Before you choose
Start with free access
Check the free-plan label before comparing paid tiers.
A free trial can provide a separate way to try a paid service. Felt, Scribble Maps and EasyMapMaker list seven-day trials.
Match the platform
Confirm where the tool runs before you choose it. The comparison covers web, API, Android, iOS, self-hosted and Windows availability.
An API option suits software that needs map features inside another product. Self-hosted availability matters when the map service must run on your own infrastructure.
Review map controls
Use the Map layers field to compare how a tool handles geographic content. Data refresh shows how current its displayed information may be.
Viewer limit and Embed options matter when a map needs to appear in a site or app and serve a defined audience.
Plan branding and access
Check Custom branding when the map needs a specific visual identity. Check Access control when viewing or editing rights must be managed.
These fields sit beside pricing and platform details, so compare them together rather than choosing on price alone.
Check paid starting prices
The listed paid starting points vary by product and currency. MapChart lists paid plans from €4.99, Scribble Maps from $14 per month on annual billing, Mapotic from $19 per month, EasyMapMaker from $29 per user per month and MapTiler Cloud from $30 per month.
A free plan or trial does not describe the full paid feature set. Review the maker's terms before committing.
Check the licence
Open-source status is marked in the comparison. If you need to read, change or host code, check the licence and the self-hosted field for the tool you are considering.
