[mapguide-users] Migration Autodesk to Esri

[Hans Milling]

We changed to Open Source a few years ago. We had no issues changing. Getting
rid of all the license issues were the best (vierual servers that change MAC
address were a nightmare). ArcGIS has a lot of limitations in the layer
rules and some other stuff compared to MapGuide. Changing from MapGuide to
ArcGIS is a step back if you ask me.
We have made a tool to Migrate ArcGIS solutions to MapGuide to assist our
clients, who have ArcGIS. The tool take all data and setup (layer themes
etc.) from Arc into MapGuide+MSSQL server setup, but could just as easily
convert to PostGIS or Oracle databases with a few tweaks.

Best Regards
