Concept3D knocks customer service out the park, exceptional support! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jeffrey G. | Web Designer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 06, 2023 **What do you like best about Concept3D?** The customer service at Concept 3D is stellar. Every team member has always gone above and beyond with every request; we often find more enhancements than we request; the employees are always kind-hearted, helpful, responsive, and resourceful. Even when our contact is on vacation, someone is always ready to jump right up to the plate to take requests. Of course, the Maps are stunning, too; a team of talented artists, developers, and support have created a masterpiece showcasing our lovely campus. I am always amazed how Concept 3D navigates through all of our intelligible notes, CAD drawings, and images, they all make our campus look more amazing than it does in person most of the year. January is about the only time it is so green. :-) There's been a number of enhancements added like "Dynamic Labels 2", dynamic labels were already a step above the original method. This new version allows for so much flexibility. I've added just the bldg. numbers as the abbreviations, with the full names for the details. I also distributed our labels to multiple levels, labels appear more general when zoomed out, while zooming in the labels get far more in-depth. I really appreciate being able to have labels in other categories, such as custom labels for specific events. **What do you dislike about Concept3D?** Nothing, except I have come to expect this high level of support from our other vendors. No dislikes. Our Client Success Manager, Dan and newly assigned Nikki is ALWAYS prompt to seek solutions to any issues we find, always eager to assisting in comprehending tutorials and more. They always make me feel like I am a VIP. I love that Concept 3D has zoom conferences through the year on a variety of topics, accessibility as well as their various products and product updates. These are really valuable sessions. I haven't tried it yet, although I love that Concept 3D has new office hours where you can sign up for extra help, less formal format. Our campus map is ALWAYS evolving. **What problems is Concept3D solving and how is that benefiting you?** Navigating our college campus is difficult due to major construction projects at the heart of the campus. There are very few accessible paths, even inaccessible paths, to traverse. With the ease of overlays, the campus map can be updated in minutes or updates scheduled in advance. Our campus map is so much more than a campus map, it is also a historical archive to historical photos, locations to memorials, dedication plaques, art installations, and numerous overlays for specific events on campus. **Official Response from Kasia Whiteis:** > Hello Jeffrey, thank you for taking the time to write such a wonderful review! I'm so glad to hear that Concept3D map makes it easy for your campus community to navigate the campus, especially during your construction projects. I'll be sure to share your review with Dan and the rest of our Customer Success team! ### 2. Review of Concept3D: Usability, Support, and Limitations **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** NERRISSA JANE P. | GIS Administrator, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 23, 2025 **What do you like best about Concept3D?** Concept3D is very user-friendly — no coding skills or extensive mapping knowledge are required. Its content management system is intuitive, and the front end is simple for users to navigate. The platform has a short onboarding curve, making it easy to train stakeholders. The online resources are informative, and the Concept3D team supporting UCLA has been proactive, approachable, and always ready to assist. The ability to quickly customize content and branding makes it easy to keep information accurate and relevant. It has streamlined how we share campus information, saving time and reducing technical barriers. Feedback from stakeholders has been very positive, with many noting how much easier it is to access and interact with campus maps and resources. Concept3D continues to be a reliable and innovative partner for UCLA. **What do you dislike about Concept3D?** The wayfinding functionality requires routes to be drawn manually, which becomes tedious for a campus the size of UCLA. A network dataset integration would be far more efficient, especially for handling temporary closures like construction. Bulk uploads only support point data, not polygons (construction zones) or polylines (ADA routes). Data export works for point data, but not for construction or ADA data, which means we need to maintain data in both our internal database and Concept3D separately, essentially duplicating effort. The pop-up format cannot be updated in bulk. If a change is needed for a category, each pop-up must be updated individually, which is time-consuming. **What problems is Concept3D solving and how is that benefiting you?** Concept3D is helping us shift from a centralized data management model to a more collaborative one. Previously, our team was responsible for maintaining all data layers, which was time-consuming and created bottlenecks. With Concept3D, stakeholders now take ownership of their own data, updating it directly on the map. This has led to a shared collaboration model where information is more accurate, current, and relevant. By empowering stakeholders to manage their own content, the platform reduces the maintenance burden on our team while ensuring the data stays up to date for end users. ### 3. Excellent support staff and very helpful client success managers. **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Bryan T. | Senior Web Administrator, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 08, 2022 **What do you like best about Concept3D?