Comapping review
A collaborative mapping tool with desktop editing, task features, and narrow export support.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Comapping is online mind mapping software for taking notes, planning, organizing information, and sharing connected-topic maps. It is aimed at individuals, project teams, educators, classrooms, and organizations that need shared visual outlining rather than a standalone diagram editor. The product works in a browser and offers desktop applications for Windows, macOS, and Linux, with offline editing available through the desktop application. A single map supports up to 20 active collaborators, alongside chat, task management, presentations, file attachments, and image thumbnails.
Pricing spans a free offering and legacy paid editions. The Personal Edition — Online plan is listed at $25 per user per year with annual billing and covers note-taking, planning, and organization. The Personal Edition — Desktop plan is listed at $49 per user for a permanent desktop license. Team/Professor Group Edition plans are available in online and desktop versions for 5, 15, or 25 users, with project work and group collaboration highlighted for online editions and permanent desktop licenses highlighted for desktop editions. The product also states that it became free to use on November 1, 2025, while retaining paid pricing tables and noting that it may be retired after one year.
Comapping’s strongest fit is for small groups that want shared maps, built-in discussion, lightweight task tracking, and presentation mode in one workspace. Auto-save and server backups support ongoing online work, while desktop access helps users continue editing offline. Its ecosystem is narrower than products built around broad integrations: the listed native export format is .comap, and no wider integration set is identified. The site also relies on Adobe Flash, which reached end of life in 2020, creating a compatibility concern. Choose Comapping for focused collaborative mapping across web and desktop; choose an alternative when modern compatibility, extensive integrations, or flexible export formats are central requirements.
