What do you like best about TerrSet?

Range of tools.

Step-wise helps with references. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TerrSet?

Lack of customisability of the map outputs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering TerrSet:

Without having the knowledge of a GIS analyst/specialist, I found the program to be intellectually stimulating while giving all the help needed to perform the analysis. The help section built in the program tells everything you need to know to understand the models with references. I didn't take the help guide lightly because I was brain storming alone in my project and did not have access to any GIS specialist. The help section indeed save my dissertation. Although I did not face any technical/academic difficulties, I only reached to the team when I needed some help in installing my software and the response to my mail was lightening fast. I recommend Terrset to my colleagues and I implore you to give Terrset a chance too! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is TerrSet solving and how is that benefiting you?

I bought a student license to complete my Masters (Wildlife Science) dissertation analysis of wildlife corridors using Land Change Modeler tool. It helped me realise how powerful and data inexpensive the tool is to identify wildlife corridor pinches which can be used to direct the survey efforts to increase feasibility for conservation.

What do you like best about TerrSet?

I like it has comprehensive functions doing both vector and raster analysis.

It has eight modules focusing on different projects.

It has the best Land Change Analysis tool in the field.

It is easy to handle massive amount of raster data and it has powerful Time Series Analysis.

It is quite stable with few bugs and it has a very detailed and helpful user guide/tutorial.

I believe it is a must-have software if you are in conservation GIS, Remote Sensing, or GIS academy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TerrSet?

Overall it is a powerful Geospatial Analysis software, but it just has a little bit outdated GUI design compared to ArcGIS software from Esri.

It needs users to have a more advanced GIS/remote sensing background to learn how to use it faster.

It doesn't have a good mapping layout functionality which we still need to export to ArcGIS to do it, and it doesn't have a good vector visualization overlapping with base maps like QGIS can offer.

It can do some improvement for vector analysis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is TerrSet solving and how is that benefiting you?

I was majorly doing GIS conservation projects, and also land use and land change time series studies in academy.

It also has strong deep learning alrigorm such as MLP (Multilayer Perceptron).

I realized it is powerful with a fast processing speed and it can do batch processing for a lot of raster files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
