simple, easy to use software. helps me to meet a multitude of requirements. the development in the software over the last 10 years of my usage has cemented esri as the main contender for gis products Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
military analyst being removed from generations since 10.1. the inability to strip basemapping data for offline mode easily Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that ARCGIS is easy to get started with and simple to understand. The graphics and the UI of the program make it easy to use and develop complicated mapping systems with relative ease. There are many layers and options of viewing and mapping data points. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Can be difficult to get the locations correct without some information. Can be confusing if you are not careful. Some demographics can be slow to update and lag if connection is not strong. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I the functions and the complete user experience with ArcMap and ArcCatalog. In addition, the new capabilitites with ArcMap with 3rd party applications and software such as google earth, tools and spatial analysis tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The dislike would be the wait time for an update to resolve issues of an older version of ArcMap. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
ArcGIS platform and suite of software products provide the best there is for doing deep GIS. The latest release of ArcGIS Pro contains the FME 2018 engine which allows embedded full motion video within any spatial GIS model you have built. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Esri should invest in creating a native MacOS version, even though they have iOS versions. I know this means a complete makeover of the core architecture, but the acceleration it could provide running on the OSX unix platform would make for the best of the elegance of user interface, the security of a Unix runtime architecture, and the speed of code execution that Apple Computer is extremely jealous about maintaining.

I Like ArcMAP mainly for the flexibility and ease of use in creating professional quality spatial maps for clients and potential projects. It's interface is easy to understand and use with just a few hours of training and guidance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Not really a dislike, but you should really use a desktop computer with some processing power to be able to use multiple tools on multiple maps - all at the same time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
ESRI software can meet most of your organization's geospatial needs with little to no coding background required. If you need to quickly stand up apps, web maps, and hard copy map production, then ESRI software will likely be a good option. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
ESRI software carries a hefty price tag, and switching to other software vendors down the road will be very time consuming. The web application deployment environment leaves much to be desired (latitude geographics Geocortex product does this far better). The software is rather buggy, and can be maddening to work with at times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The flexibility to solve any spatial problem presented given the time and creativity to tackle it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The somewhat steep learning curve to be up and running well. Licensing and extensions are also confusing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
This product enable our county to consider needs and provide vital services. In collaboration with the Sherriff Department we can bring medical, mental health and substance use tretament to those in our frontier areas. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing yet. I dont have emought knowledge yet Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
ArcGIS allows to to do almost anything spatially. You can build maps, edit maps, analyze raster data, make 3D terrain models, create geodatabases, create georeferencing and so many other things. The ArcCatalog lets you connect to GIS servers in the cloud. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Its endless features make it extremely hard for an inexperienced user to find exactly what they want to do. The ArcGIS Pro is incredibly expensive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
