| grass "Grass is good for raster processing. If they ever got away from having to set your own regions and import every dataset, it'd be way better. It's pretty clunky and hard to use and some tools simply don't work well or at all so its always trial and error. However, it is free and has many tools that work really well. I like it overall but it leaves a lot to be desired for usability and algorithm stability. I've had tools fail and fill up an entire hard drive with garbage. The flip side is that it can be fast and return good results if you get lucky." |

| qgis "QGIS keeps getting better. It does just about everything ESRI can do. Its unfortunate that using it with SDE is so tricky though. I try to use qgis for what it does best, which is basic viewing and analysis. Plugins are hit or miss but the basic stuff like ftools and gdal tools work ok for the most part. like every other GIS software out there, it works well for some things but is unstable in many other ways.
