Every figure read on 23 August 2026 from each vendor's own pricing page: frill.co, nolt.io, featurebase.app, canny.io and Fider's repository. UserJot is $29 a month for five boards, $59 for unlimited. Canny is shown at 100 tracked users.
What three years costs
Every hosted option here bills again next year. Docket does not.
Three years at each tool's entry price, one product. Fider is left out because its cost is your server, not a licence.
Going through the options
Canny, $79 a month billed yearly
Unlimited boards on every plan, including the free one, which is the single thing UserJot gates hardest. In exchange you are priced by tracked user, so the bill grows as the board works: $79 a month at a hundred, $1,349 at five thousand. Their Autopilot AI pulls feedback out of Intercom, Zendesk and Gong conversations without anybody filing anything, which nothing else here does.
Best for: A team leaving UserJot's board limits for unlimited boards on every plan, and wanting feedback pulled in from Intercom, Zendesk and Gong.
Not for: A team expecting more customers. Canny's price follows tracked users: $79 a month at a hundred, $1,349 at five thousand.
Featurebase, $29 per seat a month
Much broader: a helpdesk, a help centre, surveys and a changelog as well as a board. Worth it if you are buying all four. Two catches to read carefully. It is priced per seat, so a team of three is $1,044 a year, and removing their branding is a separate $69 a month add-on sold only on the $59 per seat plan or above.
Best for: Buying a board, helpdesk, help centre, surveys and changelog from one supplier.
Not for: More than two people on a budget. Three seats is $1,044 a year, and removing the branding is $69 a month extra on the $59 per seat plan or above.
Nolt, $29 a month billed yearly
The simplest tool here and the only one with 22 interface languages out of the box. Private boards and JWT single sign-on sit on the entry tier rather than being held back. The limit is severe though: the entry tier is one board, where UserJot gives you five for the same money, and there is no free plan at all.
Best for: Wanting a simpler tool with 22 interface languages, plus private boards and single sign-on on the entry tier.
Not for: A studio with more than one product. UserJot's $29 buys five boards where Nolt's buys one, and Nolt has no free plan.
Frill, $22 a month billed yearly
The cheapest hosted headline, and the one where the tier needs reading twice: fifty active ideas, and privacy sold as an add-on until the $136 a month plan. What it does that UserJot does not is surveys embedded in your own product, NPS and CSAT where the customer already is.
Best for: A team that wants surveys, NPS and CSAT inside its own product.
Not for: Anyone who needs private boards or full white labelling affordably. Both are add-ons or higher tiers, white labelling at $136 a month billed yearly.
Fider, free
The open source option, AGPL-3.0 and actively maintained. Voting, roadmap and private boards, on your own domain, for the cost of a small VPS and a mail sender, about $6 to $12 a month. Two catches: there is no changelog feature at all, and three releases in three months to July 2026 fixed a critical authentication flaw and then SSRF and XSS. Noticing and applying each one is your job.
Best for: Someone who wants no licence cost and is comfortable looking after Docker, PostgreSQL and mail themselves.
Not for: Anyone who needs a built-in changelog, or who cannot take on patching a self-hosted server.
Docket, $49 once
Ours, so read it knowing that. Your own copy, in your own GitHub account, on your own domain, covering every product you ship with no board cap on any tier including free. Feedback lands in it, Docket sends the first reply in your voice, and your agent writes the changelog. Your coding agent sets it up in about thirty minutes.
Open it and compare.
Best for: A UserJot user who wants to stop renting: a one-off payment, your own copy, every product, no board cap.
Not for: Anyone who wants a vendor to run it. There is no hosted version, it is set up in your own GitHub account, and it is newer and smaller than Canny or Productboard.
Which UserJot alternative should you choose?
Three questions, and they settle almost every case.
- How many products will this cover? UserJot gives you five at $29 and unlimited only at $59. Nolt gives you one. Canny, Fider and Docket have no cap at all.
- Who is going to run it? If the answer is nobody, pay somebody to. Fider's three security releases in three months are a fair warning about the other side of that trade.
- Do you want the price to move? Canny's rises with your success by design. Everyone else here is flat, and one of them stops.
