IDA vs Digitree: Which fits you?
An honest comparison between two professional tree management systems for municipalities and green managers.
Both are professional solutions
Digitree and IDA are both serious platforms for professional tree management. Both offer mobile apps, web interfaces, and functionality for inventory, inspections, and maintenance. The question isn't which is 'better' — but which better fits your organization.
This comparison helps you understand the key differences, so you can make an informed choice.
The key differences
The biggest difference is in focus. Digitree is an international platform that works in multiple countries and requires configuration to meet Dutch standards. IDA is specifically built for the Dutch market, with Handboek Bomen 2022 compliance as standard and a pricing model that fits how Dutch municipalities work.
IDA's Key Differentiators
IDA differentiates itself from other tree management platforms on four key points:
User-friendliness first
IDA is built with the user at the center. Field workers can start immediately after a short introduction. No weeks of training, no thick manuals — just intuitive work.
Fair pricing model
Pay for your tree inventory, not for the number of users. This means you can equip your entire team without costs escalating. Transparent, predictable, and fair.
Dutch market focus
IDA is specifically developed for the Dutch market. Compliance with Handboek Bomen 2022 is standard, workflows are aligned with how Dutch municipalities work, and support speaks your language — literally and figuratively.
Personal guidance
Direct contact with people who understand how municipal tree management works. No ticket systems or call centers — real experts who know you and can help immediately.
