My organisation is considering moving from Streets & Trips to Mappoint 2009 for all of our mapping and navigation needs. Our drivers need a robust and good mapping system with GPS capability to navigate to dispatched locations. We really like how you can export from Mappoint to Excel and geoquery assets within a user defined area. in streets & trips you can not do this. Does mappoint have the same capabilities for mapping and routing as Streets & Trips 2008? What is the big difference? What is better with Streets & Trips vs. Mappoint and vice-versa?

Thank you for your help

Gerhard

Hi Gerhard,

As far as I know there is nothing that Streets & Trips can do that MapPoint cannot do.

In addition to Streets & Trips functionality, MapPoint can be pragmatically controlled, you can create add-on applications for it.

The only downside is that Microsoft releases new MapPoint versions once in about 2 years (Streets & Trips releases annually).
