Formleak vs Microsoft Clarity
The short answer: A free behaviour analytics tool from Microsoft: session recordings, heatmaps and funnels. Formleak does one thing: which form field makes people give up, and how to fix it. Microsoft Clarity is best for anyone who wants free recordings and heatmaps and doesn't need field-by-field form numbers; Formleak is best for small businesses, marketers and agencies who want the answer without watching recordings.

Where Formleak is different
- Clarity has no field-by-field form funnel; Formleak's whole product is that funnel, with the worst field in red.
- In the EU, UK and Switzerland Clarity waits for cookie consent, so it only sees part of your visitors. Formleak sets no cookies.
- Formleak gives you a fix and a rewritten label instead of recordings to watch.
Choose Microsoft Clarity if…
- You want free session recordings and heatmaps for your whole site, and are fine with a cookie banner.
- You're happy to work out which field is the problem by watching recordings.
Questions
- Is Formleak a good Microsoft Clarity alternative?
- If you mainly want to know which form field makes people give up and what to change, yes: that's all Formleak does, for €19 a month per website. If you want free session recordings and heatmaps for your whole site, and are fine with a cookie banner, Microsoft Clarity may suit you better.
- How much does Microsoft Clarity cost for form analytics?
- Free (no paid plan). Checked on 21 October 2026 on Microsoft Clarity's own pricing page.
- Does Microsoft Clarity use cookies?
- First- and third-party Microsoft cookies; consent is enforced for visitors from the EEA, UK and Switzerland since 31 October 2025. Formleak sets no cookies and never reads what people type.
