The Verdict
Amplitude is built for product teams and growth teams, with a focus on event-analytics and cohort-analysis. Sprig targets product managers and ux researchers and leads with in-app-surveys and session-replay.
Sprig uses custom enterprise pricing, while Amplitude starts at $49/mo — a tangible advantage for teams with a fixed budget.
Both offer free plans, so you can test each with your real workflow before committing to a subscription.
Feature-wise, Amplitude offers broader built-in capabilities (7 features vs 6), while Sprig takes a more focused approach — which can mean a simpler, faster onboarding experience.
Both tools are a solid fit for growth teams — in those cases, the decision often comes down to workflow style and how your team prefers to organize work.
This is a genuinely close comparison. If you can, sign up for both free trials (where available) and run a one-week test with your actual team tasks before deciding.
