I don't either, but you may want to contact <br>
him to get his opinion.<br>
<br>
QGIS is free, so that is a positive. It is also <br>
very, very powerful. It has a very fast development <br>
cycle, which will be both good and bad for you <br>
in different ways. It can be self-taught, but <br>
you may not have the time for that. If not, <br>
you should check into training options before you <br>
decide.<br>
<br>
If your users need very basic GIS functions and nothing <br>
more, it might be better to use a simpler software, like <br>
those supplied by Delorme or others, instead of teaching <br>
everybody QGIS.<br>

We currently use XMap 7 pro and are looking for a replacement package. I
need some feedback to see if QGIS is a good replacement. We also need in
the new package the ability to import the old projects from XMap 7 pro
which does not have an export option except txt format. We are a forestry
based company.
Any comments are welcome.
