**Reviewed Date:** August 04, 2022

**What do you like best about Ginkgo?**

The platform Ginkgo is building with early adopters like us is revolutionizing how we access and analyze data about our community. It allows us to easily gather data for local stakeholders, key partners, and internal uses. With the downloadable files and portals that businesses are able to update themselves, we are better equipped to accomplish shared goals and serve our community.

We are now able to keep track of what businesses are coming and going in our district, and provide up to date files for contact information, changing hours, and more.

  ### 2. Ginkgo Changed How Our Small Organization Handled Data and Mapping

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Civic & Social Organization | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 20, 2022

**What do you like best about Ginkgo?**

Ginkgo has revolutionized how our BID analyzes and presents our district’s data and property contacts. The platform has helped bring us into the 21st  Century. We are a small team with limited resources and a toolkit like  Ginkgo saves our employees valuable time and allows us to demonstrate to our board and community the impact of our organization. Ginkgo puts us on an equal playing field in terms of data analysis with organizations that have larger capacities. It is exciting to be part of the evolution of this new product  whose potential continues to expand.

Ginkgo is a customer-focused company.  No dislikes.

We have been a customer of Ginkgo since the beginning.  They continually made changes to meet clients' needs.  The product is at a very solid place right now.

  ### 3. Keep your local records in one place

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Madeleine L. | Graduate Student in Urban Planning, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 18, 2022

**What do you like best about Ginkgo?**

Ginkgo is a very easy-to-use and intuitive tool--I liked being able to easily pull up records, run reports, and train colleagues on using the program. I used it to spatialize local businesses, a public art project, and new developments in the neighborhood.

**What do you dislike about Ginkgo?**

It was sometimes tricky to keep data up to date--I edited records in batches by downloading csvs but sometimes our record lists were so long that even this became cumbersome.

**What problems is Ginkgo solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Ginkgo helped me visualize a lot of the local trends that I understood anecdotally. It was helpful to be able to make our own data sets and easily embed them online for others to see and explore!

  ### 4. Amazing mapping platform!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Adriana A. | Executive Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 04, 2022

**What do you like best about Ginkgo?**

Ginkgo pulls various data sources for easy overlay and analysis. We can assess financials, sales, location, business types, and more.

**What do you dislike about Ginkgo?**

Haven't found one yet! We've been on the platform for over a year and truly depend on it for all of our mapping needs.

**What problems is Ginkgo solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It's allowing us to centralize all of our corridor data into one platform. It also interfaces with our Salesforce platform which makes data use and analysis even easier.

  ### 5. Gingko is a streamlined and user friendly tool with great data sources for mapping.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Non-Profit Organization Management | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 04, 2022

**What do you like best about Ginkgo?**

Gingko provides a wide range of data sources that makes mapping streetscape assets simple and allows for new databases to be made easily. GIngko provides excellent customer service.

**What do you dislike about Ginkgo?**

The only thing I dislike about Gingko is the slow refresh rate when creating new data points on the mapping tool.

**What problems is Ginkgo solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It saves time by providing datasets of publicly owned streetscape assets within our district and allows us to map within custom boundaries.
