Testimonials

LocateXL

LocateXL’s geocoding and functionality is much more user-friendly than other products of a similar nature. The functionalities that stand out the most are, being able to edit, having the database linked to the application and being able to interact live with the data and make changes. I was very happy with the training, it was short, the instructor was easy to understand and I can now successfully use LocateXL!

SpatialXL

SpatialXL is cost effective compared to the other GIS providers and has great functionality. It is nice that it is an Excel add-on. There are many features that stand out for me! The training was much shorter than it would have been with other GIS products and I can understand and successfully use SpatialXL after training on it.

SpatialXL

SpatialXL has advanced math functionality unlike other BI products. In SpatialXL you can filter out data you want to focus on. The cluster function is very useful and can be used in marketing campaigns. The training was excellent, after watching the playback demo my co-workers were very impressed. The trainer was easy to understand and the length of time taken for the training was significantly shorter than training on products of a similar nature!

RouteXL

Having worked as a Business Analyst for over 7 years I have found that the training and use of Spatial Solutions provided by PrimeThought to be extremely effective in getting results I need fast. Our company has recently phased out using another less effective spatial software and the results in terms of speed and saved costs are significant. The training was painless and we were able to complete the full training line-up in less than a few weeks for the whole team.

RouteXL

As a Routing Consultant I have found the pool feature to be of high value. It has allowed me to easily access the clients current routing reality quickly no matter how many outlets they service. I also have current reality routing vs optimized routing conversations with clients without a technical delay. Different routing scenarios run quicker, and I can route multiple sales reps, trucks and depots at the same time.

SpatialXL

SpatialXL is an excellent product, the simplicity and short implementation timelines is an excellent marketing angle with all of our current and prospective clients. Most of the functionality enables non-GIS users to perform spatial queries on their tabular datasets, create maps and interactive dashboards all within the first week of use. One of the other key benefits to SpatialXL is that this application can be implemented in any market sector.

SpatialXL

SpatialXL is easy to use and navigate. It is much better than the previous product we were using. It is mind-blowing for me that you can create your own polygons and import from Excel! The training was efficient and informative, all my questions were answered during the training and after only two days of training we were done and I am successfully able to use this product!
