ArcGIS Developer Technologies Reviews

The best thing about ArcGIS API is that it provides an easy to embed, implement maps and it's working using javascript in web applications we create. It is easy to implement, we have access to its samples through which we can guidance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ArcGIS API for JavaScript is solely responsible for providing maps services to its clients. I would like to see that in future ArcGIS API extends its branches to some other fields of Ecommerce. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't have any dislikes but we need css and html for creating a dynamic web applications Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The SDK is an all in one solution for all your needs from design to debug using .Net. we can easily design maps and share geographic information to other third party plugins using objects created with ArcGis. The geographic data compiled using this engine is more accurate and easily compatible/integrate with all other application. Its even faster to analyze mapped information and visualize with no hassle. Even though I know python, I feel its more easier for me to write code in .net with this SDK compared to that of using ArcPy library for python. the pre=built libraries are also useful at times and its totally worth it giving it a try for even budding developers because of its ease of use.

Even though the development part is so easy using python/.Net sdk but testing the developed application becomes difficult due to its incompatibility with most of the popular automation testing softwares like UFT and Test complete etc. I recommend to resolve this incompatibility so that most companies would lean towards using this product. This only improvement can really gain a lot of market. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s made my life so much easier by allowing me to automate and streamline processes for my job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can be a bit slow to log into my account through the API—about 20 seconds—which can take up the bulk of my script run time for simpler tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The transition from 3.x to 4.x provided the api with more flexability. Its resources make standing up an application easy Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The transition from 3.x to 4.x was difficult for me as it was a paradigm shift in how the map works and I had trouble getting started, retooling some existing apps Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to custom develop apps outside of Web AppBuilder and AGO. The customization is a lot more effective when it comes to popups, tables , geoprocessing tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The fact that there are so many different versions and a lot of the Samples are out of date or don't work when you are on the API page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the ESRI JS API because it has so many robust out-of-the-box and ready-to-use features. I focus mainly on 2D visualization, but I do like the 3D globe view for realism. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike the lack of native clustering support, lack of native in-map bar-chart symbology, and 4.x's general lack of parity with 3.x. I also wish ESRI would allow more customizability. I often use Leaflet because of how much more customizable it is. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My organization builds applications mainly using Python and the ArcGIS API is very easy to use and integrate with different programs using Python. The features that they provide such as using APIs for cross-platform and provide about 1,000,000 basemap and geocode transactions per month for free is great for start-ups.

There is a different Commercial Deployment version also for ArcGIS API for Python which includes all the features in the free version and additionally just gives deployment of unlimited revenue-generating apps and ESRI technical support. I believe that for the commercial version they can provide some more benefits to the user too so it can become satisfactory. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ArcGIS is compatible with Python, the worlds leading scripting language, as ArcGIS is gaining populatity with more than 10 percent of the GIS market share, it is usable in navigation for backpacking and outdoor use. I like the usability of the ArcGIS API for python, versus ANgular 2 for Google Maps. I can also integrate ArcGIS easily to many downstream applications, as development up-time is low so is responsive latency in testing and deployment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ArcGIS is sometimes out of this world, like a flying kite and need a virtual window manager to use.

My cat also mixes it up with the real world. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
