The short version

  • Only Mappedin has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Leica Infinity leica publishes no pricing at all and sells through dealers, so identical firms in different regions pay different rates for the same modules and cannot benchmark a quote.; Mappedin location naming is the leading source of integration failures, requiring manual cleanup of AI-generated labels
  • They diverge on capability: Leica Infinity covers Multi-sensor project, Mappedin covers Core Functionality.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Leica Infinity

  • Leica publishes no pricing at all and sells through dealers, so identical firms in different regions pay different rates for the same modules and cannot benchmark a quote.
  • It is modular, which means the advertised capability list is not what you get: sensor and processing modules are licensed separately and the useful configuration costs considerably more than the entry one.
  • Third-party instrument data is supported but always second-class; a mixed Leica and Trimble fleet will have one manufacturer’s raw data going through a lossier import path.
  • Windows only, with no macOS, Linux or browser option, which is a hard constraint for organisations moving field and office work to tablets or cloud desktops.
  • Perpetual licences require an ongoing customer care contract to receive updates and support, so the perpetual option saves less over five years than it first appears.

Mappedin

  • Location naming is the leading source of integration failures, requiring manual cleanup of AI-generated labels
  • Multi-building campus maps not supported for Microsoft Places integration
  • No native digital signage CMS for integrated sign management
  • Limited analytics capabilities compared to competitors in complex enterprise environments

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Leica Infinity: Is Leica Infinity available as a perpetual licence?

Yes. Leica sells Infinity both as a subscription and as a perpetual licence, though updates on a perpetual licence require an active customer care contract.

Mappedin: Does Mappedin support multi-building campus mapping?

Mappedin supports multi-building deployments, but the Places integration requires each building to be mapped as a separate venue rather than as one unified campus map.

Source
Leica Infinity: How much does it cost?

Leica does not publish prices. Infinity is quoted per module through authorised dealers.

Mappedin: How long does it take to deploy Mappedin for a large venue?

Large venue deployments typically go live within 30-60 days from contract signature. The Mappedin Maker platform enables rapid map creation from floor plans, with professional map-making services available for additional fees.

Source
Leica Infinity: Does it work with non-Leica instruments?

It imports common third-party and standard formats, but Leica raw data is the first-class path. Expect reduced fidelity with competing raw formats.

Mappedin: What platforms and SDKs does Mappedin provide?

Mappedin offers SDKs for Web, iOS, and Android, plus comprehensive APIs and webhooks for integrations. The platform supports venues including airports, shopping malls, stadiums, workplaces, and healthcare facilities.

Source
Leica Infinity: Is there a free version?

No, only a 30-day trial.

Mappedin: Does Mappedin have a free plan?

Yes, Mappedin offers a free plan for creating one initial digital map at app.mappedin.com. Pricing is subscription-based and scales with building size in square footage or square meters.

Source
Leica Infinity: Does it replace Cyclone for scanning?

No. Infinity handles scan data in a survey context; heavy registration and modelling work still belongs in Leica Cyclone.

Mappedin: What compliance certifications does Mappedin have?

Mappedin is SOC2 certified, GDPR compliant, and WCAG accessible. The platform includes real-time data management and analytics capabilities.
