From simple to complex mappings works fine.

Likeliness to Recommend

8 /10

What differentiates Altova MapForce from other similar products?

Lots of import and output formats are supported.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

When developing a new mapping, it is easy to start small, check the result, and continue building a complex mapping.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Keep the overview of what is happening on complex mappings. We need to convert the mapping to an Executable JAR file using Eclips. This jar file is used in our software. Creating the jar file is very time-consuming. When checking the output the ' is converted to ' But when executing the jar file, this problem does not exist. In the older versions of Mapforce we did not have this issue.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Start with the available training. When creating a complex mapping, start small, and keep adding functionality. For repeating functions, write User defined functions.

Pros

Saves Time
Respectful
Effective Service
Caring

Cons

Less Efficient Service
