FilaMan is a genuinely impressive open-source project: a fully MIT-licensed, self-hosted filament manager with a DIY ESP32 load-cell scale, PN532 NFC, a big open filament database and hooks into Bambu, Klipper and OctoPrint. If you love running your own Docker server and don't mind a soldering iron, it's a great hobby setup, and we'll happily concede where it shines.
The difference is what it takes to make tracking happen. FilaMan can deduct filament automatically, but only if you build an ESP32 scale, or stand up an external Bambuddy server, or wire a Klipper/Moonraker plugin, each one self-hosted and printer-specific. SimplyPrint's filament manager reads the G-code of every print on any connected printer, including cloud Bambu and Prusa, and deducts usage on its own, with no scale, no broker, no plugin and no server for you to run. Here's a fair, side-by-side look, first purely as a filament manager, then as the whole platform.
Automatic usage tracking, NFC across every standard, Bambu & Creality AMS auto-import, direct Dymo & Zebra label printing, drying, storage locations, a mobile app and the Open Filament Database. See it all, with screenshots, on one page.

Compare FilaMan vs SimplyPrint:
FilaMan is a fully open-source (MIT), self-hosted filament manager built around a DIY ESP32 scale and PN532 NFC, with a large open community database and printer hooks for Bambu, Klipper and OctoPrint. It's a great fit if you want to own your whole stack, run your own Docker server and enjoy building hardware, and it's free to self-host (its mobile apps put core features behind a paid in-app purchase).
SimplyPrint is a connected filament manager that's been running inside a print platform since 2020: it reads the G-code of every print on any connected printer, including cloud Bambu and Prusa, and deducts filament automatically, with no scale, no broker, no plugin and no server to run. Add native cross-brand NFC and AMS auto-import from your phone or browser, direct Dymo and Zebra label printing, free iOS and Android apps, the open MIT Open Filament Database (151 brands), and a full platform around it, all free on every plan. If you want tracking that just happens with nothing to build, that's SimplyPrint; if self-hosting an open-source tool and building your own scale is the point, that's FilaMan.
Comparing purely as a filament manager, the deep, head-to-head view.
FilaMan can track usage automatically, and that's real, credit where it's due. The catch is everything you have to assemble first. SimplyPrint is already connected to your printer, so the tracking just happens.
FilaMan is something you run. SimplyPrint is something you sign in to. That shows up in who keeps the server alive and what it costs to use on your phone.
FilaMan is a well-made open-source project, and for some setups it's the right call. Credit where it's due:
FilaMan does one job, filament management, and self-hosts it openly. SimplyPrint includes that same filament manager and surrounds it with the rest of a print operation: a print queue, a full cloud slicer, AI failure and bed detection, a maintenance system, teams and permissions, mobile apps and more, in one hosted platform that's free to start. In the table below, FilaMan's column is filament; ours is the whole platform.

Nothing is black-and-white, and there are always pros and cons to consider when choosing a 3D printing cloud solution!
And we're not here to simply tell you, that SimplyPrint is the best - we want you to make an informed decision, and of course there are pros of using FilaMan as well!
