Vapourware stay away

marsofearth on

This company creates very expensive software that has ok functionality, but becomes buggy and no updates. Instead of updating, they create another very expensive piece of software and repeat. They do spend a bit on marketing so that is likely why the price incredibly high for what you get and the absolute lack of support. There are much better GIS software out there for iOS.

Good App - No Support

Wcb234 on

I have had this app 5 years and loved it. There has only been one update I can remember and it messed everything up. Wish it had a function to delete last upgrade. Emails to support never get answered.

Expensive for the support

rdman1975 on

No updates in over 11 months and how many updates to iOS since that time. Totally unprofessional to offer software at such an expensive price with so little time devoted to updates. I buy apps for dollars that have better support and updates. This software crashes multiple times per day. Again, extremely frustrating when you spend $400.00 for an app. Either keep up the development and updates or cut the price of your app.

Mistake to buy

Unrelenting unsolicited on

Easy to import custom maps into free apps such as Avenza PDF maps using Dropbox. Almost impossible here. $399 and this is not seamless?? I wish I could get my money back. Fix please!!

GIS Pro leaves you hanging

DuckGirlWL2015 on

This app works as advertised but for one annoying glitch - it constantly reverts to the background while being used and the iPad goes back to the homescreen. When it does so, it loses the area you are zoomed into, loses edits you might be making, and turns off the GPS if you were using it. Takes 10 seconds or so to get back into the app and get back to what you were doing - not a long time but it happens every few minutes so overall very annoying. I wouldn't recommend this app until they have fixed this problem, which they so far have not been able to do for my iPad Air.

GIS Pro

This app was incredible until the IOS8 update. I used it to GPS numerous tracks and it worked flawlessly with the Google Earth or Bing cached in the background. After IOS8 it has become useless due to constant glitches. I have given it a couple months now for support to work their magic and it still does not work correctly - often kicking me out of the program every five minutes or so. It appears that the most expensive app I ever purchased is also unfortunately the most useless. :( Update: Feb.20/15 This app still does not work. DO NOT BUY IT!!!!!!!

Well Worth the Cost

Snurg on

Overall, I have to say I am very happy with this app. I was looking for a way to collect GIS information on my Apple based products (iPhone iPad), but remain within the ESRI .shp file environment. This app suited my needs perfectly. Things that I love: - Ability to quickly and easily import and export .shp files (very slick) - Ability to create and share "feature classes". ArcPad and Terrasync have similar abilities, however they are clunky compaired to this. - Costs a fraction of what ArcPad and Terrasync cost. - Runs on iOS based devices. Checkmate. ArcPad and Terrasync run on windows mobile, which is esentially a dead operating system (as far as I know).

Excellent
