Alternative
The best PostHog alternative for e-commerce
Why teams choose Netaj when they outgrow PostHog — built for Salla, Shopify and Zid, Arabic-first, and one platform instead of three.
PostHog is a powerful all-in-one stack for engineering teams shipping SaaS products. Netaj is built for e-commerce — Salla, Shopify, Zid, WooCommerce, Magento — with a no-code visual editor, native Arabic/RTL dashboard, MENA-friendly pricing, and flat monthly bills instead of per-event metering.
Feature-by-feature comparison
| Netaj | PostHog | |
|---|---|---|
| Target audience | E-commerce merchants (Salla, Shopify, Zid, WooCommerce, Magento) | SaaS engineering and product teams |
| Visual editor for A/B tests | Full no-code WYSIWYG editor — edit text, images, colors, layout without touching code | Code required for most experiments; visual editor is limited and beta |
| Native Salla integration | One-click install from the Salla App Store | No native Salla integration — manual snippet only |
| Arabic dashboard and RTL | First-class Arabic UI, RTL layout, and Arabic-aware analytics throughout | English-only dashboard, no RTL support |
| Open source / self-hostable | SaaS only (cloud-hosted) | MIT-licensed, fully self-hostable |
| Session replay | Included on all plans with frustration scoring (rage clicks, dead clicks, JS errors) | Included, with strong dev-tools console and network capture |
| Heatmaps | Click, scroll, and movement heatmaps tuned for product and category pages | Click heatmaps via the toolbar; scroll/move maps are limited |
| Pricing predictability | Flat $29 / $99 / $299 per month — no surprise overages | Usage-based after 1M events — bills scale with traffic spikes |
Why teams switch from PostHog
- You want to launch A/B tests without writing a single line of code — pick an element, change it, ship the experiment.
- Your store runs on Salla, Shopify, Zid, WooCommerce, or Magento and you need a tool that understands carts, checkouts, and product pages out of the box.
- Your team and customers are in the MENA region and a fully Arabic, RTL-native dashboard matters.
- You need predictable flat monthly pricing instead of per-event metering that punishes a Black Friday traffic spike.
Where PostHog still wins
- Open source and self-hostable — if you need to keep raw event data inside your own infrastructure, PostHog is hard to beat.
- Generous free tier (1M events/month) makes it a strong choice for early-stage SaaS products with light traffic.
- Feature flags and developer experience — typed SDKs, server-side flag evaluation, and deep tooling for engineering teams.

Frequently asked questions
Is Netaj an open-source alternative to PostHog?+
No — Netaj is a cloud SaaS. If self-hosting and open source are hard requirements, PostHog is the better fit. Netaj wins when you want a managed, no-code, e-commerce-focused tool with native Arabic support.
Can I run A/B tests on my Salla store without a developer?+
Yes. Netaj's visual editor lets you change copy, images, colors, button styles, and layout on any page without touching code, then split traffic and track conversions automatically. PostHog typically requires you to wire experiment variants in code.
How does pricing compare on a high-traffic store?+
Netaj is flat: $29, $99, or $299 per month based on pageview and recording quotas. PostHog stays free up to 1M events but then charges per event and per recording, so a busy Salla or Shopify store can see bills swing sharply month to month.
Do I lose feature flags and developer tooling if I switch?+
Netaj focuses on experimentation and CRO for storefronts, not on feature-flag infrastructure for product engineering. If your team relies heavily on server-side flags, typed SDKs, and rollouts to user cohorts, you can keep PostHog for that layer and use Netaj for visual A/B tests, heatmaps, recordings, and surveys.
Does Netaj have an Arabic dashboard? PostHog doesn't.+
Yes. Netaj's dashboard, reports, editor, and even survey widgets are fully bilingual (Arabic + English) with native RTL layout, Arabic numerals where appropriate, and date/currency formatting tuned for MENA markets.
