The short answer

LogRocket
LogRocket charges roughly $176/month for about 25,000 sessions and scales with how much you capture.
Temps
Temps records comparable rrweb-style DOM sessions on your own server with no per-session meter — volume is bounded by disk — and includes error tracking and analytics.
What LogRocket has that Temps doesn't
AI session summaries, automatic issue detection and heatmaps. Both replay what happened in the browser; the difference is the meter and the tooling depth around it.

Why teams switch from LogRocket

LogRocket is a more capable session replay product and it prices honestly in public: from about $176/month for roughly 25,000 sessions, with no per-seat fee. Temps' replay is narrower, self-hosted and unmetered — the trade is depth against a meter.

No per-session meter
LogRocket scales with sessions captured, starting around $176/month for roughly 25,000. Self-hosted Temps replay is bounded by disk, so a traffic spike costs storage rather than a higher tier.
Recordings stay in your boundary
Replay captures what users typed and saw. Self-hosting keeps that inside your own infrastructure instead of a vendor's, which is usually a compliance question rather than a cost one.
Bundled with the platform
Replay, analytics, error tracking, uptime monitoring and deployments in one Rust binary, rather than replay as its own subscription beside the rest.
Temps self-hosts on any plan; LogRocket only at Enterprise
LogRocket offers self-hosted deployment at the Enterprise tier. With Temps, self-hosting is the default and free under MIT / Apache 2.0.

What it actually costs

LogRocket does not charge per seat, which is the right model and better than several competitors. The cost that grows is sessions: roughly $176/month at 25,000 and upward from there. Whether that is expensive depends entirely on whether your team opens replays often enough to justify it — for teams that do, it is a working tool rather than a line item.

Which one should you choose?

Choose Temps if you…

  • Session volume is what makes LogRocket expensive for you
  • Recordings must stay on your own infrastructure without an Enterprise contract
  • You want replay bundled with deployments, analytics and error tracking
  • You want a permanent free option rather than a 14-day trial
  • Replay is useful to you but not worth a dedicated subscription

What LogRocket does better than Temps

  • You want AI session summaries and automatic issue detection
  • Heatmaps and deeper frontend debugging are part of your workflow
  • Your team opens replays daily — the tooling depth pays for itself
  • You want a hosted product with support and no server to operate
  • Session-based pricing already suits how your team works

Migrating from LogRocket

Easy difficulty

Swap the LogRocket SDK for @temps-sdk/react-analytics — both are browser SDKs capturing the DOM, so the integration is comparable in effort. Recordings do not transfer. The thing to check before switching is whether anyone depends on AI summaries, issue detection or heatmaps, none of which have a Temps equivalent.
