Budget friendly option for Geospatial professionals plus easy to use tools for other professionals in the field of Environment or planning for their mapping work. Add on's are another useful feature, recently used and add on for adding surveys for data point collection of reviewing of data points, many developers are able to make add on plugins for QGIS. > > **Cons**: There can arise issues such as lag or time taken for some geoprocessing tools, installation loading times, time taken for bulk tasks, in general using ArcGIS is more easier and better. Tool bar graphics can be out of date. > > IT has most features on it for GeoSpatial use along with added Geoprocessing tools and plugins, surprisingly found it a first choice for maybe handling with rasters imagery for simpler work. QGIS does everything I need for professional mapping \& analysis. The software is updated on time and regularly. easily connectable to other applications even including hardware GPS devices through plugins and has an easy integration with Excel Databases and supports most Excel Database formats. User Friendly GIS option. ----- ### "A fantastic open source replacement for expensive proprietary solutions" — 5.0/5 > **Paolo** | *30 October 2019* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: If you need a GIS Desktop tool, QGIS is the way to go. It is rich of features, open source, and easily customizable using Python. And has a vibrant community\! > > **Cons**: I like everything from this fantastic software ----- ### "Great Free Application" — 3.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *26 March 2020* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: I really like the fact that GQIS is free and open source. It gives geographic information system access to everyone and provides introductory knowledge to users in any field. The program is very useful for simple mapping tasks and analysis. > > **Cons**: I wish that the program had more analysis options and a modern user interface but I understand that the program is free and that those things cost a lot to produce. ----- ### "The software you need to get started with GIS" — 5.0/5 > **Omar** | *26 November 2021* | Environmental Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is the best software for beginners in Geographic Information Systems. It has a dynamic and intuitive interface. Very easy to use and teach students. It is compatible with all operating systems Everyone knows or has ever worked with this tool, and it is impossible to get bored if you love maps\! > > **Cons**: It has very few points against it, maybe it takes a little while to process heavy images and it has many updates that sometimes confuse me. ----- ### "Qgis- One of the best GIS softwares" — 4.0/5 > **Pedro** | *29 July 2021* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: QGgis is an open-source software, i like its easy and fast workflows, it is really easy to modify layer properties, attributes and other features, and i prefer it because it is just as good as other GIS softwares, but QGis is free. Really easy to use and learn, and you can find a lot of information about this software in youtube. > > **Cons**: something I don't like is that sometimes the application closes and does not have recovered files, so you have to start again. > > I use this software for my university career (architecture), I use for the analysis of terrain, and the nearby environment, where I can see a lot of information, For example, bus lines, rivers, land, electric lines for drinking water, etc. I really like this software as it is very easy to use for beginners. ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.co.nz/software/2068291/qgis?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.co.nz/software/2068291/qgis) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | ----- ## Structured Data
