The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Doodle free plan restricted to one active poll and one booking page with 10-slot limit; Komoot offline maps are sold per geographic region rather than per user, so coverage is bought as a Single Region, a Region Bundle or the World Pack
  • They diverge on capability: Doodle covers Group polls, Komoot covers Route planning.
