Which one is for you
Pick Businessmap if

- Makes sense if you tie OKRs and KPIs to boards
Look elsewhere if
- Watch out: no price could be read, and Enterprise goes through sales
- Tight if you need automation or SSO: both are add-ons priced through sales
- Not for you if you want a free plan or an instant trial, since the trial starts after a form
- Skip it if you want a desktop or phone app, as none is mentioned
Pick Fibery if
- Fits if you want to model your own process as linked databases
- Works for teams of up to 10 on the free plan, with observers and guests free on paid plans
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you want something ready the minute you sign up, because here you build the setup yourself
- Pricey if you're a big team, at $12 a user a month for Standard and $20 for Pro, billed annually
- Tight if you lean on automations or AI, as runs and credits are metered every month below Enterprise
- Tight if you stay free: 1 GB of files, 14 days of history, 250 automation runs a month, 1 synced integration and no AI
- Watch out: SAML SSO, SCIM and data residency outside the EU are Enterprise only, at $40 a user with a 25-user minimum
How we grade them
| 2.4GPABusinessmapFair | 2.8GPAFiberyGood | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | CNo price could be read from the page, so it sits in the middle by default. | CStandard is $12 a user a month billed annually, or $15 monthly, against an $8 middle and a $10 dear quarter for project tools here, and observers and guests cost nothing, which softens it. Custom apps, JavaScript automations and two-way Jira sync wait on Pro at $20, and Enterprise is $40 with a 25-user minimum. |
| Free plan and trial | CA free trial on request: a vendor-run form sets up the account, and the card terms aren't stated. No free plan. | BFree takes 10 users and 10 guests with 10 databases, unlimited entities, docs, formulas and automations, so a small team can really live on it. The caps are there: 1 GB of files, 14 days of history, 250 automation runs a month, 1 synced integration and no AI credits. |
| Features | BKanban workflows, portfolios, OKRs, planning, AI tools and automation. The listing shows no gap in the core job. | BCovers the whole job, shaped by you: linked databases shown as a table, board, calendar, timeline, Gantt chart, map or form, with docs, whiteboards, no-code automations and continuous sync from Jira, Zendesk and GitHub. Gantt views and whiteboards stay private below Standard, and automations and AI are metered. |
| Ease of use | CNo store rating on record, and boards, workflows and portfolios have to be built. | CNo App Store rating on record, and this is the sort of tool where you build the thing before you use it: databases, relations, views. Templates for product teams, software teams, agencies and startups give you a head start on the building. |
| Platforms and integrations | BWeb only, but with Jira, GitLab, Bitbucket, Power BI, Tableau, Zapier, Make and Okta links. | AWeb, Mac, Windows, iPhone and Android, plus a browser extension, with no Linux app listed. It syncs with Jira, GitHub, GitLab, Slack, Zendesk, Intercom and HubSpot, connects through Zapier, and has a remote MCP server on every plan. |

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
