"Info USA" can lick my hairy bunghole

So I need to create two maps of the US…just 2 stinking maps with different states colored in for a presentation I’m working on. I find online “Business Mapping” software from Info USA. “Advanced Business Mapping Solution” “designed to create and define sales territories”. The exact map I want on the box. Ahhh…perfect. I order.

Yeah, perfect, except for the part where there are no directions, no manual, and “help” has no response to “sales”, “territories” or god help me, “map”. What the fuck??? Should I know instinctively how to work this crap? How the hell do I get rid of Canada, Mexico, and the Atlantic and Pacific oceans? All I want is the US. And how the hell do I color it in???

Tech support “Leave a message and we’ll call you back.”, surprisingly did not result in a return phone call. :rolleyes: Amazingly, email didn’t get a response either…

So after wasting an entire day trying to get this to work, I finally get tech support on the phone. “All I want to do is make two versions of the map that’s on the front of your box.” I explain.

“Oh that? You can’t do that with this software.”

Holy fucking shit. You mean to tell me you’re selling mapping software and you can’t even make the map that’s on the front of the box??? The one right under the giant headline that says “Advanced Business Mapping Solution. Designed to create and define sales territories.” The only reason I bought this piece of shit???

Who’s the glutinous blob of reeky knob cheese that designed this packaging???

What are they fucking thinking??? Now I have to go fight to get my money back. What a great big, fat fucking waste of time!!!

:mad:

Rule of thumb? Any piece of “buisiness software” that costs less than $50 is unlikely to actually do what it says it does. For less than $20 (which is what a quick search found for this product), I think you got the exact level of support that you paid for.

Perhaps you should go to an epinions.com-type site and write a review?

Yeah…I agree there’s a direct connection between what you get and what you pay for. Unfortunately in this case, I figured what I wanted was so basic, that the price was right.

Good idea on epinions!
