Getting started
To help, we’ve compared Segment and Panoply on key factors like price, ease of use, and compatibility so you can make an informed decision that fits your needs.
Segment is a Data Tracking Platform for Customer Data
Segment is an event tracking platform designed for retail, small businesses, and app developers. It captures events (such as form submissions) and pushes that data simultaneously to a user’s CRM, EMS, data warehouse, and other analytics tools. Segment’s primary advantage is its ability to unify the identity of a visitor and track their progress through the sales funnel. The platform does not provide a data warehouse, built-in SQL workbench, or robust customer service, which may prove challenging for some users.
Panoply is a Data Warehouse + ETL Platform for Analysts
Panoply is the easiest way to sync, store, and access all your business data. The platform combines a powerful data warehouse with code-free ETL, which results in quick and easy setup and minimal upkeep. Users can query data directly in Panoply or connect their preferred analytical notebook or BI tool.

Pricing Structure
Segment Pricing
Segment’s pricing tiers are based on the number of data sources and customers or visitors that are being tracked. The platform offers a free version that includes 2 data sources and up to 1,000 visitors per month.
Panoply Pricing
Panoply offers both monthly and annual plans starting as low as $299 per month. Its pricing model is simple and transparent, based on how many query bytes users need. There are no extra fees for adding users or the number data connectors used so cost is more predictable than with pay-by-the-hour or pay-by-the-row models.