** Concept 3d makes making map updates very easy. In addition to doing one off map updates, they also offer bulk upload capability if you are doing a significant amount of updates. Finally, if your business or university is making significant updates during the year, they offer a maintenance package that allows for updates to processed each month. **What do you dislike about Concept3D?** There isn't really anything I dislike about Concept3D. Though there is one "gotcha," the managed updates contract only covers making changes to existing buildings, not building out new ones. That wasn't clearly spelled out in their documentation but wasn't an issue for us, just something to keep in mind as we add new buildings to our campus. **What problems is Concept3D solving and how is that benefiting you?** There are so many things that the maps system from Concept3D can do. It is very flexible and we find that the maps are used very often. We were able to build self guided walking tours that utilized the map system. The other great thing that their software helped solve was door to door walking instructions between buildings. Concept3D is focused on ensuring that their customers can do as much as possible, the latest change is their tansition to dynamic labels, and then taking the feedback from that and creating dynamic labels 2.0 which allows for stacking the labels and deciding order of display. ### 4. Concept3D Connects with Students **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Blaise M. | Project Coordinator, Digital Transformation, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 22, 2025 **What do you like best about Concept3D?** I feel that the rendering is high quality and effectively communicates the expectations of the campus architecture and landscapes. I enjoy the layout and organization of all the tools, and utilizing the backend dashboard is intuitive and thorough. **What do you dislike about Concept3D?** I wish using vectors had more flexibility and ease of use. I wish certain features were not behind paywalls, such as the use of popups. I would enjoy more opportunities to connect and collaborate with other Concept3D users, specifically others in the higher ed field. I would like more available features in regards to SSD, specifically word maps, sounding devices, and directional and location beacons for those who are blind or have low vision. I wish there was better ways to resolve node overlapping. **What problems is Concept3D solving and how is that benefiting you?** Concept3D is helping our students navigate our campus while also reducing their use of printed collateral. This benefits our mission at the Department of Digital Transformation at remaining eco-conscious and working towards a more complete digital presence. ### 5. Great with some minor improvements **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Kaitlin L. | Senior User Experience Designer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 30, 2025 **What do you like best about Concept3D?** OSU’s interactive map is a unique tool for wayfinding, transit, and campus exploration. The platform, powered by Concept3D, is easy to use, feature-rich, and provides an engaging experience for our community and prospective students. The customer support team is amazing, and quarterly check-ins ensure our ongoing success. **What do you dislike about Concept3D?** The product is strong and easy to use, but the wayfinding functionality could be improved. Routes don’t always mention nearby or parallel street names, which can make it harder for users to orient themselves. Adding customization options, like incorporating building names into directions, would provide a clearer and more user-friendly experience. **What problems is Concept3D solving and how is that benefiting you?** For OSU, the map serves as a valuable tool for showcasing the university to prospective students and employees, enhancing recruitment and engagement efforts. ### 6. Excellent Tool for a College/University Campus **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Higher Education | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 30, 2025 **What do you like best about Concept3D?** What I like most about Concept 3D is how effortlessly it lets me bring visual stories to life — no heavy lifting, no constant reliance on our web dev team. As a graphic designer, I can build and manage interactive content all on my own. We’ve invested in our own 360-camera and had a blast roaming campus, capturing panoramas and scenes. Concept 3D makes plugging those into the platform a breeze. It’s truly plug-and-play — drop in 360° photos or videos, hotspots, text, overlays — whatever you want — and it just works. Some of my favorite things: • The user interface (CMS/editor) is intuitive — I don’t have to wait on developer help to make edits. • I can embed hotspots in map stops — with photos, video or descriptive text — to make each location feel immersive. • The customization options are robust: layering, branding, overlays, toggling visibility. • It’s mobile- and responsive-ready, so users exploring on phones or tablets get the full experience. In short: Concept 3D gives me creative control with power and flexibility, letting me focus on design and storytelling instead of technical hurdles. **What do you dislike about Concept3D?** I wish Concept 3D was more budget-friendly for smaller institutions. While it offers excellent visuals and engaging interactive features, the costs — especially for updates or additional features — can feel high relative to the benefits for campuses with limited resources. **What problems is Concept3D solving and how is that benefiting you?