Maptitude Reviews in June 2026: User Ratings, Pros & Cons

Top Quality Spatial Analysis Software! Can't find anything similar at the price.

What do you like best? I have used Maptitude over 15 years and in numerous different countries. Maptitude is very easy to learn, and is designed for USERS - so users can do numerous spatial analysis modeling, and of course create great looking maps. What do you dislike? Although they have extremely great data sets for numerous countries, such as USA, Australia, etc, they don't have any data sets for my country of Fiji.. But, none of the GIS companies do. The USA dataset they provide with ...

Great For Automation!

What do you like best? At my company we're pretty heavy into automation. Maptitude offers very user friendly automation of maps. We have clients that need maps created for over 300 stores. Imagine having to manually create 300+ maps. Maptitude can generate those maps in about 20 minutes. What do you dislike? At this point I haven't found anything that I really dislike. Maybe as I dive deeper with other projects I will find something. I've used several other mapping products over the years ...

Great GIS, Valuable Replacement for Microsoft MapPoint

What do you like best? Basic geographic analysis capabilities, it's a lot of functionality for the price and not too difficult to learn. What do you dislike? Speed at which map redraws, even on a faster computer. May be an issue with all geographic systems (GIS and laptop graphics cards. Recommendations to others considering the product This is a great replacement for Microsoft MapPoint, which was sun-setted in 2014 I believe. It's got far more features than MapPoint did; however it also ...

My initial take on Maptitude 2016.

As a user of Maptitute for the past 5 years, I can say that I am continually impressed at the improvements that have been made with each iteration of the software. I use the software primarily for business/retail applications, institutional research, and in transportation geography (logistics) analyses. This past weekend, I had the opportunity to install Maptitute 2016 (64 bit architecture). Previous installations of Maptitude on my computer have used the 32 bit architecture. While the ...

Quite the best mapping experience I had.

What do you like best? I like how fast it is, I like the fact that is not online (compared to some other software and I like how deep you can go with the software. What do you dislike? Well, in my case I didn't have all the catalogs, only the Canadian one. Therefore I wish I had all of them. Nonetheless, I think what I dislike is the support that I had when I tried to reach out to Caliper through their Facebook account. I have to admit that once I sent an e-mail to sales, I got a reply ...

Powerful demographic analysis tool

Maptitude strength is it's flexibility to combined multiple layers of information into an easy to presentable format. The tool we built to evaluate market viability has been useful in all phases of evaluation. First pass getting overall market demographics is quick, second loading our own competitor data base to see competitive landscape is a quick three step process. And finally, once real estate has locations to check out, importing those locations along with a city's public ...

Spatial analytics: the next big thing in big data

What do you like best? Maptitude offers the best value for money. It costs half as much as the other software and packs as much, if not more, functionality. What do you dislike? It can have a more modern looking user interface. Recommendations to others considering the product If you are starting off in GIS and spatial analytics, Maptitude offers the best functionality and support at an affordable price. Put simply, it offers the highest return on investment for a GIS platform. What ...

Very powerful compared to MapPoint

What do you like best? Maptitude is a full GIS which has been replacing Microsoft's discontinued MapPoint product. Compared to MapPoint it is much more powerful, allowing for more 'out of the box' analysis, richer data, and a more powerful API that exposes more 'under the hood' functionality - ideal for custom programming solutions. The 2016 version of Maptitude adds some territory functionality. This isn't an area I use, but the new implementation fixes the biggest problems with ...

Maptitude - full GIS that everyone can afford

What do you like best? Includes the GIS functionality that most business users need - Data entry Spatially tag data Spatial data manipulation Spatial visualization Maptitude can directly read ESRI SHP files and other popular GIS formats, and inter-operate between the layers while in their native formats I use both Maptitude by Caliper.com and ArcMap by ESRI.com Both are excellent. See my examples at my Channel http://www.youtube.com/grantthrall What do you dislike? I ...
