The Verdict
June is the faster, simpler choice for a small B2B SaaS team that just wants account-level insight without a learning curve. Amplitude wins once you need session replay, experimentation, or serious segmentation at scale — and given that Amplitude acquired June in 2024, migrating now may just get you ahead of an eventual forced transition. If your team is past 10-15 people or your data needs are growing, start building in Amplitude directly.

- 3Update your tracking layer — whether you use Segment, RudderStack, or a direct SDK — to send new events to Amplitude instead of June.

June vs Amplitude: common questions
How do I export my data from June before switching to Amplitude?+
Go to Settings → Data Export in June to download your raw event and user data as CSV files. For larger or ongoing exports, June also exposes an API you can query for historical event history. Do this before cancelling your plan, since access to export tools is usually cut off once your subscription ends.
What do I lose if I move from June to Amplitude?+
You lose June's native B2B account rollups and the simplicity of its pre-built dashboards — Amplitude requires you to configure similar views manually. You'll also need to rebuild the Slack digest reports using Amplitude's notebooks or a third-party integration, since they don't transfer automatically.
Is Amplitude's free plan enough for a small team?+
For most early-stage teams, yes — the free Starter plan covers up to 50,000 monthly tracked users, which is more headroom than June's free tier. You won't get session replay or experimentation on the free plan, but core event tracking, funnels, and retention analysis are included.
Does Amplitude integrate with the same tools June does?+
Amplitude's integration catalog is significantly larger, covering Segment, RudderStack, Salesforce, HubSpot, Zapier, and most major CDPs and data warehouses. If you're currently piping data into June through Segment or a similar tool, redirecting that same pipeline to Amplitude is usually a config change, not a rebuild.
Will switching to Amplitude cost more long term?+
It depends on your growth: Amplitude's pricing scales with monthly tracked users, so costs can rise faster than June's flatter tiers once you cross a few hundred thousand MTUs. However, since Amplitude now owns June, there's a real chance June's standalone product gets phased out over time, making an eventual move to Amplitude likely regardless of near-term cost.
