MAPublisher User Survey


This questionnaire is for people who currently own or use MAPublisher. It has been designed to help us gather information towards making MAPublisher more functional and powerful according to the wishes of our users. So now is the time to let us know about the killer functions you would like to see in the next version of MAPublisher. It is a rather lengthy questionnaire but we assure you that all questions are important. This is the best way for us to gather the information we need and you want us to have in order to provide you with the products you want. This is your voice. Upon completion of the survey you will be sent a $35 coupon by mail that is good towards any future purchase from Avenza through December 31, 2002. This coupon will be sent to the address you enter in the first section of the form so please pay careful attention. If you are not a current user of MAPublisher please take our Non-user Survey by following the link below. All required fields are denoted with a pointed finger.
