The e!Sankey alternative that shows its prices
e!Sankey (ifu Hamburg / iPoint) is a polished desktop tool used across industry. We differ on three deliberate choices: we run in the browser, our pricing is public, and our engine doesn't just check balances — it reconciles your data.
| e!Sankey | OpenSankey / SankeySuite | |
|---|---|---|
| Platform | Windows desktop | Any browser, any OS |
| Pricing | On request (sales-led) | Public: free / €300 / €1,500 per year — details |
| Excel workflow | Live links to workbooks | Structured Excel templates, import/export round-trip |
| Balance handling | Balance check on processes | Constrained reconciliation + uncertainty + completion from partial data |
| Sharing | Static exports, viewer licences | Hosted interactive diagrams, embeddable for free viewers |
| Openness | Proprietary | Open-source editor, open file format, exportable data |
Where e!Sankey remains strong
Deep Microsoft-Office integration and a long industrial track record. If your workflow is a Windows workstation and PowerPoint deliverables, it is a safe choice. If your deliverable is a living diagram — shared by URL, updated yearly, drilled into by stakeholders — that's what we built OpenSankey for.
