Most Helpful Favorable Review
Verified User in Management Consulting
The data input is easy to plug in and analyze
Most Helpful Critical Review
Verified User in Real Estate
It is confusing to create a project and then to keep project information in the proper place. It is also confusing to modify the infographic template.
ArcGIS Pro
Most Helpful Favorable Review
Verified User in Utilities
Pro has become the central hub for data at our office. We use it to see both geodatabases that are hosted online as well as seeing data collected through collecter
Most Helpful Critical Review
Verified User in Government Administration
Their attempt to improve the UI is a total fail. The adage "if it's not broke, don't fix it" perfectly applies. The old ArcGIS Desktop was so good. The new product is infuriating. Everyone who uses it feels like they're starting over again.
