Testimonials From Some of Our Users

Hear what our customers have to say about our products — and our team — in their own words.

We purchased our units from 4D Global, and the support from Peter Terrett has be amazing. His knowledge of the product, its capabilities, and his capacity to supply additional units/ items at short notice is outstanding. We have been really impressed with the Arrow 100® units.

Principal Geospatial (Lead), Everick Heritage Pty Ltd / Australia

A lot of times, especially now, we are getting a lot of clients that are asking us for our accuracy. They actually want to see that our accuracy is what we say it is. So with the Arrow GNSS receivers, we’re able to take a deeper dive into our GNSS and find out what our accuracy for these different points were.

Wetlands & Permitting Manager, Environmental Solutions & Innovations, Inc. / USA

We have our own in-house surveying department and recently just started utilizing the Eos Arrow receivers coupled with drones and high definition scanners and other technology to help bolster our survey and field data collection.

Project Manager, The DDS Companies / New York

We looked at all the equipment and software out there, and the Arrow 100® had the best ratings under trees. We determined that it was the best GNSS receiver available, with the best performance, that fit our budget.

Lead Gardener, Woodland Park Zoo / Seattle, WA

For us, being a remote northern community where GPS satellites are a bit less visible, the fact that the Arrow 100® supports a constellation like GLONASS was a huge improvement.

Woodlands Operations Supervisor, Tolko Industries / Alberta, Canada

From the moment we first spoke with the Canadian staff from Eos, we received a personalized relationship. We understood from then on, that Eos would be our partner in terms of satellite positioning systems. Their Arrow GNSS solutions fully covered the needs we had, and they met our expectations.

Technical Cadastral Coordinator, ConHydra / Peru

The thing I enjoy about the Arrow Gold® is that it’s very rugged, because I’m out in the field a lot. It’s easy to put together, easy to hook up, and easy to understand. And it works really well. I’m using the Arrow Gold® just like the surveyors would.

Owner, Raptor Aerial Services / New Caney, TX

Well we have received the Arrow 200® unit. It is awesome! It’s the easiest to configure GPS receiver that I’ve used in my 20+ years of GPS data collection.

GIS Coordinator, Mohawk Valley Water Authority / Utica, New York

I think the reasons why the Arrow GNSS receivers were preferred by our inspectors over other hardware solutions were that the Arrow receivers were easy to configure, simple to deploy, lightweight, rugged and above all else, accurate.

Vice President of Geospatial Solutions, Palmetto Engineering & Consulting / South Carolina

I just bought an Arrow 100® and am very impressed with it’s accuracy right out of the box. The unit continues to operate flawlessly, giving me almost constant accuracy below 1 meter!

President, Northern Forests, LLC / Maine

We’re getting our operations folks what they need in seven to ten days to have confidence in what we’re doing in GIS.

GIS Project Manager, Indiana American Water / Indiana

The Esri software is totally in tune with the hardware, for extra accuracy.

GIS and Positioning Technical Consultant, Northumbrian Water / England

For the first time since the winter, our technicians used the tool that had been installed (iPad® + GNSS). They were charmed and the tool did everything we expected. They saved a lot of research time. I wanted to thank you as you have made a great contribution to the success of this tool.

Officer, Management of Technical Documentation, Quebec International Airport / Quebec, Canada

Because the cost and effort involved was fairly minimal, it just made a lot more sense to go ahead and set up our own base station. We also thought there could be other groups in the city that would use this system.

Water Distribution Supervisor, City of Santa Barbara / California

Compared to the collection equipment cost in 2013, the Arrow Gold® comes in around half of that. The best part is – there is no accuracy loss.

GIS Manager, Oldham County Water District / La Grange, Kentucky

With the Arrow 100®, I can normally say that a property marker is here within a foot. It’s incredibly accurate. With the Arrow 200® / Arrow Gold® and RTK network, I get two centimeters or closer than that.

Co-Founder, MittNorr Skog & Fasteight AB / Östersund, Sweden

And now I felt like we finally had the last piece to our puzzle. The days of waiting 30 seconds to get a point were over. Points now come as fast as you can tap the buttons.

District Engineer, Le-Ax Water District / Athens, Ohio

Thank you so much for the exceptional support you have provided during our work with the Eos Arrow 100®. My interactions with every one of your folks was pleasant and helpful.

Project Engineer, Geosyntec Consultants / Portland, Oregon

I love the Arrow Gold® receiver’s combined versatility, accuracy, and ease of use. It is super easy to train new staff on how to use this device and it is very easy to implement and deploy.

GIS Practice Leader, OHM Advisors / Michigan

I’ve worked with Eos support a few times on troubleshooting issues and they’ve always been extremely helpful. The response time to requests, and the time to finding a resolution has consistently blown me away. I think all companies could take a leaf from your book!

Watershed GIS Coordinator, Department of Conservation & Recreation / Massachusetts

The Arrow Gold® receiver was very easy to hold, very lightweight. I was impressed with how far the technology has come. The whole thing can be carried on a belt.

GIS Supervisor, SSVEC / Wilcox, Arizona

Installing each meter used to cost us approximately $211.91 in labor and fuel. With high-accuracy mobile GIS, the cost per meter went down to $111.19.

GIS Manager, Oldham County Water District / La Grange, Kentucky

I have been using the Arrow Gold® in my data collection workflows for the past 6 months. The Arrow Gold® paired with Esri’s Collector has provided the easiest, fastest, and most accurate workflow I have ever experienced. On top of that, the unit has held up very well while moving through dense cedar stands, crawling in the dirt, and even out in the rain.

