DYNO Mapper vs Visual Sitemaps (2026): which should you pick?

Pick DYNO Mapper if

• Fits if you're an agency or UX team mapping a site before a redesign
• Works for organizations that need WCAG and Section 508 accessibility checks

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you want the audit, accessibility tests or rank tracking on Lite, as they start at Pro, $49 a month billed yearly
• Pricey if you need scheduled crawls or private site crawling, which start at Standard, $99 a month billed yearly
• Too light for large sites, as crawls stop at 2,500 to 25,000 pages and more needs Enterprise
• Tight if you're a team on Lite or Pro, which are 1 user each
• Watch out: monthly plans have a one-month minimum term and annual plans a one-year minimum

Pick Visual Sitemaps if

• Fits if you plan a redesign and want the whole site laid out as boxes with screenshots
• Works for agencies that present site structure to clients

Look elsewhere if

• Tight if you stay free: 25 pages a month and 2 levels of crawl depth
• Skip it if you need to know the regular price, as the page shows only 6-month sale prices
• Watch out: a Cyber Sale banner shows 50% off ending Nov 30, so the prices shown are not the long-run ones
• Not for you if you want AI maps or scheduled crawls on a small budget, as they start on the paid plans

DYNO Mapper

• Lite leaves out the content inventory, audit, rank tracking and accessibility testing; those start at Pro, $49 a month billed annually.
• Scheduled crawls and crawling of private sites start at Standard, $99 a month billed annually.
• Crawls are capped at 2,500 to 25,000 pages depending on the plan; larger limits need an Enterprise plan.
• Monthly plans have a one-month minimum term and annual plans a one-year minimum.

Visual Sitemaps

• The pricing page shows only sale prices, and the regular monthly price that applies afterward is not displayed.
• The free plan stops at 25 pages per month and 2 crawl levels, and lacks AI maps, scheduled crawls and private-site crawling.
• A Cyber Sale banner lists 50% off, ending Nov 30, for the first 6 months on monthly plans or the first year on annual plans.
• The Pro trial allows 25 pages and 3 AI optimized maps before paid limits apply.
