It is built around the same idea as Upvoty, a board where users post feature requests and votes rank them, with two differences that matter here: it has a real free plan, and it renders natively inside apps.

WishKit is the board Upvoty would be with a free plan and a native SDK: voting, comments, statuses and duplicate merging, rendered natively on iOS, macOS, visionOS, watchOS and tvOS, embedded on the web with two lines of HTML, and able to capture feature requests from posts on X.

• Pricing: free plan with one project. Premium is a flat $15/mo and includes two projects, so an app plus a website costs the same as Upvoty's single-project Power plan. Enterprise is $39/mo with unlimited projects, $10 less than Upvoty Hyper.
• Pick it if: you want a focused feedback board that is free to start, and especially if your product is an app.
• Skip it if: you want a bundled changelog module or Jira and Intercom integrations out of the box.

2. Canny, best for deep integrations

Canny is the most established tool in the category. If you liked Upvoty's Jira and Intercom integrations but want them deeper, plus Salesforce, Zendesk, and AI-powered deduplication, Canny is the natural step up.

• Pricing: free plan up to 25 tracked users, Pro from $79/mo billed yearly for 100 tracked users, climbing with tracked users from there. Details in Canny pricing explained.
• Pick it if: Upvoty's Slack, Jira and Intercom integrations were the part you used most and you want them deeper.
• Skip it if: tracked-user billing worries you. Upvoty's unlimited tracked users on every plan is one of its genuine advantages, and Canny takes that away.

3. Featurebase, best for support and feedback in one

Featurebase bundles feedback boards, roadmaps, changelogs, surveys, a help center, and an AI support inbox. If you want Upvoty's changelog plus a support tool in the same product, this is the modern version of that idea.

• Pricing: free plan, then $29 to $99 per seat per month plus $0.49 per AI-resolved conversation. See Featurebase pricing explained.
• Pick it if: it can replace your support tool too.
• Skip it if: per-seat pricing does not fit your team size.

4. Sleekplan, best all-in-one on a budget

Sleekplan packs a feedback board, roadmap, changelog, and NPS surveys into one website widget. It undercuts Upvoty on price and includes the changelog that Upvoty reserves for its $25 tier.

• Pricing: free plan, paid from around $13/mo.
• Pick it if: you want survey and changelog features included cheaply.
• Skip it if: you prefer one focused tool over five modules. Here is our WishKit vs Sleekplan comparison.

5. UserJot, best free plan among web boards

UserJot is a modern web feedback board with a genuinely useful free plan: two boards, three admins, unlimited posts and voters, a public roadmap, and a public changelog. That is more than Upvoty gives you for $15.

• Pricing: free plan, Starter at $29/mo, Professional at $59/mo.
• Pick it if: you want a fair free tier for a web product and several private boards.
• Skip it if: your users are in a native app rather than on a website. Here is our WishKit vs UserJot comparison.

6. Frill, best for clean and simple boards

Frill is a well-designed feedback board with ideas, roadmap, and announcements. It is the closest in spirit to Upvoty: focused, polished, and web-based, with unlimited admins on paid tiers.

• Pricing: paid plans from around $25/mo. No free plan, like Upvoty.
• Pick it if: several teammates manage feedback and Upvoty's per-project pricing was never the issue.
• Skip it if: a free plan is the reason you are leaving Upvoty. Here is our WishKit vs Frill comparison.

7. Fider, best open-source Upvoty alternative

If you want a voting board you can run yourself, Fider is the established open-source option. Users post ideas, vote, and follow status updates, and you host it with Docker and a PostgreSQL database.

• Pricing: free to self-host. The hosted version is free up to 250 feedback requests, then Pro at $25 a month.
• Pick it if: you want unlimited projects without Upvoty's $49 Hyper tier and can run a server.
• Skip it if: you want a roadmap and changelog like Upvoty's, or a tool that runs itself.
