My coworkers and I also use it almost daily at our office! Pros It is super easy to type in an address, and it also auto populates an address to make it quicker to find what you are looking for! It also shows the condition of roads, and it can help you to plan what routes you may take when traveling! I loved all of the different features like the fact that you can click on a street view or move from one place to the next and zooming in! They have amazing customer support and it is such good value for your money, I highly recommend! You get so much! Cons Honestly I loved every part about Google Earth Pro, and the only con I would say is that sometimes you are not able to access specific spots for street views, but that is not their fault so I guess it is all good!

Studente Higher Education ### "Google Earth Pro " 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 February 21, 2026 Nel complesso con Google Earth Pro mi sono trovata bene per me non è stato difficile utilizzarla forse pootrebbe risultare un po complessa per chi non ha mainutulizzato queste app o non è esperto e inoltre oltre all'app è presente anche il sito da poter consultare. Pros Google Earth Pro è un app gratuita utile per navigare in vari posti, città, contineti per vedere dove sono localizzati i posti, permette di vedere i luoghi, edifici e citta in 3D ed è possibile creare anche tour virtuali e immagini ad alta risoluzione ed è intrgrata bene con i servizi Google. Cons Gli scantaggi sono che forse un po difficilme da utilizzare per chi si trova alle prime armi, richede in pc potente per poterla utilizzare e inoltre alcune immagini non sono aggiornate e necessita di un spazio di memoria abbastanza elevato perché occupa spazio.

Survey Manager Construction ### "Construction & Google Earth Pro" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 December 17, 2025 Excellent. Google Earth Pro has always been our go to software for mapping and site development views of projects over time. Pros it's satellite mapping is great for for use with our company to locate our projects and their conditions without visiting every site. Mapping is very often updated and also allows exporting of maps for use in other software we use. Cons I do wish it included elevation contours like some other map software have. I would also like to see dating of the data that is being viewed on the screen more easily for use on prints. Switched from [Nearmap](https://www.capterra.com/p/237908/Nearmap/) Cost of NearMap is expensive for what results it gives you compared to Google Earth Pro Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.
