[Qgis-user] QGIS and ArcGIS Pro

[Randal Hale]

I think it would be easier to argue (and I haven't used it....yet) 
ArcGISPro is a throw back to the Arcview 3.x series. Multiple layouts in 
one session, promoted as "GIS for managers", etc.

There are some similarities between Pro and QGIS - I think QGIS is more 
comparable to ArcDesktop. With development ending on Desktop (yeah I 
said it) I think QGIS is poised to pick up the unhappy market of people 
who don't want a desktop application tied to an online application 
(arcgisonline). Desktop GIS still has a place in the world. I think QGIS 
could in theory start to make a bigger impact than it has been. Of 
course you have the entire ESRI ecosystem of software to deal with...but 
that's another story.
