| Important considerations |
Cloud has no permanent general free plan after its 30-day trial. Self-hosting requires a VPS, Docker-based services, database operations, upgrades, email configuration, security, and backups. | Paid prices are not public and depend on monthly active users and selected modules. Session Replay is not included in every plan, and Pendo Free stops creation of new guides, NPS surveys, or segments above 500 MAUs. |
| Integrations |
JavaScript, React, Next.js, Vue, Swift, Kotlin, REST API | Salesforce, Slack, Jira, Segment, Snowflake, Zendesk, HubSpot, Microsoft Teams |
