Maptio vs SimpleOrgChart

Maptio is a tool for visualising how an organisation or initiative is organised and sharing that view. Users can map areas of responsibility, teams, projects, and people's roles in nested circles, showing who leads or supports work and who collaborates with whom. The Learning Hub covers creating and editing circles, tags, adding and inviting people, and working with roles. Maps can be shared privately, published at a public URL, or embedded in another website. Users can also link to external documents and resources. Maptio is presented for organisations and coaches; coaches can request an account to map multiple client organisations without a separate subscription for each. Its code is open source and can be examined, used, modified, distributed, and contributed to. The self-hosted option requires users to install and run an instance and handle setup, support, and maintenance. Maptio Standard costs $10 a month for the whole organisation, up to 300 people, and includes unlimited maps, hosted access, and human-powered tech support. A 30-day trial is listed.

SimpleOrgChart turns Microsoft Entra information read through Microsoft Graph into an interactive web org chart and employee directory. The chart supports panning, zooming, branch expansion and collapse, and keeping selected subtrees hidden. The searchable directory has configurable filters for guest and disabled users. Admin reports cover missing managers, sign-in activity, recent hires, filtered users, missing profile pictures or hire dates, and data quality issues. Charts can be exported as SVG, PNG or PDF snapshots, while reports and chart data can be exported to XLSX. Scheduled email reports can run daily, weekly or monthly through configured SMTP, but this feature is disabled by default. The default setup leaves the chart public and password-protects administrator pages; optional OIDC can require Microsoft sign-in and group membership. Some reports and functions require extra Graph permissions and synced data. The project recommends Docker Compose and does not support local execution outside Docker. It is free open-source software under the MIT License. Deployment requires Docker and an Azure AD/Entra tenant with privileges to create app registrations and grant Graph application permissions.
