Managed Updates for Interactive Maps (New Packages!)

Updated: Jill Bobrick Edited:

What Are Managed Updates?

Managed Updates allow you to keep your interactive map visuals and data up to date without the hassle of quotes, SOWs, or funding approvals. Instead, updates are covered under an annual subscription, ensuring regular changes and faster turnaround times.

With four tiers available, you can choose the option that best fits your needs and budget.

 

Why Choose Managed Updates?

  • No more back-and-forth approvals – Save time by eliminating the need for SOWs and quotes.
  • Keep your map accurate – Regular updates help maintain accurate wayfinding, location labels, and campus visuals.
  • Predictable budgeting – A single annual fee covers all included updates, reducing unexpected costs.

 

How It Works

  1. Select the best tier – Choose from four plans based on your update needs.
  2. Submit update requests – Requests that fall within your selected tier do not require additional approvals.
  3. Receive timely updates* – Most updates are completed within 30 business days of submission. 
  4. Upgrade anytime – Need more updates? You can upgrade mid-term, but downgrades are not allowed.

* In general, updates are completed within 30 days. Seasonality and scale of updates may impact timelines. Tier and order submitted will impact priority. There may be a 6-8 week turnaround depending on the complexity of the request.

 

Subscription & Renewal Policies

Purchasing Details

  • Managed Updates are sold as an annual or multi-year subscription.
  • Multi-year subscriptions (3+ years) receive a 10% discount.
  • Annual payment is required upfront, independent of your billing cycle.
  • Unused updates cannot be rolled over into the next term ("use-it-or-lose-it" policy).

Cancellation Policy

To keep Managed Updates cost-effective and efficient, frequent cancellations and reactivations are discouraged.

  • Downgrades are not allowed mid-term, but you can upgrade anytime.
  • If you cancel Managed Updates and later repurchase:
    • You must pay for any missed years before reinstating the service.
    • Any previous pricing or grandfathered discounts are forfeited—pricing and packages may change yearly.