GIS Analyst, Texian Geospatial / San Marcos, Texas

The thing I enjoy about the Arrow Gold® is that it’s very rugged, because I’m out in the field a lot. It’s easy to put together, easy to hook up, and easy to understand. And it works really well. I’m using the Arrow Gold® just like the surveyors would.

Owner, Raptor Aerial Services / New Caney, Texas

The Arrow connected to Collector is truly revolutionizing GIS for our customers. So good to see Esri and Eos working together to pair these two technologies to streamline and improve field data collection.

GIS Department Manager, Anderson Perry & Associates Inc. / Bend, Oregon

Currently, we use the Arrow Gold® GNSS receivers for the fast and precise location of all hydraulic and non-hydraulic elements of the aqueduct networks in cities where we have projects.

Technical Cadastral Coordinator, ConHydra / Peru

Two years ago, we went with the Arrow 100®, and it’s much more accurate than the Garmin. Now, we are sure we will get back to the same tree — at the same exact spot.

Forestry Technician, City of Montreal / Montreal, Quebec, Canada

The level of accuracy—knowing you’re within a meter of the point you recorded before—gives you a higher degree of confidence. Five meters would skew our results quite seriously. The accuracy eliminates a level of uncertainty in our monitoring.

Director, Wetland Surveys Ireland / Ireland

The Arrow 100® is a small GPS unit with a small antenna, it was easy to move in the field, and it got me the results I needed. I chose it because of the advanced technical data it provides and its price.

Owner, Åsklosterprojektet / Åskloster, Sweden

I spoke with one for your techs on the phone, and he fixed me up in record time. Merci beaucoup, good service!

Chairman, Fraser River Pilots / Vancouver, Canada

It’s the affordable price of the Arrow 100® that has made it more possible for my small company to expand, grow, and offer more services. That price point allowed me to work with clients like mine.

President, Northern Forests, LLC / Maine

Having a backpack & Bluetooth® GNSS receiver that can just tap into your device is really important. And being an ethical company we just wanted to get that submeter accuracy.

GIS and Positioning Technical Consultant, Northumbrian Water / Durham, England

Most of the time they got into the 2-centimeter range. That’s nearly perfect for us. Without this RTK network, you couldn’t really guarantee better than twelve feet. Many assets moved 50-100 feet. That’s a big difference, when you look at a road and want to know on which side of the road the pole is located.

GIS Supervisor, Sulphur Springs Valley Electric Co-operative / Wilcox, Arizona

The hardware savings are enormous with the new GPS kit at less than $10,000, compared to the old kit, which was over $70,000. But the ongoing reduction of labor costs is even more valuable over time.

Program Manager, Enmapp / Calgary, Canada

The Arrow 100® shows me time after time how extremely accurate the measurements were that they [the original boundary markers] have made.

Co-Founder, MittNorr Skog & Fasteight AB / Östersund, Sweden

Now it feels like we’re working smarter. The data-capture process is much more efficient, faster and accurate. If we can accurately locate and record the position of our assets, then we are able to deal with any problems quickly and efficiently.

GIS and Positioning Technical Consultant, Northumbrian Water / England

Without this metadata, it was impossible to tell which locations were right or wrong. Many of our facilities were not in the right spots, so you didn’t know what data to trust.

GIS Supervisor, Sulphur Springs Valley Electric Co-operative / Wilcox, Arizona

I’ve been running a small forestry business for 3 years, in the deep forests of mid Sweden. I’m really interested in technical solutions that really work. I spent an awful lot of hours about one year ago to find the best equipment for our work with boundaries. I am REALLY satisfied with the [Arrow 100®], so I decided to purchase—it has exceeded my expectations!

Co-Founder, MittNorr Skog & Fasteight AB / Östersund, Sweden

Now everyone can see where the assets are located, accurately, thanks to ArcGIS Online and the Arrow Gold®. This frees up our water system experts to do their own work, because they no longer have to answer calls to help people locate assets. Everyone has access to the same information.

GIS Crew Lead, Rockett Special Utility District / Texas

I tested an Eos receiver myself and paired it with an Apple iPad® and ArcGIS Collector and was impressed with how well this suited our needs.

Project Manager, The DDS Companies / New York

Two of the other receivers we tested could not withstand the harsh Alberta climate. Now we’ve got 22 Arrow Gold® receivers out there, and they’ve been working flawlessly.

GIS Manager, Apex Utilities / Alberta, Canada

The Eos technical support we required for interfacing with Collector was outstanding.

GIS Manager, Apex Utilities / Alberta, Canada

Paired with an Arrow Gold®, both units communicate to the phone or tablet and utilizing Eos Locate™, we’re able to capture a precise three points of the assets below ground within ArcGIS, and this can be easily exported out to AutoCAD Civil 3D as a 3D network. It’s a game-changer solution.

GIS Practice Leader, OHM Advisors / Michigan

The Arrow 100® gains access to far more satellites by supporting all four constellations, which means higher accuracy and reduced downtime.

Woodlands Operations Supervisor, Tolko Industries / Alberta, Canada

I use the Arrow Gold® and the Arrow 200® units to map streams, wetlands, invasive plant species, potential bat–roost trees and more.

Wetlands & Permitting Manager, Environmental Solutions & Innovations, Inc. / USA

If our RTK connection is lost, the Arrow Gold® maintains our RTK corrections thanks to the SafeRTK® feature.

Technical Cadastral Coordinator, ConHydra / Peru

I think it’s great that the Arrow 100® achieves such great accuracy results in the forest or under other difficult conditions.

Mobile GIS & GNSS Consultant , GI GeoInformatik / Germany

Every pixel within the drone image has its own XYZ value, based on the Arrow telling the software exactly where the GCPs are. This lets us get highly accurate positions and, importantly, elevation data.
