One difference is that DeviceNet only allows up to 64 nodes in one network segment, CANopen up to 127.

DeviceNet has a stricter physical layout specification. This allows a higher level of standard and plug-and-play support.

CANopen is more flexible than DeviceNet when it comes to supporting communication functions and physical implementation.
