“My Review of Ground Control”
Pros
It integrates well with the drone we purchased.
Cons
We were sold the cloud-based version instead of the desktop version, and this version doesn't fully support the functions we need. During online training, we were told that Measure hoped they made this clear during the sale negotiations. I wasn't involved in those discussions, so I'm not sure.

“Ground Control Free Trial”
Pros
Powerful! The learning curve for beginners is a bit steep, but investing time reveals the potential for a valuable software investment.
Cons
The learning curve is a bit steep. A more gradual introductory tutorial would be helpful.

“First Timer Review”
Pros
My first use of the MGC software was with the waypoint-autonomous mission flights. After consulting with a supervisor on operating the drone using this feature, I conducted a test flight, which went smoothly. It was easy enough that we immediately used it to capture images for a commercial job. All imaging missions were successful and produced a commercial product. This software has vast potential!
Cons
I don't have any negative feedback. As a visual learner, I would appreciate more videos demonstrating the different features in action, sort of an over-the-shoulder view of the feature being used.

“Ag research plots”
Pros
Flight planning was mostly easy to use and performed well for grid surveying the area of interest.
Cons
There was no "rough" ortho generated during or shortly after the mission. It would have been extremely helpful to see where I flew, if the images were roughly in the correct area, and if they were of decent quality.
