MariaGuides vs Haiku
Haiku, a WalkMe product, offers SSO on its Team plan and ISO 27001 certification. MariaGuides gives you Markdown and more guides free.
Checked · 2 min read
Where MariaGuides wins
- PDF and Markdown export on the free plan, with a small "Made with MariaGuides" footer. Haiku's free plan exports PDF, and Markdown is on Pro.
- 25 active guides on the free plan, against 10 guides on Haiku's free plan.
- A lower price, for one person and for a team of 5, billed annually or monthly. The figures are under Pricing below.
Where Haiku is ahead
- SSO from the Team plan, at $8 a user a month billed annually, and SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001 and ISO 27701 certification.
- Word export on Pro, and desktop capture: its FAQ says Haiku offers "desktop capture and SOC 2 security at every tier", though its free plan card lists "Browser capture".
