I had a great user experience with this tool.

What are the best aspects of this product?

Oftentimes, tools such as google maps aren't enough to deal with geospatial data and customized display information. Accessing various databases to extract data that can be viewed conveniently within the map is challenging. GeoServer improved all that by enabling connectivity between maps and databases through the settings menu. It also allows embedding and accessing of maps from any program using SDKs as OpenLayer for web applications. I also really liked its comprehensive report and its collaboration with various databases.

What aspects are problematic or could work better?

As a developer, setting up the server is a little challenging because you should know things about apache tomcat. Also, you need to purchase the cloud-based version of GeoServer to be able to use it. I think that it would be nice to have a free version to test it out first and build proof of concepts.

What specific problems in your company were solved by this product?

It helps me with the need to share data about different projects across the country. Regions with various criteria showed that data, enabling the leaders to make decisions based on it.
