GRASS Reviews & Product Details

As a civil engineer my favorite thing about grass is that it is found as a freeware and is quite easy to install and has great support with regards to using it.

For me, grass is a tool that is quite easy to use and does not require a lot off training although some people may argue that the learning curve is quite steep.

As a gis tool it has great features that I use for the analysis and also integrates exceptionally with other analysis tools.

I love also that I can use grass to convert my GPS data to CVS format or shape-files for use in other tools like arcgis.

Overall, grass is a very vital and crucial tool in my line of work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While I mentioned its an easy tool to use the learning curve for most is quite steep and training anyone on its use is not the easiest thing to do.

Also while its a powerful tool it is not as powerful and advanced with regards to geo-database as the arcgis counterpart. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What i love about grass is that its a very simple tool to implement and use. The current version is quite stable and I love that the developers are keeping it current and up-to date with so many features and tools that come in handy during data analysis. It works so good with other analysis tools and I love that I can easily transfer images from google earth pro onto grass for manipulation. It functions great and doesn't glitch and the support is great with tons of information online that helps me use it even more easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Only that installation or implementation was not exactly as straightforward as I had hoped but I love that it has tons of plugins that are so important during gis data analysis and manipulation and that for me gives it an edge over arcgis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Grass is not as feature rich or as powerful as tools like arc gis.

However one thing I love about it over Arcgis is that the price is quite reasonable and also it integrates very well with other tools and software compared to its counterpart. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While it's a great tool it is not usually the simplest tool to learn and the curve for learning is steep. Besides that I feel that it's a great tool that integrates so well with other tools and works great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Implementing grass is quite simple and although it has a steep learning curve its quite fun to use. I have used grass for simple geospatial analysis and simple mapping. It has great tools and intuitive features to perform all required analysis and they function incredibly. I also love that that it has plenty of other pluggins that help perform any kind of analysis exhaustively on maps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The learning curve is steep but after learning the tool its very fun to use it.

Grass is also not as advanced and powerful and it also does not store as much data as arcgis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that it is an open source software that is used for the evaluation and analysis of geospatial data, image processing, production of graphics and maps, spatial modeling and visualization.

is an easy to use program that offers multiple options for the management of geographic information for the planning and execution of projects, plans, and programs.

I like that it contains specialized tools for the production of graphics and maps that facilitate the presentation of results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

is a software that does not have the capacity and quality of presentation of the information when compared with argis, I do not like much for the presentation of very important information because the images, maps and graphics are few innovators and creatives, reason that I use it for the planning of specific, temporary and few important projects.

Interface can be more readable, but we don't have tragedy.
