Great tool for determining where to live
I'm solving my personal problem of determining where to live relative to my workplace and other places I care about. I want to limit my driving time for places I frequent, and OALLEY elegantly solves this problem for me by plotting the area that keeps my driving time within acceptable limits.
PROSI came across OALLEY because I was searching for software that could do what no other mapping application could -- show me what areas are within a certain driving time, relative to a chosen address. I love how simple OALLEY makes this. It makes it seem so easy that it's astounding Google hasn't already done this. Yet OALLEY is as far as I can tell the only application that lets you see this information.
CONSI'm not a commercial user, so I deal with the small annoyances that come from using a free trial version of software. However, those aside, I can't see anything negative about this application. It does exactly what it's supposed to, and probably a lot more for commercial applications.
Reasons for switching to smappen
Google Maps didn't have the functionality I was looking for. I could look up driving times between specific addresses, but it didn't give the the general information of an area that would always keep my travel times within acceptable limits.

Easy, straightforward, and reliable
So far, Oalley has added great value to our operations and completely solved our need to quickly and reliably create customized maps. Those customized maps can be further edited and modified, and that really helps to visualize the data better and also to convey more information more effectively.
PROSWhat I like most about Oalley is that it covers one specific need really well: the need to quickly and reliably generate customized maps. Nothing more (so it doesn't overwhelm), but also nothing less (so it doesn't disappoint). As a data analyst, I work mainly with spreadsheets, but occasionally I do need a map to help visualize the data more effectively. ArcGIS is too sophisticated and Google Maps too basic, and that's where Oalley really provides the best solution. For example, within minutes I can create a commute radius for a given restaurant in Miami, then simply screenshot it and add it to my spreadsheet.
CONSSometimes the address of a location on Oalley shows up slightly differently than on Google Maps, maybe that's due to abbreviations - but definitely something to look out for. Also, I realize that the "truck" function is currently only available in France, but if Oalley can make the "truck" function also available in the US, that'd be greatly appreciated :)

Great Product for my company
Very postive. Smappen is a great service and has been a great solution for my company. Im very happy with Smappen
PROSSmappen is great. It allows us to create very focused data for our outreach efforts and company expansion. In just over a year, Smappen has changed so much and added so many features. The added features have made Smappen so much more valuable, and easy to justify for my company.
CONSIt used to be a bit limited, but so many great features, like searching for different locations, and population data have made the app so much more useful and applicable for a wider range of projects. I just wish with the points of interest feature that the data was a bit more fine-tuned. Sometimes some irrelevant businesses and organizations end up in the data set. I'm sure this will improve as time goes on tough, since it's a relatively new feature.

Great tool!
I love using Smappen at work to better localize our clients and providers. The "Area Type" and "Travel mode" functions are extremely efficient and representative of 'true' distances.
CONSSometimes, Smappen can't find an exact address typed in the "Starting Address" field and will only select either the street or the city in the address, so hopefully, this bug will be fixed soon.
