What amCharts & amMaps users say
I receive some nice feedback from amCharts and amMap users time to time, however don’t have a "Testimonials" page. But I can’t not share this one:
Wow! I must say that your products are amazing!
With just a little bit of time on Google I found your amMap. Of course, when I first saw it, I thought "Cool! But we can’t use it." Because I needed a custom map of Missouri, I didn’t think your product was viable. But, I kept coming back to it - it just wouldn’t leave me alone! It was way too cool! Well, the more I evaluated, the more viable it became. And the documentation about creating customized maps sent it over the top. Nothing else - and I do mean NOTHING - that I had reviewed came anywhere close. It was very intuitive and easy to use. Well, in a very short time, I was able to complete the project. It debuted on "Super Tuesday" (Feb 5, 2008) at http://www.sos.mo.gov/enrmaps/.
The basis of the project was to provide a series of maps/charts that showed who was leading the 2008 presidential preference primary in Missouri based on party and which counties had completed their vote totals. With the live data we already collected with an older application, watching the maps and charts change dynamically was really exciting! We usually get quite a bit of traffic anyway, but it increased with the interactive maps! We were mentioned by Karl Rove on the national Fox News broadcast and have been receiving many comments since about how fantastic the pages were and how did we do it.
Of course, I owe it all to you! I’m debating on whether to continue being selfish and hording you as my secret weapon, or being nice and sharing the info. Of course, in the end I’ll have to share, but I wanted to first contact you. Again, thanks for such wonderful products! Keep up the excellent work!

Dear Mr. Marcelionis,
I have worked with your free charts and I can say, that you have done a big and very good work. The relation between functionality and price is good. I think I will order in a few days.
May I ask where you are located? Is the foto above a sign for your country or your town - a lot of fish?

I live in Vilnius, Lithuania. And the fish is from Canary islands :)

I completely agree with Reinhold.
I have looked around for a while for new flash graph software for my international website. I have up until now (soon) used ‘PHP/SWF Charts’ which was fine for a while, but it has been outdated and has it limits.
I then found FusionCharts who also have a good package, but it’s waaay too pricey for the average site. And they require $2000 for a version where you can change the language (which is insane!).
Then i found your software and it looked promising. I then thought that you probably didn’t offer AJAX support and translations, but you did!. I also found that all the features you have incorporated, is done so in a very intelligent, way so they are logical to use and manipulate. And all the small extra things you made all combine into a nice finish.
Very good job :)

I use Adobe Director to produce presentations and interactive projects for clients. I needed a series of good-looking, anti-aliased pie charts to allow a client to present statistical data. I could have spent hours (weeks?) trying to remember the trigonometry to do this, but fortunately found your site.
Thanks to the speedy response I received from you pointing me in the right direction for setting the sprite parameters it’s all working beautifully. I’ve licensed the product for this one project, but will certainly back to upgrade to enterprise, as I can see a whole bunch of clients wanting this added to their presentation toolkit.
A great product, well supported and sensibly priced. I wish you every success and recommend your product to all those thousands of other Director developers out there.

I was looking for chart like on google finance for months. Now I found it… It’s amazing, but you should work on performance

I ´ve been looking for a suitable map for our world map project (www.kengeo.com) for a very long time now. So far, we use a self made map, I built some years ago. But I was never very happy with it…
If your map is half as good as it looks like, thats what I always wanted.
I will give it a try very soon!
You`ve done a very good job!

This is a great tool for creating maps. Very flexible and the help documentation and comments in the code allow you to quickly and easily create a map to your specifications. This enables anyone to create a decent map for their website with minimal effort and time.
I am in the process of creating a map for the Vendee Globe 2008 and will let you know when it is live.
