I love the app! But I have a few thousand addresses. Is there an alternative?

I would love to show a world map on my web site that shows where my customers are. I see warnings that CW doesn't like more than a few hundred addresses. Will it one day? Is there another app that does what CW does?

On a related note - I see how to export the existing data for bulk editing. I'm supposed to re-import it - but I don't see an "import" button. Is this because I haven't registered, or must all importing be done by pasting data in 100 records at a time?

Thanks in advance!

We are running one map with close to 1,000 markers on it (http://www.communitywalk.com/tokyo) to give you an idea how CW performs.

 

I haven’t seen any similar applications that handle large numbers of markers better. From my understanding the function required to do this is clustering and using this function with large numbers of markers (ie 1,000s) uses a high level of system resources.

 

Regarding importing, under bulk data it is “Process Data” and you can only cut and paste in the data. There is a strict limit of 100 markers at a time and even then you can have problems with timing out.
