London, 13th January, 2009: A new report from UK analyst firm Strategy Analytics has cited Telmap, a global leader in mobile search, mapping and navigation solutions, as users’ preferred navigation solution above competitors Nokia Maps, Garmin and TomTom. The report also revealed that more consumers are ready to adopt mobile navigation in the UK in preference to the in-car PND.
Highlights from the report revealed:
• Preferred solution - Telmap Navigator was the preferred navigation service compared to the TomTom GP 920 and Garmin nüvi710
• Better search - Telmap Navigator scored highly when searching general destinations and local points of interest
• Usability - Telmap Navigator and Garmin’s nüvi710 excelled at local search functionality owing to the ease of the user interface. Users found Telmap Navigator to be the fastest when searching and mapping (with an average of 1.2 clicks), which was fewer than either PND tested. Users cited Telmap’s ease of use and speed of searching general destinations and local points of interest as significant benefits over the competing products.
