Easy to Maintain

Nobody wants another system to manage.
We'll do the hard work so you can focus on your students.

We'll import your partners

We'll take your partner data from whatever system you're currently using and import it into Map Buddy.

We'll update your partners

We'll keep your partner data up to date as well, whether it be a few small updates a month or an automated system to continuously import updates.

One map for everything

Embed a Map Buddy map in your website so that you don't need to manage two separate partner directories.

Customizable

We'll work with you to get you the features you need and to fit within your budget.

Contact: Students can contact your partners using phone, email, or even linking to their contact page.
Social Media: Many of your partners likely have social media accounts. Link students directly to them.
Custom Links: Provide custom links to your existing website.
Selective: Choose exactly which organizations and data appear on your map.
