Fider Pricing in May 2026

Fider is genuinely free for self-hosting under MIT license. There's no Cloud version — the entire product is open-source self-hostable. Real-world Fider costs are zero for the software itself; you pay only your hosting infrastructure (often $5-20/month total).

The Free Self-Hosted offer is genuinely valuable — Fider's open-source self-hosted is the entire product. The strategic decision: Fider's value is the radical-open-source positioning combined with feature parity — completely free if you self-host, with a clean simple UI and the ability to run it on your own infrastructure for full control. For broader feedback management, Canny is the dominant commercial alternative with similar positioning at SaaS pricing — cleaner polish and richer features (changelog, roadmap views, integrations) but priced per seat. UserVoice is the legacy enterprise alternative. Productboard bundles feedback collection with broader product-management features. Sleekplan combines feedback, roadmap, changelog, and knowledge base. Savio competes directly with Canny at similar pricing. Nolt and FeatureOS (formerly featurebase.app) target SMB at lower pricing. ProductLift, ChangelogFy, and Productroad target similar territory at varying price points. For specifically Discord/Slack-integrated feedback, Linear's Triage and similar built-in workflows handle some use cases. For specifically GitHub-issues-based feedback, GitHub Discussions and GitHub Issues handle similar workflows for OSS projects. For specifically Notion-based public feedback, Super.so + Notion handles this with custom setup. For specifically internal-team-feedback rather than customer-facing, Linear's projects, Jira, and Notion handle internal feedback. Fider's distinct advantage is the self-hosted free model — for budget-conscious teams or those with compliance requirements ruling out SaaS, Fider is one of the few credible open-source feedback platforms.
