Fibery vs airfocus: Organizational Schema or Portfolio Planning?
Choose Fibery when the system must model several business processes through related databases. Choose airfocus when portfolio roadmaps, OKRs and product prioritization should define the rollout.
Both products are configurable and can represent strategy, feedback and roadmaps. airfocus has custom fields and a custom product hierarchy; the choice is broader business-entity modeling versus the product portfolio capabilities and hierarchy depth actually included in the quote.
This documentation-based comparison uses the official references checked on November 4, 2026. The evaluation below is a proposed pilot for your team.
Fibery
Fibery can connect product work to other processes such as a customer database or resourcing records. For a portfolio decision, establish whether those additional entity relationships are necessary to explain the tradeoff rather than adding them because the schema permits it.
airfocus
airfocus by Lucid packages feedback, prioritization and product hierarchy for product planning. Professional has three hierarchy levels and an OKR add-on; Enterprise includes portfolio dashboards, OKRs and unlimited hierarchy levels. Those boundaries matter for a multi-product rollout.
Feature comparison
| Feature | Fibery | airfocus |
|---|---|---|
| Scope of modeling | Relational databases can represent diverse business entities and processes. | Hierarchy and portfolio views center product planning across teams and products. |
| Strategy view | Define strategic entities and related reporting in the custom model. | Objectives & OKRs are a Professional add-on and included in Enterprise portfolio planning. |
| Rollout work | Maintain schema, formulas and model-wide access rules. | Agree product hierarchy, scoring and governance with rollout stakeholders. |
Fibery pros
Business entities outside product planning can be connected to the portfolio model.
Fibery cons
A portfolio report is only comparable when the contributing databases use the same objective and dependency definitions. Test the second product line, not just the first configured team.
Pricing: Paid plans charge members; observers and guests are free. Free is limited to 10 users and 10 databases. Standard removes the database limit; Pro adds advanced permissions and JavaScript automations.
airfocus pros
Quoted portfolio and OKR capabilities can supply a defined planning structure.
airfocus cons
A pilot in an unrestricted demo can hide the hierarchy and portfolio features required in production. Run the evaluation against the quoted edition.
Pricing: Professional and Enterprise require a quote. Professional has a three-level product hierarchy and offers Objectives & OKRs as an add-on. Enterprise includes OKRs, portfolio dashboards and unlimited hierarchy levels; free contributors are included. The two-product pilot must be quoted with its hierarchy depth and portfolio/OKR requirements, not a single-team demonstration tier.
Choose Fibery if you need
- - The portfolio decision needs customer, resourcing or other business entities outside the proposed product hierarchy, and the shared schema remains understandable.
Choose airfocus if you need
- - The portfolio needs OKRs and product-level rollups, and the quoted hierarchy depth and Enterprise capabilities match the review.
