10 Best Customer Feedback Software of 2026

By the TopToolAdvisor research desk · Updated November 7, 2026 · Next review December 22, 2026 · 10 products scored

Our pickCannySaaS product teams that want a public voting board fed automatically by support tickets and sales calls.8.9

Our pick in brief

Canny is the strongest dedicated feedback tool, because its AI pulls requests out of support and sales conversations on every plan, including Free. Featurebase is the best value for support-led teams, pairing feedback boards with a help desk and AI agent at $29 per seat. Sleekplan and Frill are simple, low-cost boards with roadmaps and changelogs. Survicate and Qualaroo collect structured survey feedback rather than votes. Productboard and Pendo connect feedback to roadmaps and usage data for larger product organizations, Usersnap covers widget and call feedback with unlimited seats, and UserVoice serves enterprise programs from $12,000 a year.

Quick answer

Canny is the best customer feedback software for SaaS product teams that want a voting portal fed by support and sales conversations in 2026, with a free plan and Pro from $79 per month billed yearly. Featurebase suits support teams that want feedback boards inside a help desk, from $29 per seat per month billed yearly. Sleekplan is the cheapest paid option at $13 per month billed yearly, and Canny, Featurebase, Sleekplan, Qualaroo and Pendo all have free plans.

This list is for product and support teams that collect feature requests, survey answers and complaints and need to decide what to build next. We compared documented features and published prices for 10 customer feedback tools and scored each on features, ease of use and value. Prices are the cheapest paid plan in US dollars as shown on the vendor's pricing page on the date we checked; three vendors did not show a US dollar price, so those are marked pending. The tools fall into three groups: idea boards with voting (Canny, Featurebase, Sleekplan, Frill, UserVoice), survey tools (Survicate, Qualaroo) and product platforms where feedback feeds roadmaps or analytics (Productboard, Pendo, Usersnap).

    Free plan for 25 tracked users; Pro from $79 per month billed yearly

    Quoted from the Canny pricing page on November 7, 2026: starts at $ 79 / month billed yearly Pro

    Canny is a feedback portal built around one idea: capture every request, merge duplicates, and tie the result to revenue. Its Autopilot AI reads support and sales conversations from Intercom, Zendesk, Freshdesk, Gong and Zoom, pulls out feature requests, removes duplicates and routes them to the right team, and it is included on every plan. Customers post and vote on boards, product managers update statuses, and a changelog announces what shipped. Pricing is set by tracked users, meaning people who post, vote or comment, rather than by seats. The Free plan covers 25 tracked users and 5 managers, and Pro starts at $79 per month billed yearly with 100+ tracked users, 10 managers and project management integrations such as Jira, Linear and Azure DevOps. If you pass your limit, Canny upgrades you automatically unless you set a spend limit. HubSpot and Salesforce links and SSO integrations sit on the custom Business plan, so revenue-weighted prioritization costs more.

    Strengths

    • +Free plan includes Autopilot AI and unlimited feedback
    • +Optional monthly spend limit stops surprise upgrades
    • +Unlimited contributors on every plan

    Drawbacks

    • −Price rises with tracked users, not seats

    Free plan for 1 seat; Growth from $29 per seat per month billed yearly

    Quoted from the Featurebase pricing page on November 7, 2026: Growth For fast-growing startups $ 29 per seat / month Billed yearly

    Featurebase started as a feedback board and now sells a full support suite, so feature requests live next to the tickets that produce them. Every plan includes an inbox, live chat, a help center and unlimited end users, and feedback limits scale by plan: 1 board and 1 roadmap on Free, 5 of each on Growth, 10 on Professional and unlimited on Enterprise. Posts and comments are unlimited throughout. AI suggests the right board, flags duplicate posts and deduplicates feedback, and an Ask AI feature answers questions about it. Growth costs $29 per seat per month billed yearly and adds the Fibi AI Agent, email, surveys, reports and API, MCP and webhook access. Fibi is billed at $0.49 only when it fully resolves a conversation. Professional at $59 adds Slack, WhatsApp and Discord channels, workflows and HubSpot and Salesforce. Teams that only want a voting board may find the help desk focus more than they need, and seat pricing adds up for large support teams.

