“The website was easy to use, it was easy to find and order the map I needed however when it arrived, the site plan was not accurate which was alarming. I was able to correct it but had expected it to be accurate.”

“Everything worked ok, but there is no scale bar on the plan, otherwise I would have given 4 stars (I only give 5 for exceptional service).”

“Trying to highlight a boundary that is not simple and square is a nightmare. I had to try about six times as joining the link points was too sensitive and ended up with triangles all over the map.!! Grrrrr! The deleting them was again not as simple as you think for one time users. PLEASE Allow a large zoom to enable this easier.”

“The end product is fine getting there was a like a nightmare, the drawing tools offered to outline your plot and buildings can only be described as abysmal.”

“Easy to purchase without too much unnecessary “registration” which always irritates. The quality is fine for most purposes but when printed out on A4 the scale is not exactly 1:500 which is what I wanted. You can get round this by using the scale printed on the map, but since A4 is a standard size I would have thought it should be relatively easy to get the scale much more accurate.”

“I was disappointed that only 2 scales were available. Also, the scale I chose (1:1259) did not show all the area I needed. When I printed out the map it was confined to a square in the middle of an A4 sheet leaving a large area of white paper, it would have been helpful if the map covered a larger area to show landmarks such as the street. The area I wanted covered could easily have been accommodated on an A4 sheet. I spent a lot of time trying to copy the map to another format, Word refused to align the map even with all margins removed. Adobe Photoshop had a problem printing the map to the correct size, I even tried Excel. Finally I saved the Photoshop image as a .jpeg for insertion into my PDF Converter programme. I know the file was uploaded in PDF but the PDF Converter would not accept it, thus the circular route.”

“A bit fiddly to draw the outlines on the map and not possible to overlay existing drawings to guide the process. Lost the whole outline once by clicking on the wrong bit.”

“Good value and easy, much easier than Promap although I don't recall if I was offered the option of having the map as a dxf / dwg which is often my preference. I'd have given it 5/5 were it not for the fact that the payment page refused to accept my post code, said it was the wrong post code for the debit card and wouldn't accept payment, it absolutely was not the wrong post code! Meant I had to 'phone to make payment which rather spoiled the "convenience" aspect!”

“Very easy to order. I didn't like the export form which comes as sub-classes (sub-layers) so takes twice as long for me to process, so not sure I would order again.”

“Could not order online as it did not seem to work. Had to order by phone. Woman said it would be with me with me in 5 minutes but after nearly an hour email still had not come through. I had to phone back and it appears she put "ooo"in outlook. I got my maps but the were DPF when I had asked for MSWord format. Got them eventually after I sent another email. Maps look ok. As I was trying to complete a planning application online I could have done without the additional hassle.”
