How a map gets made, and how it changes
The biggest practical difference is what happens between a floor plan and a live screen. Left, what 22Miles’ pages describe. Right, what DigiMaps does.
22Miles, as its pages describe it
- Send the plans Send labelled floor maps, and its team handles the mapping.
- Or convert with AI AI Map File Creation in DX Pro turns 2D floor plans into editable SVG wayfinding maps.
- Edit Rearrange rooms, paths or whole layouts in the Publisher Pro map editor.

DigiMaps
- Bring in the drawings DXF imports directly, DWG through a converter. AI tracing proposes rooms from a PDF or image, and each one waits in a review queue.

Screen numbers we can show you

- 5 Remote kiosk commands 1 Identify, reload, clear cache, screenshot, restart
- 5 Signage slide types Picture, video, text, web page, HTML5 package

- 8 On-screen keyboard scripts Including Arabic, Persian, Urdu and Devanagari
- 3 Feed formats for other players RSS 2.0 with Media RSS, JSON Feed 1.1, iCalendar

Three example projects, and where each lands
Example scenarios, not customers. They show how the same requirement list can point either way.
-
Example scenario A · not a customer
A university replacing lobby signage, meeting-room panels and its campus map at the same time
22Miles is the closer fit
22Miles sells all three. DigiMaps doesn’t do room booking, so you would still need a second system.
-
Example scenario B · not a customer
A hospital that already runs BrightSign players under its own signage CMS, and wants wayfinding without changing it
DigiMaps fits alongside
The players can show a DigiMaps signage page or directory board, or read its RSS, JSON Feed and iCal feeds. We test each player model on site first.
-
Example scenario C · not a customer
A government service hall with no internet link, where Arabic comes first
Ask both, then test
Both state on-premises deployment. Ask 22Miles about air-gapped operation and right-to-left layout. DigiMaps does both today, with offline updates.
Questions to ask 22Miles, us, or any signage vendor selling maps
| Ask | A good answer includes |
|---|---|
| Is wayfinding a module of your signage CMS, or can we buy it on its own? | A clear answer on licensing, and whether the map runs on players you already own. |
| Who makes the map, and who edits it after go-live? | The file you send, who reviews the result, and which edits your own team can make. |
| Can a map change be reviewed before it goes live, and undone afterwards? | A demo of approval, a scheduled publish and a rollback. |
| Do step-free routes ever include stairs? | A wheelchair route in the demo that never touches a stair. |
| Show the kiosk in Arabic, right to left. | A mirrored layout, Arabic search, and a named person who approves translations. |
| Can it run with no internet connection at all? | Offline updates, and no outbound calls by default. |
Other 22Miles alternatives, compared the same way:
Who we are: DigiSigns and DigiMaps22Miles or DigiMaps: common questions
Is 22Miles a digital signage company or a wayfinding company?
Both. 22Miles describes itself as a digital signage and wayfinding provider, and its DX Pro platform covers signage, wayfinding, immersive content and space management. DigiMaps is wayfinding software. Our parent company, DigiSigns, makes signage software as a separate product.
Does 22Miles offer on-premises hosting?
Yes. 22Miles says DX Pro supports both cloud and on-premises deployment. DigiMaps also runs on one server on your network, including fully air-gapped sites with offline updates.
Does DigiMaps do room booking or video walls?
No. DigiMaps covers wayfinding, directory boards, signage playlists on idle kiosks, and live notices and emergencies. For meeting-room panels and video walls, a signage suite such as 22Miles covers more.
Can DigiMaps run on the signage players we already have?
Usually, if the player can open a web page or read an RSS feed. We have setup notes for Xibo, BrightSign, Yodeck and ScreenCloud. No third-party player model has been verified by us yet, so we test each one on site before go-live.
How do 22Miles and DigiMaps price?
Neither publishes prices. 22Miles says it prices by buildings and floors, not square footage, with unlimited users. DigiMaps is priced per venue, based on floor area, floors, screens, languages and hosting, and we send a written quote.
