Overall Satisfaction with ArcGIS

I can't discuss in any detail how we use ArcGIS to address problems as it would compromise our competitive advantage. Suffice it to say, we are very pleased with the overall performance of the software. Let there be no doubt, we are winning business because of ESRI's ArcGIS. Other than that I am not really at liberty to say. I do hope you understand.
  • Spatial analysis.
  • Mapping.
  • Customer Support is some of the best I have ever received, ever!
  • Secondary data for use with it's products. Good as it is, but add more to it if you could, that would be great.
  • I have used ArcGIS for a long time, it does everything I need it to. In fact it has WAY more features than I will ever use.
  • Add more secondary data.
  • Demonstrate space time boxes... what are they, when are they being used.
  • Increased company revenue.
  • Highlighted patterns we would have missed had we not mapped the information.
  • Provides information for areas outside of our business as well.
I have only used ArcGIS, it's the best. And has always been, it was there from the beginning, it is GIS. However, they fucked up by not making Google Earth, before Google! If you are serious about mapping and doing spatial analytics, then you shouldn't waste your time with simpler products, just go to the GIS software that was the creator of GIS software!
Everyone knows where it should be used and where it shouldn't! It's mapping and spatial analytics software, you use it to do that. If you need to map some locational data then ArcGIS can help, if you want to understand socioeconomic characteristics around a particular location, you can do that as well. There are tons of spatial tools, from analysis to creation to joining, whatever you need, spatially, this is the program to get. There are free online add-ons as well, so you can go the cloud route if you want.
