What do you dislike about Esri ArcGIS?

Extremely high costs for advanced license Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Esri ArcGIS:

If you can afford it, this product is the way to go. It is the industry standard and offers far more support than any other GIS software. A standard license for business use is upwards of $7,000 per user, but many companies (including mine) find that this cost is offset by the benefits of this product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easily and quickly produce and analyze high-quality geographic data. The software allows us to solve an array of geographic problems and is easily shareable with other users and online. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
