The good: Excellent integration with other Office XP apps; new tools create maps that display sales or service territories; updated demographic data includes 2000 census estimates.
The bad: Expensive; requires 410MB minimum disk space; doesn't ship with Office XP.

Summary: We find we're unable to move the pushpins and accompanying tags on the map. The program allows the user to place the tag to the upper right, upper left, lower right or lower left of the push pin but not to customize the tag to the user's liking. Delorme's new "Street Atlas 2003 Plus" does provide this essential feature. If a user wanted to pinpoint and label over a hundred convenience stores in Indianapolis, he'd have a real mess with overlapping tags.

Summary: I am still learning about all the things you can do with MapPoint, because you really can do a lot. There is, however, a lot of small things that need work like: you can't remove/change the core maps and you can't pick just the lower 48 states without Canada and Mexico. These are just a few examples, but overall I am usually impressed with what MapPoint can do. I look forward to upgrades.

Summary: Very good mapping s/w. I love the way it works with Pocket Streets 2002 and my iPAQ, but you can get that with the cheaper Streets & Trips 2002 product. Some map areas are up-to-date, some less populated area data is over 3 years old! MS, we want a map update! From a business standpoint tho, its probably the best out there. This is MS' Streets & Trips 2002 with some business add-ons. Unless you own a business that really needs it, stick with Streets & Trips 2002.

- Description: Designed for everyday business use, Microsoft MapPoint allows Microsoft Office users of any skill level, in any size organization, to easily visualize their business information, communicate key data using maps and integrate maps into the work they do in Office. MapPoint is a unique business-mapping program that combines powerful mapping and analysis tools with the simplicity of Microsoft Office, enabling people to see how location makes a difference to their business. Create maps with your own data. Step-by-step instructions guide you on how to apply your sales information, and demographic variables to a variety of map types. Make your map look how you want by defining data range, legend label and ramp color palette. Associate more data to a map by adding pie and column charts to maps. Get address-to-address driving directions. MapPoint will calculate optimized routes based on imported addresses. Turn simple routes into an analysis tool by generating drive-time zones to/from a specified location(s). Import customer, and contact information from Microsoft Excel, Access or Outlook to create a map of their locations. Create your own pushpin icons and use them on your data maps. Or choose multiple symbols that best represent a Series of data. Create maps that group common areas and overlay key information to these regions. MapPoint provides increased integration with other Office applications, including access points that make basic mapping function easier to use. MapPoint also supports data importation from Access, Excel, Outlook or any SQL Server database.
