Userback alternative

The Userback alternative for client sign-off, not product feedback

HopBack is a Userback alternative for agencies and freelancers. Userback started as a visual feedback tool for agencies and now positions itself as user feedback software for product teams, with widgets, surveys, session replay and AI insights. HopBack stays on the agency job: a client opens a link with no account, pins comments that stick to the element, reviews in numbered rounds, and approves with a name and a time. Plans from $19 a month with unlimited reviewers.

14 days of Studio. No card needed.

What Userback does well

Userback's free-forever plan (2 seats, 2 projects, feedback kept 7 days) is a real free tier. Team at $29 a month annual includes project management integrations, MCP connectors and Zapier. Business adds session replay, console logs, AI insights and custom branding. If you are a product team wanting user feedback with rich technical context, it is well built.

Where HopBack is different

Built for the client review

Userback collects feedback from users through a widget. HopBack runs a review with a client: rounds, a finish-review lock, approval recorded.

No widget, nothing installed

Paste the URL, send the link.

Everything you make

Websites, logos, brochures, packaging, video, one tool the client learns once.

Reminders

HopBack nudges the client in your words on business days.

Pins that hold

Anchored to the element on live sites and shown at every screen size.

FAQ

Questions

Is Userback still for agencies?

Userback's site now describes it as user feedback software for product teams. It still works for website feedback, but rounds, approval records and client reminders are not its focus.

Does HopBack have session replay or console logs?

No. HopBack is for client feedback and sign-off, not bug reproduction.

How much does Userback cost?

Free, then $39, $99 and $199 a month, or $29, $79 and $159 annual. Checked 11 September 2026.
