Announcekit is an excellent tool for publishing changelogs and communicating with your users. Announcekit allows you to collect feedback from your users, send emails and even create targeted personalized updates for specific user segments.
But it does come with a starting price tag of $79/month which is a lot more than most of its competitors. In this article we're going to compare Announcekit to couple of other tools and see if there is a better alternative to Announcekit that is cheaper and offers similar features.
Lets start with the most obvious and the easiest to use tool: GitHub Releases.
changes.page
changes.page offers a free plan that allows you to publish unlimited changelogs, comes with several customization options and it is very easy to use. You can create a page and have it ready in a few minutes. You can also add a logo, a background image and publish it using a custom domain using the paid plan. It also allows you to automate the process of publishing changelogs using Zapier, and this is available in the free plan.
The paid plan also allows you white label the page and make it your own. Unlike headwayapp, changes.page is only $5/page/month which is a great deal compared to the $29/month that headwayapp charges.
