Why teams switch from Braze

Predictable pricing

Braze uses opaque data-point billing with unpredictable annual costs of $60K-100K+. Pushwoosh charges by the number of devices from $0/mo with no data-point fees and no surprise invoices.

Easier and faster

Braze onboarding typically takes 6+ weeks and requires developer resources throughout. Pushwoosh SDK integration takes 2-10 days and no-code campaign setup means marketers can launch without dev support.

Full journey flexibility

Braze Canvas limits how event attributes can be used inside flows. With Pushwoosh, any event attribute is available at any step in your journey, and you can edit active campaigns without stopping them.

Self-serve, free plan included

Braze requires an enterprise sales process with no free plan. Pushwoosh offers a free plan up to 1K MAU and self-serve sign-up so your team can start building immediately.

Full feature-by-feature comparison

The complete picture. Every capability side by side so you can decide based on facts, not marketing.
