Choosing a maps platform is a big step. Here is a comparison of Radar and Bing Maps Platform to help you make a decision.
Radar is the developer-friendly, all-in-one alternative to Bing Maps Platform. Like Bing Maps Platform, Radar provides geocoding APIs, search APIs, routing APIs, and base maps. However, technical teams prefer our beautiful vector maps, open-source SDKs, and developer-friendly documentation.
Radar Maps Platform is complemented by our industry-leading Geofencing Platform, which also supports location tracking, geofencing, place visit detection, trip tracking, and advanced location analytics.
Thousands of companies, including Panera, DICK’S Sporting Goods, T-Mobile, and Zillow, trust Radar’s location tracking SDKs and maps APIs to power location-based experiences across hundreds of millions of devices worldwide.
