QUESTIONS

Common questions

How is MapsGrid different from Whitespark?

MapsGrid does one job: geogrid rank tracking with history, alerts and client reports. Unused points carry over for a month, reports can carry your own logo, and it is free to use. If you need a wider toolbox, Whitespark may fit better.

Can I bring my history over from Whitespark?

Not today. Your MapsGrid history starts with your first scan, which takes a few minutes for a 7×7 grid.
