Every figure read on 23 August 2026 from that vendor's own pricing page, at the cheapest published billing: frill.co/pricing, nolt.io/pricing, featurebase.app/pricing and canny.io/pricing, with Fider read from its repository. UserJot itself is $29 a month for five boards, $59 for unlimited. Canny is shown at 100 tracked users and its price scales with that count.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 honest 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.
Docket, $99 once
Ours, so read it with the appropriate suspicion. A GitHub repository you copy into your own account, on your own domain, covering every product you ship with no board cap on any tier including free. Feedback arrives as Markdown files in that repository and scheduled jobs draft the replies and write the changelog. You are the one running it, and it assumes you have a coding agent.
Open it and compare.
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.
