The Verdict
Hasura is built for backend developers and startups, with a focus on graphql-api and rest-api. Huly targets startups and open source teams and leads with issue-tracking and team-planner.
On pricing, Huly is the clear winner for budget-conscious users — starting at $15/mo compared to $99/mo for Hasura. That $84/mo difference adds up quickly for growing teams.
Both offer free plans, so you can test each with your real workflow before committing to a subscription.
Hasura edges out on user ratings (4.4 vs 4.1). While both are well-regarded, that gap reflects real differences in user satisfaction worth considering.
Both tools are a solid fit for startups — in those cases, the decision often comes down to workflow style and how your team prefers to organize work.
Bottom line: Hasura has a slight overall edge — but if open-source with self-hosting option matters most to you, Huly may still be the right call.