    Strengths

    • +Free plan includes live chat, ticketing, a help center, 1 feedback board and 1 roadmap
    • +Unlimited end users and unlimited posts on every plan
    • +10 day free trial with no credit card

    Free Indie plan; Starter from $13 per month billed yearly

    Quoted from the Sleekplan pricing page on November 7, 2026: Starter For small teams ready to close the loop. $ 13 / mo · billed yearly

    Sleekplan packs the usual feedback stack into a small, cheap product: a voting board, a roadmap, a changelog and in-app satisfaction surveys. The free Indie plan gives unlimited feedback and subscribers with a feedback board and changelog, but only one admin and no roadmap. Starter costs $13 per month billed yearly and adds 3 team seats, CSAT and NPS, 1,000 AI credits, SSO, API access, webhooks and standard integrations including Intercom, GitHub, Slack, Zapier and Jira. Business at $38 per month billed yearly adds 10 seats, 5,000 AI credits a month, surveys, topic analytics, insights dashboards, a custom domain and branding removal. Newer AI features sort feedback into themes as it arrives, and an MCP server lets AI assistants query the data. Plans cap announcement views, popup views and email sends each month, so busy consumer apps should check those limits. Tracked users and feedback items are unlimited on every plan.

    Strengths

    • +Free plan with unlimited feedback and subscribers
    • +Lowest paid entry price on this list
    • +30 day trial with no card

    Plans from $25 per month (Startup); Business $49, Growth $149

    Quoted from the Frill pricing page on November 7, 2026: Startup $25 per month

    Frill keeps feedback management simple: an idea board, a roadmap and an announcements feed, all delivered through one embeddable widget. Every paid plan includes unlimited admins, unlimited tracked users and unlimited widgets, which suits companies where many people need to read and triage ideas. Ideas get votes, comments and reactions, admins can vote on behalf of customers, similar ideas are detected and merged, and a priority matrix scores requests on custom factors. Startup costs $25 per month with 50 active ideas and 1 survey, Business at $49 lifts ideas to unlimited with 3 surveys, Growth at $149 bundles privacy features, unlimited surveys and white labeling, and Enterprise at $349 adds SOC 2 compliance, audit logs and dedicated hosting. Surveys cover NPS, CSAT, quick polls, idea polls and open feedback. There is no free plan, only a 14 day trial, and private boards need the Privacy add-on below Growth. A Canny import helps teams switching tools.

    Strengths

    • +Unlimited admins and tracked users on every paid plan
    • +14 day free trial with no credit card
    • +Short learning curve with one embeddable widget

    Drawbacks

    A multichannel survey platform for website, in-product, mobile and email feedback with an AI Research Hub.

    Growth from $114 per month billed annually

    Quoted from the Survicate pricing page on November 7, 2026: Growth starts at $114 /mo Billed annually

    Survicate is a survey tool rather than a voting board, and it fits teams whose feedback program runs on NPS, CSAT and open questions. Surveys go out by email and link, as website pop-ups, inside a product, through a mobile SDK, in Intercom, as iframe embeds, in kiosk mode or by QR code, and they can be targeted by user attributes and events. The Research Hub uses an AI agent to analyze responses and data points, and it can be reached through MCP. Growth starts at $114 per month billed annually with a set pool of survey responses and data points, Pro starts at $349 per month and adds AI follow-up questions, multilingual surveys, answer piping and a feedback button, and Enterprise starts at $569. Integrations number 25+ on Growth and 40+ on Pro. There is no free plan, only a 10 day trial capped at 25 responses, and costs climb as response volume grows. Teams that need public idea voting will need a second tool.

    Strengths

    • +One tool covers web, app, mobile and email surveys
    • +10 day all-features trial with no card
    • +Response targeting by attributes and events

    Drawbacks

    • −No permanent free plan

    We could not confirm a US price yet. Check the Usersnap pricing page.

