All I want is a political map of the world with a group of 60 countries on it shaded. There is little control over shades -- I have a choice of sixteen colors for my group of shaded countries. That's it -- and oddly, none of them are colors I would willingly choose. The map is labeled not only by country names but also by certain states in the United States. There is no way to turn off this labeling. For my simple purposes, this program is unusable.

Once I began defining the territories, using the US census geographic unit, my system crashed. I was not even halfway through the process. Microsoft's suggestions were to uninstall and reinstall but this did not fix the problem. Currently I am able to use about half of the functionality. I am very unhappy with this purchase.

This product is fine if you do not want to print your map. I created a territory and added locations via the pushpins. At a lower zoom level, my pushpins overlap and are unreadable. I wanted to print the whole territory at a certain zoom level to allow veiwing of all the pushpins without overlap onto however many pages it takes. This is not possible. It will only print what you see on your screen. If you want to print your whole map, you literally have to save your screen view into a graphic file, scroll to the next area, save it as well and repeat until you have saved your entire territory. Once you have saved the whole map in peices, you can print all your files and tape them together to make one big map. Ridiculous!!
