It provides the user an array of features like work with data from SQL, OBDC or Postgres and many other sources. Along with attributes and information can be added to the shapefiles.

Also with the abundance of formats compatibility, the cross platform work is easier to integrate. Few frequently used are raster, shapefiles, grid, DEM, tables etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Interface & API needs serious upgrades, even for seasoned users.

E.g. every single element added to the workspace appears separately, so if one wants to edit an attribute table and watch the shapefile, we need to switch among a square to another to see the results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What i really liked about SAGA GIS is that it provides an easily accessible user interface with many viewing options and it can be used together with other GIS programs such as kosmos to obtain better vector and map data with the capacity to produce. It offers a wide, growing set of geoscientific methods. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its takes time because when we start to use this software we have to do a lot like we have to fill so many forms before using it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I liked that our firm no longer had to keep paper copy folders- for the most part. There were very few likes that I had about the software Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When we first got the software- we were glad to be helping the environment (in a sense) however over time we realized that this software wasnt ideal.. We still had to keep the files. It great to have paper copies.. but there was no point in the software, other than to use it as a reminder system. We eventually swithced over to Needles. The software would slow down the computers- causing them to freeze. sometimes we lost data. We still kept what was in SAGA- in SAGA--- but when going back for records-- it was very difficult.

allows to obtain updated geographic information, has a graphic user interface that allows visualizations in real time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is expensive since it was developed mainly for scientific projects Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Maybe improve the interface a bit. That interface could be better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SAGA is an open source tool, designed to load vector objects or trace points, lines, polygons and manipulate them by simple or complex analysis methods, these can be liquid flow simulations, motivated by rain, ocean currents, evaporation and others. Other models that can be cited as the simulation of particle erosion, maximum entropy, the management of photogrammetric composition of remote sensing images

SAGA includes within its models, the concepts developed by Morgan, Finney, Duzant, Burrough, Hugget, among other professionals dedicated to quantitative geography.

SAGA saves equipment resources focusing its effort on data processing and not on visualization with a high level of aesthetics, allows QGIS to be used as a visualizer of the results of the processes and allows the user the possibility of obtaining a product . Graphic printing of higher quality.

SAGA can be compared with Esri Arc ToolBOX, since it presents the same performance with very similar results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is a bit cumbersome to show the representations of the obtained processes, the creation of the print design and other attributes of a final map; I think that to have a print quality map, the results are better handled with other compatible software such as QGIS or GVSIG, which have developed more those processes.

I consider that it is necessary to devote a little more to the development of the data loading interface, explanation of the method and other things that contribute to the learning of new users Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SAGA GIS is free software with a lot of tools.

I can use a lot of data format.

This is a good tool to make NMT.

You can analyze areal and satellite picture. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When you use this software you must fill in a lots of form.

SAGA GIS use too much window. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's functional and useful (and open source!) GIS software. I find it intuitive and fairly well supported. I appreciate SAGA's ability to interface with other open source software including R, and it is a major part of my goal to use mostly open source software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Online 3rd party support (via message boards, tutorials etc.) not as good as ArcGIS, and Google Earth Engine is quickly replacing everything as the best GIS software (plus it's free). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
