User Testimonials
	gvSIG	MapInfo Pro
Likelihood to Recommend	OSGeo No answers on this topic	Precisely MapInfo Pro is great for creating and editing spatial data and creating both simple and complex maps. I find it easy to locate tools now that the software has transitioned to a ribbon based toolbar. I also love that you can expand on functionality in MapInfo by adding third party tools as well.

Alternatives Considered	OSGeo No answers on this topic	Precisely I find ArcGIS more comprehensive but with a more confusing interface; however this may be because I learned MapInfo first. Surfer and Global Mapper do more specific things better; but MapInfo is a good overall product for sophisticated GIS Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
