Why teams choose AnnounceFly over Canny

Canny is great at feedback and voting. But it leaves big gaps in your user communication stack.

📣

Announcements Canny lacks

Canny doesn't have an in-app announcement widget or email broadcast system. AnnounceFly fills both gaps — in the same dashboard you use for feedback.

💸

8x cheaper for growing teams

Canny charges $400+/month once your team grows. AnnounceFly's Agency plan covers unlimited projects at $49/month — that's not a typo.

📰

A real changelog, not an afterthought

Canny's changelog is basic. AnnounceFly gives you a beautiful public changelog page, customisable per-category, with subscriber email broadcasts.

🔔

In-app notification bell

Embed a notification bell in your product so users see new announcements and updates without leaving your app. Canny doesn't offer this.

🚀

All five tools in one

Canny + Beamer + a roadmap tool + a feedback form = four different tools to maintain. AnnounceFly is one platform with one billing, one login, one team.

⚙️

5-minute setup

One script tag and you're live. No developer deep-dive, no complex integration setup. Canny's full implementation often takes days.

What teams say after switching from Canny

★★★★★

"We were paying Canny $400/month just for feedback and voting. AnnounceFly gives us that plus a full changelog and announcements for $49. The maths were too good to ignore."

Sophie K.
VP Product, Series A SaaS
★★★★★

"Canny doesn't have in-app announcements. We were using three different tools. AnnounceFly replaced all of them. Our users are actually more engaged now."

Ahmed R.
Product Manager, EdTech
★★★★★

"I love how AnnounceFly closes the loop — collect feedback, prioritise with votes, update the roadmap, then announce the release. All in one tool."

Laura D.
Founder, SaaS Startup
