GIS and mapping teams
If you are coming from ArcGIS, QGIS, or a GIS-heavy stack, start with the comparisons that speak most clearly to geometry capture, export, and ecosystem dependency.
Broader field operations platforms
If you are comparing wider platforms for forms, tasks, assets, and mobile teams, this is usually the best place to start.
Inspection and asset-heavy workflows
If your buying process is more about inspections, evidence, auditability, and corrective follow-up, start with this group.
Why Crews Switch to Mapalyze — and Cut Costs 50%+
Before
"We were paying per device. Every time we bought a new tablet the bill went up. No one could tell me what we'd owe next quarter."
With Mapalyze
One price per user. Use it on your phone, tablet, and laptop. The bill is the same every month.
Before
"Our old app's offline mode crashed mid-inspection. 6 hours of work, gone. My crew had to drive back out the next morning."
With Mapalyze
Offline isn't a mode — it's the default. Data saves to the device first. No connection needed, no data lost.
Before
"We needed Shapefile exports for our GIS team. The vendor said that required an enterprise upgrade — $4K more a year."
With Mapalyze
GeoJSON and Shapefile export on every paid plan. Opens directly in QGIS and ArcGIS. No upgrade required.
Before
"Uploading 53 site photos took 20 minutes and froze the entire app. You couldn't do anything else until it finished."
With Mapalyze
Photos upload in the background while your crew keeps collecting. No freezing, no waiting, no lost time.
