Comparing MapVision and Prospex
To help you find the best geodata solution to meet your needs we have prepared this side-by-side comparison table of Prospex, our desktop Geographic Information System (GIS) with MapVision our online interactive mapping system. As you will see below, Prospex offers everything you would expect from a GIS and is ideal for in-depth location analysis, territory management and scheduling. MapVision offers some of the core functions of a GIS but focuses more on an intuitive interface and sharing tools to allow for greater online collaboration and sharing of geographic data.
If you are still unsure as to which solution is for you, or would prefer us to undertake a one-off mapping project for you, please do get in touch
