Great GIS software, plus programming possibility using ArcPy
What do you like best about the product?
The graphical interface of ArcGis is user friendly. There are many functions implemented in the software, which are helpful for a lot of fields. I am a Cartographer in the background and I personally like the design interface and the symbols database.
What do you dislike about the product?
The software has issues while handling a lot of data and it usually crashes (at least the version that I use). So I prefer to do processing of big data volumes in other environment.
I would like to have more statistical methods introduced in ArcGis, I think they might be useful.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am working in Spatial Crime Analysis for the present time. I use ArcGis for density analysis, regression models, different calculations, mapping and design.
In the past I worked in Remote Sensing and I used ArcGis for mapping satellite imagery.

ArcGIS Experience
What do you like best about the product?
ArcGIS is users friendly. You can analyze data easily and make beautiful maps and reports.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have no dislike with this Software .You get frequently updates if there are any bugs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm in the forest industry and with ArcGIS we can work towards sustainable forestry. We analyze which tree to cut and how to plan the roads and where not to go.
ArcGIS, used by many for a reason
What do you like best about the product?
Esri software always has a good help database, allowing newer users to learn how to perform functions and get answers quickly. For newer users, the help function and search are your friends. You can do basically anything with ArcGIS. There are so many field for which this software is useful. You can upload a lot of data and produce clean, professional maps. Symbology is easy to work with and there are many options.
What do you dislike about the product?
The more information you add into one project the slower the software tends to work, which occasionally causes crashes in the product. Sometimes errors occur because you missed a step in the data processing, the software provides you with information that says an error occurred, but sometimes the error messages are vague.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have used this software to look at bathymetric data. Using polygons to average GIS points to see whats going on temporally, erosion? deposition? etc. Also, I have used ArcGIS to observe historical site data.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The older or slower the computer you have the slower the software runs. Get a fast operating computer! Also, save often! You don't want to lose work because it crashed.
The current standard for geospatial analysis.
What do you like best about the product?
ArcGIS is undeniably powerful. There's so much going on behind the scenes that even after years of working with it, I find new tools that sometimes come in handy. I also like that the user community is so active, and so it's easy to find documentation online.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface is clunky and slow. All of this adds up to wasted time, but more importantly, it leads to headaches for the user.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
One recent example: I was able to conveniently separate the data I needed from the very large dataset they were provided in using spatial joins.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take the time to learn the software, but also consider learning some of the open source alternatives. Quite frankly, Esri's offering is expensive and so not for everyone.
Great GIS mapping tool
What do you like best about the product?
Extensive plugins, easy python integration, toolsets that are able to map out vast data sets and provide professional looking printed maps and web apps. ArcGIS also provides valuable data analyses tools that allow for valuable assessments across many disciplines including population dynamics, hazard control and geology.,
What do you dislike about the product?
a clunky interface will crash often, so save as often as possible.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Geologic mapping, site management for paleontological digs, grain analyses of petrographic thin sections.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
ESRI press tutorials are a must when learning this product, also be sure to save often.
Versatile software package
What do you like best about the product?
I've been using ESRI software for 15 years. I like that between version to version there aren't drastic changes that cause the user to relearn where tools are.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are times when cloud data is down and there is no way to know when it will be restored. My normal.mxt file seems to have issues from time to time requiring several restarts.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using ESRI products like Collector and Survey123 to more efficiently collect field data.
Making maps, data collection, analysis systematic examination and evaluation of data or information.
What do you like best about the product?
The flexibility of software comparison with AutoCAD Map 3D I worked in past.
What do you dislike about the product?
Need to study everyday and... I like it. Not sure what I dislike so far. Ha-Ha.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Support by gathering data to many departments in the City - Water, Wastewater, Economic, Fire, Police and all other Departments with their requests.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely! I would recommend.
Cumbersome
What do you like best about the product?
Data integration and exploration in my field
What do you dislike about the product?
Too technical and not user friendly. I am the only one in my staff to use it
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Strategic organizing.
ArcGIS Review
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best is that you can visualize certain pinpoints on a map.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I dislike is that it takes a lot of training to use this software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are mapping out places on a map where we have done Environmental Health Investigations.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
ArcGIS is especially useful during presentations when you are trying to put together a time and a place in terms of environmental assessments.
Good GIS software, but requires some training
What do you like best about the product?
ArcGIS is really the industry standard, but to achieve anything beyond really basic functionality, you really need to get some training or teach yourself using a good reference book. Honestly to even understand the full potential of ArcGIS, you need some guidance and training.
What do you dislike about the product?
The software is very resource heavy - even on a very new computer with a very good processor and decent memory capacity, the software can lag a bit.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For any real mapping needs, you need ArcGIS. Visually illustrating anything geographically arranged or even higher functions of data analysis only possible when combined with other geographically projected datasets.
