I use Google Maps API to obtain direct mileage for better rates and alternate routes for drivers. Business problems I encounter are related to truck routes VS. auto routes. My drivers will often search and take alternate routes to avoid tolls and other high traffic areas they may encounter. I do not solely rely on Google Maps but rather use it as an alternate map to obtain more information along their route.
Pros
Point to Point mileage
actual routes and best use route planning
Traffic and other incident reporting real time
Cons
Best case truck route planning
zip to zip mileage accuracy
Toll accuracy and bridge management

We have rating software from a different map provider. I have found discrepancies in their miles and used Google Maps to rectify and accurately adjust my rate. This also helps me plan my driver's time to avoid delays and allow accurate arrival time reporting to my customer and the delivery facility.
This application is one of the greatest applications in the current era. It is easy to reach any place in any country, governorate, or street. For example, I [can] show my location. In the past, I had trouble explaining the place and the street, and now all I have to do is send the location and the customer comes directly without an address. Thank you for this application.
Pros
Access to any address in any location inside or outside the city
Tracking anyone to and from a specific location, such as my children, [so] I know where they are
Cons
It is an easy application and it is difficult to find any problems or observations for it as it is a giant company that is always developing on its own.
Likelihood to Recommend
The application supports most places, but I hope that the places will be located more closely. Sometimes, the satellite image is not clear.
Our company uses Google Maps API across our whole organization. We do appointment setting and lead generation for businesses across the U.S., and quite often, a client has a large geographical area they are targeting. So in each of our databases, we have a link for Google Map API so that they can schedule appointments in the same area on the same day. This is good for our clients, so they don't have to travel a long distance back and forth between their appointments.
Pros
It allows us to schedule appointments in the same area on the same day.
It enables me to recommend geographical areas to target for our clients.
Cons
I would like more information about population in a particular area.

We are a call center that does appointment setting for businesses across the U.S. Quite often, and we have a client with an extensive geographical area they are targeting, sometimes even across multiple states. Our callers can quickly search the area so that they schedule appointments on the same day in the same area. Very important to our clients as they get distraught when we send them to an appointment 2 hours away and then another appointment back to where they came from and then another appointment in the middle of the two, and the client is driving back and forth. Not Good! I do not have a scenario where it did not work for what I needed it for.
