Use Cases and Deployment Scope
I use Bing Maps in several ways mostly as the aerial view to get a good look at the facilities and warehouses company drivers pick up and deliver to. This helps identify any obstacles in the roadways, whether or not the vehicle is traveling through residential areas or obstructions in the facility.
Pros and Cons
  • Close ups on the street 360 is very clear
  • The to and from for directions is very accurate
  • The features are very user-friendly
  • Would like to see integration of more commercial vehicle features
  • A feature that gives toll prices in advance would be helpful
  • Weather alerts would be a good feature to include
Likelihood to Recommend
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.
Most Important Features
  • Street maps
  • Aerial view
Return on Investment
  • Bing Maps helps prevent going in the wrong direction and has saved hundreds of dollars in towing expenses
  • Bing Maps allows drivers to get as close as possible to customers by seeing what areas can accommodate them in advance
  • Bing Maps cuts travels time and fatigue as well as increases efficiency
Alternatives Considered
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.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Bing Maps is used for locating of sites for the various projects we work on. It is also used to obtain directions and the distance to travel to these sites across Africa. Using the aerial background backdrop and street views allow us to determine the layout of the site and and characteristics of the terrain and surrounding services, and what the land is like in a preliminary state before we go to the actual site.
Pros and Cons
  • provides clear directions
  • street views allow preliminary identification of site layout and surrounding services
  • clear background aerial imagery
  • include more features
  • make it compatible with other data that can be imported
Likelihood to Recommend
Bing Maps gives access to clear background aerial imagery. The imagery and street views are quite up to date which helps quite a bit. There should, however, be more features included on Bing Maps.
Most Important Features
  • Aerial background imagery
  • Directions
  • Street Views
  • Preliminary map layouts
Return on Investment
  • Makes preliminary identification of sites easy
  • Quick preliminary site layouts
  • Quick and easy to obtain directions
Alternatives Considered
These products are very similar in nature. We do alternate between these software but as of recent Bing Maps has been used more often. The imagery is good and the product is easy to use.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
I use Bing Maps to manage locations for our business addresses at Streitwise. This entails multiple locations we own and placing the property locations on the map for users that are visiting the property can see. This helps Bing users view our locations we own when traveling to the properties.
Pros and Cons
  • Location management
  • Navigation for end users
  • UX
  • Needs to be easier to claim businesses that don't have addresses we can access with mail
  • Easier experience managing multiple properties
  • More collaborative abilities with property managers
Likelihood to Recommend
Bing Maps is essential for local SEO management and on-site marketing for those that own or manage property locations. This greatly enhances local marketers at the hyperlocal level manage their businesses more effectively and help customers find the business locations when using Bing Maps or Bings Search. This also helps those that have shifting business hours.
Most Important Features
  • Managing locations
  • Hyperlocal SEO
  • Communicating business information to map users
Return on Investment
  • More customers have seen our locations on Maps
  • Customers have called the phone numbers on our Maps pages
  • Bing Search has picked up on Bing Maps changes
Alternatives Considered
Bings Maps is very similar to Google Maps. I like Bing Maps' 3d mapping ability over Google Maps and their Street View is just as good. I do like how Bing Maps attempts to communicate with us about upcoming holidays so that we can communicate business closures to end user customers or visitors.
