Our business directory was a mess and it was not easy to make changes. The directory management product that you provide was the answer that we needed. I was able to move all our information into the system and now moving listings around or making edits is very simple. The mapping features and how the listing look on our site are wonderful and I have had a lot of people tell me how nice it looks.
