ArcGIS

Pros: Large amount of online documentation to assist users in completing their geospatial analysis. Bugs are well documented and work-arounds are available.

Cons: The licensing levels are frustrating. Most tasks can be completed with a basic licence, but when additional licensing is required for a certain tool the software has to be restarted which leads to a 10 minute delay. Working daily with an advanced licence is triple the cost.

Pros: The easy of use in the field is a game changer. Without it it would be a nightmare to manage if facilities.

Cons: The lack of a offline mode makes it difficult in areas where we have facilities. Also some of the add in county functions struggle to load.

Pros: ArcGIS is a valuable software that is essential to our operations. We use it to develop maps and then these maps are integrated into other software applications through the API or as standalone web applications. ArcGIS really is the industry standard.

Cons: We have to have someone on staff that is dedicated to running and maintaining our ArcGIS organization. There is absolutely a learning curve.

Pros: ArcGIS offers a highly intuitive interface, robust mapping features, and excellent data visualization tools for professionals.

Cons: Depending on how the data is structured and how you envision your visualization to look there can at times be a steep learning curve making it challenging for beginners

Pros: ArcGIS has proven to be a powerful spatial analysis tool. The analysis tools make it easy to perform complex tasks and allows detailed / high quality visualization for mapping.

Cons: ArcGis is definitely on the more expensive side but given we are a large corporation the fees aren't too bad. There is also a bit of a steep learning curve. It takes some time to get used to.

Pros: Broad capabilities and a multitude of integrations with other software

Cons: Unexpected errors that shut down the whole program, and some of the interfaces are not intuitive

Pros: ArcGIS is a strong tool to visualizing and analize spatial information

Cons: The software can be quite expensive for small teams.

Pros: In general, it's pretty easy to use. One of the things I like the most, is that it's really easy to edit features, something that may be tedious with other open-source software.

Cons: I need to buy a license to use certain tools. Also, it's common to experience lags when using raster data. Besides, customer support is not the best quality for this product.

Pros: Massive range of different mapping and analytical tools suitable for a wide range of abilities

Cons: Can be a very steep learning curve when using ArcGIS Pro (the desktop app)

Pros: This is industry standard, vast in scope, and can do pretty much anything in the geospatial space. Don't underestimate how complex the underpinning logic is, however it manages to present relatively complex data manipulation in a relatively easy package targeted at expert of lay person alike.

Cons: Primarily cost - to achieve a "full" license with a spectrum of functionality will have a significant cost base. You get what you pay for and while there are open source alternatives, they don't present such a complete and compelling package.

Pros: The tools (especially geoprocessing tools) provide options to users when developing an interactive map.

Cons: The filling system is not user-friendly.

Pros: Implementing layers and maps from online resources is user-friendly.

Cons: ArcGIS software works slowly in Windows. Especially, when a map is loaded it takes time to zoom in or out.

Pros: With additional modules, there is nothing you cannot do in GIS.

Cons: It's a pity that the desktop version stays on x86. For x64 the pro version is mandatory, it is very different.

Pros: 1. accessible 2. great for interior/exterior planning 3.Works extremely well for storing data and documents 4. Very clean drawings for stakeholders to use

Cons: Takes time to assemble and labor intensive. Once the basic drawings and completed, maintenance of site is pretty straight-forward. I suggest using a AE firm to assist in initial implementation. I did it myself and it was a bit of a steep learning curve.

Pros: ArcGIS is a powerful tool for creating maps and analyzing data. It is highly scalable and users can create beautiful cartographies for urban and city planning.

Cons: It can be a little bit complex for new users to understand the platform and its layers

Pros: EL MANEJO DE LA INFORMACIÓN GEOREFERENCIADA QUE NOS FACILITA LA INTERPRETACIÓN DE EVENTOS EN EL TERRENO DE MANERA DIGITAL.

Cons: EL PESO DE LA INFORMACIÓN MUCHAS DE LAS VECES AFECTA AL DESEMPEÑO DE LAS COMPUTADORAS QUE NO TIENEN LAS MEJORES CARACTERÍSTICAS, RETRASANDO LOS TRABAJOS.

Pros: most of what I like about it is that I always can update and modify DATA easily without the need of recreating the whole project.

Cons: I do not like much the paid features for it is so expensive for me so I can not use it and enhance my work.

Pros: Un combiné de plusieurs fonctionnalités exceptionnelles

Cons: Impossibilité d'avoir les données en temps

Pros: Très bon pour la creation et des bases de données sur la geographie

Cons: Souvent des erreurs sur certains données selon le territoire

Pros: Ease of use, the quality of product and the quality of the output.

Cons: It does take some time to learn how to use some of the specialized editing tools but if you need to make a quick map, it’s super easy.

Pros: ArcGIS is totally a professional Software. most favourite part of this software is the wide range of functions,tools,and also online support of ESRI.

Cons: too costly. the user interface is bit slow.need good configration system for good working condition.

Pros: had done project in excel but the map I needed was not very accurate, had to redo in arcGIS, had never used before. had a colleague assist since I had to learn it in a few days

Cons: user interface isnt very intuitive for someone who has never used a program like this before
