FAQ

Common questions

How is CRE Retail Maps different from SitesUSA?+

SitesUSA is a location intelligence / GIS platform - deep demographic data, site selection analytics, enterprise pricing. CRE Retail Maps is a visual retail mapping tool - professional maps with brand logos for OMs, flyers, and presentations, $39/mo. They solve different problems. If you need demographics and psychographics, keep SitesUSA. If you need to turn a property address into a polished retail map in 10 minutes, we're the tool.

Can CRE Retail Maps do demographics and foot traffic analysis?+

No. That's intentional - those are SitesUSA, Placer.ai, and CoStar's domain. We are the visual presentation layer that sits on top of data from those tools. Many of our users pair us with CoStar or SitesUSA for the data side.

Do I need to know GIS or ArcGIS to use CRE Retail Maps?+

No. The editor is designed for brokers, not analysts. Enter an address, search and drop brand logos, export a branded PDF. If you can use PowerPoint, you can use CRE Retail Maps.

What about pricing?+

$39/mo monthly or $379/yr annual. Transparent, on the website, no sales calls or enterprise quotes required. You can cancel anytime from Settings.

Does CRE Retail Maps export the same kind of maps SitesUSA produces?+

We produce branded PDF templates and high-res PNGs (up to 4K) focused on retail context - brand logos on a styled map with leader lines, subject property, and your brokerage branding. Not GIS-style choropleths or heat maps. For those, SitesUSA remains the right tool.

Can I use both at the same time?+

Yes, and most serious brokers do. Pull demographics from SitesUSA or CoStar, build the visual retail map in CRE Retail Maps, drop both into your OM. The tools complement each other.
