Interactive web maps to present our efforts on getting rid of explosive remnants of war.
Interactive web maps to present our efforts on getting rid of explosive remnants of war.
Pros
Powerful data visualizations and analysis and with a few click you are up and running. The styling, analysis, widgets and programming interface extend the capabilities of what you can do with the platform.
Cons
More like suggestions than cons: the widgets need to support more data filter types such as drop downs and calendar date pick up fields and filters; also data exports to different formats.

Thank you Carto, Thank you executive
Reviewed on 03/10/2019
Pros
I really enjoyed playing with this tool. I created 2-3 maps during my session with Carto in link with my job. I was a complete neophyte at 1st but with the help of the customer service and executive he helped me step by step to improve and make my maps even better.
Cons
Really hard to use when you have no knowledge. Wish I entered in contact with [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] earlier in my trial I would have had more time.

Carto makes web based GIS and interactive web mapping a breeze
Reviewed on 30/08/2017
Pros
Drag & drop GIS data integration, robust APIs, their dashboard makes learning and using SQL easy, superb support staff & team.

The new Builder interface takes some getting used to, but is super powerful once you learn it, and Carto has plenty of tutorials to help you get started.

Fantastic Maps!
Fantastic Maps!
Pros
I really like that the result looks very professional and it is very easy to do chloropleth maps. You can customise the maps and info windows a lot.
Cons
I have not used the statistical functionalities of the software yet. I would like to make an animated map (torque map) but this seems to be a bit more complicated because data needs to be formatted specifically. Though Carto is great and I can do most of the things I need to do!
