A Sleekplan alternative for teams that only need the board

Most comparison pages in this category open by telling you the other product cannot do something. This one cannot, because Sleekplan and VoteFirst both weight votes by what the customer pays, and both let people vote without making an account.

So the comparison is narrower and more useful than the usual one. It is about how much product you need, and what it costs you the day a second person joins. If you would rather just look, ours is running here.

What are the alternatives to Sleekplan?

Sleekplan is free for one admin and thirteen dollars a month billed yearly once a second person joins, so the question is what the second person costs everywhere else. Here is the field, with the unit each tool charges on.

Read on each vendor's own pricing page, with the billing switch on the yearly side wherever one is published. From is the cheapest paid rate per month. What each one includes, as well as what it costs, is on one page.

Read on each vendor's own pages on the date in the row above. Not published means nobody could read it on the pages opened that day, never that the feature is absent.

What does Sleekplan cost?

Indie is free forever. Starter is 13 dollars a month billed yearly, Business is 38 dollars a month billed yearly, and Enterprise is priced on request. What each of those four tiers carries is written out separately.

The unit is the workspace. Their own pricing page notes that separate workspaces are billed separately and can sit on different plans, so a team running two products is buying two of whatever it picked.

If you would rather try the alternative than read about it, a trial runs 14 days and asks for a card at signup, and it is $9 or $39 a month after that.

What is actually in the free plan?

A great deal. Unlimited feedback and subscribers, the feedback board, the changelog and the roadmap, and both email and in app announcements.

That is a real free tier rather than a trial wearing a costume, and if you are one person shipping one product it may well be everything you need for a long time. We would rather say that than have you find it out ten minutes after reading a page that implied otherwise.

What it does not include is a second person. The Indie plan carries zero team seats, and Starter is where three of them appear. So the free plan does not end when you get popular, it ends when you hire.

Fourteen day trial of Pro, card asked for at signup. Nothing here counts the people who vote, so the bill does not move when the board starts working. The long version, with what happens if you stop paying.

Does Sleekplan weight votes by revenue?

Yes. They describe it as vote weight by plan, by monthly revenue or by segment, and they build a customer impact figure out of the weights on your users.

Sleekplan's own feature page, the claim our research got wrong.

We are stating that plainly because we got it wrong once. Our own research file recorded Sleekplan as having no revenue weighting, because the first pass read their pricing page, where it is not mentioned, and never opened their feedback page, where it is. That error is corrected here.

Their pricing page does not say which tier the feature needs, so we are not going to guess at it. If it matters to your decision, ask them.

The difference that survives is not whether the feature exists but how it is built. Ours is an integer multiplier you set on a tier, frozen onto each vote at the moment it is cast, summed into a total that sits beside the plain headcount.

Turning it off rewrites every vote back to a weight of one and recounts. It is deliberately simple, and simple is the whole argument for it, because a prioritization number you cannot explain to a colleague is a number that quietly stops being used.

14 days, a card at signup, then $9 or $39 a month.

Can somebody vote without an account?

On both products, yes. Sleekplan offers anonymous voting and posting and describes it as letting users contribute without registering.

This is the argument you will see used against Canny, and it does not work here, so we are not going to make it.

Is Sleekplan still being developed?

Very actively. In the two and a half weeks before this page was written they shipped account level grouping of feedback, controls for random and hidden usernames, directory sync, internal statuses and a documents feature.

Anyone telling you Sleekplan is stale has not looked at their changelog. We looked, and the dates are recent enough that this paragraph will be out of date in a good way rather than a bad one.

What can you take with you if you leave?

A CSV of your feedback, your changelog, your users, your votes and your survey results. Their import side also pulls posts, comments, votes and users straight out of Canny, Upvoty or UserVoice.

One caveat they publish themselves, which is genuinely useful to know before you start rather than after. Posts and changelog entries are not de duplicated, so running the same import twice creates duplicate posts. Users are matched by email, so re importing the same address reuses the existing account rather than making a second one.

Does Sleekplan have a public roadmap and single sign on?

Sleekplan carries a roadmap that requests move onto before release. Sleekplan carries single sign on from Starter, with SAML on Enterprise. Ours publishes a public roadmap with a Denied column on every plan, and signs a voter in with a token from your own application on the thirty nine dollar plan rather than with SAML.

Is there a free Sleekplan alternative?

Yes, several, and none of them is Sleekplan. Fider is the free one to know about, because it is open source and its hosted tier runs to two hundred and fifty feedback items.

UserJot gives two boards and three admin roles, Supahub gives one board and one admin, Featurebase gives one seat, and Sleekplan's Indie tier is a single admin workspace that does not expire.

All five were read on their own pages on 14 September 2026. This product is not one of them. There is no free plan here, only a fourteen day trial that asks for a card at signup.

Is Sleekplan worth it, and when is it the better answer?

If you want surveys, satisfaction scores, net promoter scores, a documents feature and a knowledge base under one workspace price, buy Sleekplan. We do not have those and we are not building them.

If you are one person and expect to stay one person, their free tier costs nothing and does more than our paid one.

That is two thirds of the readers of this page, and saying so is not modesty. A comparison page that recommends itself in every scenario is a page nobody believes twice.

What moving actually involves

More work than a button, and the honest version is short. There is no importer for requests or votes on our side.

Voters and the revenue behind them come in from a CSV or from a billing connection, which is the part the weighting needs. The requests themselves are rebuilt by hand or by a script against the API, and the vote counts start again.

That is a real cost and it is worth naming before anybody moves. The five steps, with the endpoint each one uses, are written out in full, and they are the same five whatever you are leaving.

Where ours is

When the second person joins. Sleekplan's free plan stops at one seat and its paid tier starts at 13 dollars a month billed yearly for the workspace. VoteFirst is nine dollars a month on LITE, billed monthly, with no annual commitment and weighted voting included.

That is a small difference in money and a real one in shape. You are not committing to a year to get the lower number.

When you want a feedback board and a roadmap and a changelog and nothing else. Fewer things to configure, fewer screens your customers have to understand, and a product that is not quietly asking you to also run surveys.

PRO is thirty nine dollars a month and adds more projects, the API and a custom domain. There is a fourteen day trial on whichever plan you pick, and a card is required to start it.

Sleekplan against the others, one at a time