    Usersnap began as a visual bug reporting widget and now covers the wider feedback cycle. Each project collects feedback through widgets or surveys, and channel sources pull insights out of tools such as Gong, Zoom and ServiceNow. An opportunity board scores roadmap ideas with flexible value scoring, and AI writes project summaries, adds categorization labels and drafts replies. Announcements publish a changelog. Plans scale by projects and channel sources: Starter includes 2 seats and 2 projects, Growth moves to unlimited seats with 10 projects, 20 channel sources, segments and email automations, Professional adds sentiment processing, public boards and spaces, and Premium adds custom branding and permission management. The pricing page we fetched showed euro prices only, so we have not listed a US dollar figure. Integrations cover Slack, Jira, Azure DevOps, Linear, Zendesk, Salesforce and 50+ other tools. Teams that want a public voting board should note it starts on Professional, two tiers above entry.

    Strengths

    We could not confirm a US price yet. Check the Productboard pricing page.

    Productboard is a full product management system with feedback at its center. A customer insights repository gathers feedback from forms, portals and integrations, and the Spark AI agent summarizes it, surfaces findings and opportunities and writes feedback reports. Insights link to features, which feed custom prioritization formulas, dependency tracking and timeline or column roadmaps with release planning. Product Portals let customers vote, with custom voting questions, localization, moderation and portal SSO, and an embedded portal option. The Business plan includes 25 contributors, unlimited feedback, 2 Product Portals and product usage integrations with Amplitude and Mixpanel, while Enterprise adds unlimited contributors, SAML SSO, SCIM, custom roles and Salesforce. The pricing page lists no prices and asks for a demo on both plans, so we could not verify a figure. Teams that only need a voting board will find it heavier than they need, and the setup takes more effort than lighter tools.

    Strengths

    • +Links feedback directly to features and roadmap items
    • +Custom prioritization formulas and dependency tracking
    • +Unlimited feedback and teamspaces on Business

    Drawbacks

    • −No public prices; Business requires a demo request

    Quoted from the Qualaroo pricing page on November 7, 2026: $39.99 $19.99 per month $239.88 billed annually

    Qualaroo, part of ProProfs, focuses on one job: asking short, contextual questions while people are on your website or in your app. Its Nudge surveys appear in-page and can target users by behavior, ask in the visitor's language and feed AI-powered analytics and sentiment reports. An iOS and Android SDK brings the same surveys into mobile apps. The free plan allows 50 responses forever with 500 email sends and 10,000 pageviews. Essentials costs $19.99 per month billed annually, or $239.88 a year, with unlimited responses and 1,000 email sends a month, and Business costs $49.99 per month billed annually with 5,000 email sends and 100,000 pageviews. Enterprise starts at $149.99 per month on annual plans only. Removing the Powered By link costs $300 a year. Qualaroo has no voting board, roadmap or changelog, so product teams that manage feature requests will pair it with another tool. For conversion and UX questions on live pages it is quick to set up and cheap.

    Strengths

    • +Permanent free plan with 50 responses
    • +Unlimited responses from the $19.99 Essentials plan
    • +Low annual price for small teams

    Free plan up to 500 monthly active users; paid plans on request (USD check pending)

    We could not confirm a US price yet. Check the Pendo pricing page.

    Pendo is a product experience platform, and its feedback module, Pendo Listen, sits beside analytics, in-app guides and session replay. Listen gathers call transcripts, support tickets, survey responses, Gong calls, Zendesk tickets and NPS comments into one place, and Pendo AI sorts raw feedback into feature requests, bug reports or complaints. Each idea can be mapped to account ARR, churn risk and in-product behavior, so teams can rank requests by business impact. An Ideas Portal shares direction with customers, ideas can become fully briefed Jira issues, and email and in-app alerts tell contributors when their idea moves. The free plan covers 500 monthly active users with analytics, guides and Pendo-branded NPS. Paid plans are priced on monthly active users and features, and the page lists no figures, so the price is unverified. Product discovery is an add-on on Base and Core and included in Ultimate. It is a heavy choice if you only need a voting board.

