A detailed breakdown of what each platform offers.
Intro.js
Intro.js is a lightweight open-source JavaScript library for creating step-by-step product tours and feature introductions. It requires developer resources to implement, customize, and maintain.
Intro.js offers complete flexibility for developers who want to customize every aspect of the tour experience through code. It's free and open source under the MIT license (with commercial licenses available for specific uses), can be integrated into any framework, and has a smaller footprint on your site.
Produktly
Produktly provides a comprehensive digital adoption suite including product tours, checklists, roadmaps, changelogs, and feedback widgets - all through a no-code interface that can be managed by non-technical team members.
Produktly offers a complete no-code solution that can be managed without developer resources. Beyond tours, it includes checklists, roadmaps, changelogs, and feedback collection - creating a comprehensive digital adoption platform rather than just a tour library.
Both Intro.js and Produktly allow you to create product tours and feature introductions. The primary difference is in implementation approach - Intro.js requires developer resources and custom coding, while Produktly offers a no-code visual editor.

The resources required to implement and maintain the solution.
Intro.js requires developer resources both for initial implementation and for any future changes or updates to tours.
Produktly can be implemented and maintained by non-technical team members through its visual editor, requiring no developer resources.
For teams without dedicated developers or those looking to free up developer time, Produktly offers significant advantages.
Creating comprehensive onboarding for new users.
Intro.js provides basic tour functionality, but other onboarding elements like checklists would need to be built separately.
Produktly offers a complete onboarding toolkit with tours, checklists, and announcements in a unified experience.
For complete onboarding experiences, Produktly's all-in-one approach is more comprehensive.
How effectively each solution promotes new feature discovery and adoption.
Intro.js can highlight new features but lacks dedicated tools for announcing roadmaps or changes.
Produktly combines tours with roadmaps and changelogs, creating a complete cycle for announcing, teaching, and gathering feedback on features.
Produktly clearly outperforms for feature adoption with its integrated approach to the entire feature lifecycle.
The complete cost including license fees and resources.
While Intro.js is free, the developer time required for implementation and maintenance significantly increases total cost.
Produktly has a direct monthly cost but eliminates developer dependency, potentially saving thousands in engineering resources.
When considering the total cost including developer time, Produktly often provides better value for most organizations.
Intro.js and Produktly represent fundamentally different approaches to product tours. Intro.js is a free, open-source developer tool requiring technical resources to implement and maintain, while Produktly is a comprehensive no-code platform that can be managed by product and customer success teams without technical assistance.
What's your budget?
While Intro.js is free for most uses (with optional commercial licenses), the total cost of ownership often includes significant developer time for implementation and ongoing maintenance. For many teams, Produktly's $19/month subscription offers better overall value by eliminating developer dependency, even though it has a direct monthly cost.
Do you need exclusive features from Intro.js?
If your team has dedicated frontend developers who prefer complete code control and customization, and you only need basic tour functionality, the free and open-source Intro.js might be suitable for your needs.
Do you want to more holistically support your users?
If you want to eliminate developer dependency, need a complete solution beyond just tours, or want to empower your non-technical teams to create and update onboarding experiences, Produktly provides a more comprehensive and accessible approach.
