Alternatives to Garmin Connect

Former Member over 14 years ago

Hi everyone,

I am one of you who believe that the switch to Bing maps is absolutely ridiculous and I am currently looking into to alternative services where I can upload my GPX tracks for further analysis.

I wanted to suggest this thread as a place where we can collect everyone's alternative sites that can be used to replace Garmin Connect.

I am personally sick and tired of the lack of strategy, vision and technical execution from the Garmin bigwigs so lets all coordinate for the switch.

Regards.

Why do Garmin simply not have an options in the settings section of Garmin connect to allow users to decide what maps they would like to display?

I don't understand this, perhaps there is some licensing issue we are not aware of?

Using http://GarminSync.com you can automatically copy new (or old) activities from Garmin connect to RunKeeper. It is just a one time setup, the rest is automatic.

Garmin Connect does the minimum, there is no real interpretation of the data.

For instance, heart curve is really poor: same color, no color by area (60/70%, 80/90%, etc...) no average by area e.g. 30% of Time runner was in the area 70/80%...

So if you are not an expert, these information do not help you to progress.

No interpretation and no advice for progress are the major missing of gc

Gc is really poor

You can export tracks directly to your Garmin device
