Atlanta, GA, August 9, 2013—The need to organize, visualize, analyze and share Geospatial data is growing at an ever increasing rate, but the cost of deploying desktop, server, mobile and web GIS solutions has been a prohibiting factor for many. Esri's cloud-based mapping solution, ArcGIS Online provides a cost effective and robust platform for sharing geospatial data with users both inside and outside of your organization.

“ArcGIS Online represents a big step into the future for the use of GIS. Being able to share maps, data, tools and more via the Cloud is a powerful means of delivery. Now anyone with a web connection can access critical information at any time on almost any device, whether it is a smart phone, tablet, laptop or desktop computer.” says Tripp Corbin, CEO of eGIS Associates.

Esri’s most recent update to ArcGIS Online in July added new spatial analysis tools, improved imagery display, improved routing tools, incorporated additional web application templates and more to further expand its capabilities. eGIS Associates' new FlightPlan^© for ArcGIS Online can help your organization navigate the Cloud and ensure a successful implementation and deployment of Esri's ArcGIS Online.

Jason Kandrick, President of eGIS Associates believes that “Esri opened the flood gates for their customers to implement ArcGIS Online when they incorporated an ArcGIS Online subscription for organizations who use ArcGIS for Desktop 10.2 (Basic, Standard, or Advanced) and are current on maintenance. While ArcGIS Online releases whole new level of access to GIS technology [thereby expanding an organization’s ROI], many GIS users are still unsure about cloud-based services, what they are and how they can be used. This is why we created our FlightPlan^© for ArcGIS Online service – to assist our customers with implementing Esri’s powerful new tool, free of turbulence.”

The new entitlement mentioned above provides those with ArcGIS for Desktop licenses on current maintenance with a number of named users plus 100 ArcGIS Online Credits equal to the total number of ArcGIS for Desktop licenses.
