什么是适合初创公司的价格合理的地图API解决方案？ [英] What is a reasonly priced map API solution for a startup?

问题描述

我一直在用Google Maps和精彩的rails插件开发我的应用程序，期望在我的应用程序投入生产时，商业许可证不会太贵。

然后我发现它每年花费$ 10,000，到目前为止没有例外。

当您的网站成功时，支付无限使用的费用并不是一个可怕的代价，但对于我们这些试图从头开始构建一些东西的人来说，这是一个沉重的代价价格支付。我已经看过Bing和雅虎，但他们对于定价是多么乐观。在这个事实上，我不得不抛弃我的好轨道插件YM4R谷歌地图...

有人在那里使用地图API解决方案，不花钱一个胳膊和一条腿开始在商业方面？我不介意不使用插件，我只需要一些可以工作并且在开始时便宜的产品。 解决方案

CloudMade 已被推荐在上一个问题。看看他们的定价。

I've been developing my application with Google Maps and the wonderful rails plugin for it, expecting to find that when I put my app into production that the commercial licensing wouldn't be too expensive.

Then I found out it cost $10,000/year, no exceptions so far.

That's not a terrible price to pay for unlimited usage when your site becomes successful, but for those of us trying to build something from the ground up, that's a hefty price to pay. I've looked at Bing and Yahoo but they're very wishy-washy with what ballpark the pricing is. That on top of the fact I have to ditch my nice rails plugin YM4R for Google maps...

Is anyone out there using a map API solution that doesn't cost an arm and a leg to get started with in a commercial aspect? I don't mind not using a plugin, I just need something that will work and is cost affordable in the beginning.
