Truly astounded at how much easier, more capable, and performant it is vs QGIS. Typically you'd expect a desktop app like QGIS to perform better than a cloud-based offering, however the opposite is true with Scribble Maps. It easily handled tasks that crash QGIS!

Pros

Easy of use, performance, ability to handle tasks that crash QGIS!

Cons

This could be a positive for some, but the Photoshop-like UI took a bit of getting used to for me.

Response from 52 Stairs Studio

Really good, I've used frequently for a long time. It helps me plan out boundaries for businesses which is my primary use of it. My favorite feature is letting lines link up which makes it easier to draw prefectly on a map.

Pros

Very user friendly, the most accessible software to design and draw on maps. I also like being able to consult maps from my phone and laptop

Cons

The icons are ugly and could be better. There needs to be more detail on the maps. I sometimes have to have Google maps open on another tab to reference important locations such as train stations that aren't marked.

Response from 52 Stairs Studio

Thank you, Rahul, for your review! We're glad you find Scribble Maps user-friendly and accessible for designing and drawing on maps. We appreciate your feedback about the icons and level of detail on the maps.

Regarding the icons, you actually have the flexibility to upload your own images and turn them into icons. I have attached a help document that provides more information on how to do this: https://help.scribblemaps.com/hc/en-us/articles/4407959500429-Upload-a-custom-marker

To add more detail to the maps, you can utilize the stylized map option, which allows you to incorporate additional points of interest similar to Google Maps. I have also attached a document with more information on this feature: https://help.scribblemaps.com/hc/en-us/articles/360048923711-Custom-Styling-Maps

We appreciate your suggestions for future improvements, and we value your continued use of Scribble Maps for planning boundaries for businesses. The feature of linking lines has been helpful to you, and we're grateful for your support.