    Strengths

    • +Free plan with analytics, guides and Pendo-branded NPS for 500 MAUs
    • +Feedback weighted by usage and revenue data
    • +Price not affected by number of apps or sessions

    Quoted from the UserVoice pricing page on November 7, 2026: starting at $1,000 / month Starting at $12,000, billed yearly

    UserVoice is one of the oldest feedback tools and now targets companies with formal feedback programs. Every plan includes unlimited feedback, unlimited portal users and unlimited view-only admins, who can see everything and query it through the UserVoice agent and MCP without changing data. Admins merge and label feedback, update statuses and reply to customers. The entry Launch plan starts at $1,000 per month, or $12,000 billed yearly, with 20 admins and $40 for each extra admin per month. It already includes Jira, Azure DevOps, Salesforce, HubSpot, Slack and Teams, sentiment analysis, segments, account insights, SCIM, white labeling and custom CSS, HTML and JavaScript. Business starts at $1,833 per month with 50 admins, a guided kickoff call, priority support and a customer success team. Gainsight is an add-on. The price makes no sense for small teams, and Launch onboarding is self-guided with help center docs, but large organizations get enterprise controls from the first tier.

    Strengths

    • +Prices published in USD
    • +Unlimited view-only admins share feedback widely
    • +Enterprise integrations included on the entry plan

What to check before you buy

Choose between voting boards and surveys

Voting boards such as Canny, Featurebase, Sleekplan and Frill collect feature requests and let customers upvote them. Survey tools such as Survicate and Qualaroo ask targeted questions like NPS or exit surveys. Many teams need both, and Sleekplan, Frill and Featurebase include basic surveys alongside their boards.

Understand the pricing unit

Canny charges by tracked users who post or vote, Featurebase by support seat, UserVoice by admin, Pendo by monthly active users, and Survicate and Qualaroo by responses or sends. Frill includes unlimited admins and Usersnap unlimited seats from Growth, so the cheapest tool depends on whether your cost driver is customers or teammates.

Capture feedback where it already happens

Most requests arrive in support tickets and sales calls, not on a public board. Canny Autopilot reads Intercom, Zendesk, Freshdesk, Gong and Zoom, Pendo Listen pulls in Gong calls and Zendesk tickets, and Usersnap ingests channels such as Gong, Zoom and ServiceNow. Without this, someone has to copy requests by hand.

Weight requests by revenue

A request from a large account can matter more than ten votes from free users. Pendo maps ideas to account ARR and churn risk, Canny ties feedback to opportunity revenue on Business, and UserVoice and Productboard connect to Salesforce. Check which plan unlocks the CRM link, as it is often not the entry tier.

Close the loop with users

Customers keep giving feedback when they hear what happened to it. Look for status updates, a changelog and automatic emails when an idea ships. Canny, Sleekplan, Frill and Usersnap include changelogs or announcements, and Pendo sends email and in-app alerts as ideas progress.

Common questions

What is the best customer feedback software in 2026?
Canny ranks first on our list for SaaS product teams, thanks to AI feedback capture from support and sales tools on every plan and a free plan for 25 tracked users. Featurebase is the best value for support-led teams at $29 per seat per month billed yearly.
Is there free customer feedback software?
Yes. Canny is free for 25 tracked users, Featurebase is free for 1 seat with 1 feedback board, Sleekplan's Indie plan is free with a single admin, Qualaroo is free up to 50 responses, and Pendo is free for 500 monthly active users.
What is the cheapest paid feedback tool?
Sleekplan Starter costs $13 per month billed yearly with 3 team seats, CSAT and NPS. Qualaroo Essentials costs $19.99 per month billed annually, and Frill Startup costs $25 per month.
What is the difference between Canny and Productboard?
Canny is a dedicated feedback portal with voting, AI capture and a changelog, with prices from $79 per month billed yearly. Productboard is a broader product management platform that links feedback to features, prioritization formulas and roadmaps, and it prices on request.
Do I need a survey tool or a feature request board?
A feature request board collects and ranks ideas that customers suggest, while a survey tool asks specific questions such as NPS or why a visitor left a page. Product teams usually start with a board, and CX and marketing teams usually start with surveys such as Survicate or Qualaroo.
