I used Geomedia in college but now work with ArcInfo and have an ArcEditor license for some consulting I do on the side. That license is expensive, and I wanted to see what Intergraph has to offer now. All I can find are one-paragraph descriptions of the products, and no feature lists or screenshots. Terrible marketing.

Although there are mixed thoughts about this at the Intergraph level, I was talking to David Holmes today at the Intergraph Customer Feedback forum and he said that they would begin exposing some of the “sales” type of information/literature to the public (folks without a login/password) again very soon (as in this month). Although Intergraph still very strongly believes that they’re providing some “value” to the customers by placing minor releases and other types of information behind a login and password. I guess the theory is that maintenance-paying customers are getting a value from having minor releases/patches put behind a login and password. That way we can be assured that folks that aren’t paying maintenance are able to get this login and password. I’m actually probably going to have a seperate blog entry on this as I really think the thought process is rather flawed.

I find it hard to believe that it is not readily available. Fortunately, there are many other commercial and open source offerings which I can easily research on the web.

You’ve got to have an “e-service” login to get anything… I think their marketing strategy is changing. Not sure what direction, but everything is starting to get hidden behind locked doors….

For instance, I have customers that I have to support that need new e-service loggin accounts just to get hot fixes for their current GMP lics. That’s only changed in the last couple of months too. Not sure what’s going on with that unless they’re suddenly worried about non-Intergraph customers getting this information for some alterior purpose.

Unofficially (I seriously dont know for sure) I think the prodcut spects for GMP are 1GHz processor and 1GB of RAM, but I’ve used it on a 2GHz Processor and .5GB RAM machine (a bit slowly), and I recomend a Duel Core 2GHz processor and 2GB RAM machine (my current configuration). You can always use more RAM as the program is a memory hog, but with the 2GB, I’ve never run out.

no infos from Integraph yet. I will tell you when I get them. However, it could be that my sending address is also not that much attractive to them (as I use my university account)

Btw.: I browsed yesterday the German Intergraph page. While I have been first “excited” finding some info to every software product (in German), a minute later I was disappointed about the infos in the PDFs. No details inside – just how good the software is; in general. Not that it believe it is not (at least I hope so, as the University of Zurich just replaced in the GIS I course ArcView by Geomedia after an evaluation)… but I my expectations…

Interesting..didn’t know James read my blog…. Did you hear back from Intergraph support? I still really want to find those specs as well.

All in all, the Intergraph site has never been that strong…but I just can’t understand why they make it so hard….
