Frequently asked questions

Canny is a feature-request and roadmap tool: users vote, you prioritise. Userback covers the whole feedback surface, including bug reports with technical context, in-app surveys and feature requests, so you are not running one tool for ideas and another for everything else your users report.

Canny publishes its pricing, including a free tier and paid plans from $79 per month as of August 2026. Userback publishes its pricing too and has a free plan. Both are transparent, so the useful comparison is what each free tier actually lets you do rather than the headline number.

Yes. Userback includes a feature portal where users submit and upvote requests, with workflow status you can make public. If a voting board is the only thing you need, Canny is focused on exactly that. If you want those requests arriving alongside bug reports and survey responses in one place, that is the case for Userback.

Yes. The free plan covers unlimited feedback availability, with limits on projects and seats rather than on how much feedback you can collect. There is no trial period and no card required to start.
