Bing Maps is well suited for preplanning loads, specifically in regards to checking the bird's eye and aerial view to see if the facility has enough area or room for overnight parking. And if overnight parking is available, what number of restaurants are within walking distance from the business in the area.

For what my team uses GeoSurf for, it is well suited for jumping from country to country to quality control content placements very quickly. For the most part it is reliable, efficient and fast, changing countries and loading content instantly. Our company uses it for a fairly specific task on only our company website, but for what we use it for, it is a very powerful tool.

  • It has been very difficult to set up GeoSurf for a device like an Xbox or Playstation, requiring significant experimentation and multiple devices daisy-chained and we needed to write detailed integration guides for testers. Device-specific solutions or guides would help tremendously.

Home Depot and Lowes are both in the same category and offer great products and services but each have something a little different the other doesn't offer or have. Likewise, Bing Maps is in the same category as Google Maps but offers a little something slightly different in the features.

Geosurf blows them out of the water in terms of features and liability. Freedom offers a cheaper cost but when you are working for a big company it is time to bring out the big guns and that is where GeoSurf comes in. Reliable is an understatement for sure.