** Concept 3D helps solve the challenge of giving students an immersive campus experience when they can’t visit in person. It allows students who live far away to explore campus virtually, and it gives prospective students a real sense of our campus environment right from the start of their search. This early exposure helps them connect with our community and envision themselves here, making the recruitment process more engaging and effective. ### 7. Our Concept3D Interactive Map has made be love maps again! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Chris N. | Director of Web Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 01, 2024 **What do you like best about Concept3D?** I had been maintaining static graphical maps of our campus for many years and everything was always behind. Offices would keep stacks of printed PDF maps for years with old info and outdated content was always being chased down. We needed a solution that allowed everything to be maintained in one location, that offered wayfinding, location markers, and could be a one stop shop for map related content. We contacted Concept3D and I've fell in love with maps all over again. The software is super easy to use and continually saves us countless hours of work. Parking services wants to document some temporary parking for an event, done. Admissions needs a repeating special event to highlight and campus buildings and tour info, done. Wayfinding across campus using wheelchair accessible paths, done. Our static map couldn't tell us anything about user engagement. I check our analytics daily to see what areas of the map are being used and that helps us understand the needs of our audience. Customer support is top notch and I've never had anything but immediate results and a welcoming, positive interaction with every staff member with whom I communicated. I use our map CMS daily to add new items and tweak content - I used to dread documenting map changes, but Concept3D makes map editing fun and super easy. We also use their Tour platform to give campus tours of our facilities. Dropping 360 panoramas or videos into the interface is so easy and satisfying. I made a new tour last week in just a few minutes and the reviews have been wonderful. It helps us show our best attributes in an easy and good looking platform. It's fun to use as well. **What do you dislike about Concept3D?** There is nothing that I don't love about Concept3D. **What problems is Concept3D solving and how is that benefiting you?** We no longer have a bottleneck on map updates or outdated printed maps. I can implement vast updates for our entire campus in a matter of minutes and everyone can instantly see the changes. I save many hours of work every month. ### 8. Great product, outstanding support **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** LU P. | AVP, Communications, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 26, 2025 **What do you like best about Concept3D?** As a small team, Concept 3D has made our map creation and continued management easy. Their support team is outstanding, whether that's answering a quick email with helpful how-to information, or taking a deeper dive into optimizing functionality. We have expanded the ways in which we use our campus map across campus and over many events. **What do you dislike about Concept3D?** Would love to have an audible feature for the point-to-point directions as an additional accessibility feature **What problems is Concept3D solving and how is that benefiting you?** Our campus map was previously a PDF which was time-intensive to update. Now, we can make changes anytime we need. ### 9. Personal, Professional, and Quick **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Bruce D. | Web Editor, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 22, 2025 **What do you like best about Concept3D?** The people there are great. I feel they really care about the experience of not only me as a site manager, but also the user's experience. The features of the software are more than we currently use, but we're looking to make more use of it! **What do you dislike about Concept3D?** There's definitely a learning curve. Their help articles can sometimes be too general when you have specific questions. **What problems is Concept3D solving and how is that benefiting you?** Mainly assisting visitors to our campus who are not familiar with the buildings or parking options. Happy visitors who have less to complain about make everyone happy! ### 10. Great maps and easy edits **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Higher Education | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 30, 2025 **What do you like best about Concept3D?** I really appreciate their newly released dynamic labels, which let us manually update building titles without needing to submit revisions for each one. Their response time is excellent whenever I reach out, and they stay in regular contact with us. The links they provide are easy to add to our website, so we don’t have to worry about tours or people getting lost. They handled most of the implementation work, making the process very smooth. We use the system all the time. **What do you dislike about Concept3D?** Their map images are expensive to update, and there are essentially no revisions included in the initial cost. Given the ongoing expenses, it would be more reasonable if they offered a set number of revisions each year. **What problems is Concept3D solving and how is that benefiting you?** The tours make it easy to find things around our campus. ## Concept3D Discussions - [What is the best way to integrate VR with Concept 3d?
