Important Update: Bing Maps Licensing Changes

For Immediate Release 

A significant change is coming to the Bing Maps functionality within the iQ software application. The current enterprise mapping platform license, which enables address visualisation through Bing Maps, is being discontinued. 

Key Points: 

• Current Situation: Bing Maps integration allows address visualisation in iQ software 

• Change Required: New per-company licensing agreement needed for continued access 

• Action Needed: Companies requiring ongoing Bing Maps access must obtain a new license key. Effective action date: February 2025 

• Cost: £25 per month, billing effective June 2025 

• Implementation: Our support team will assist with new license installation 

What This Means for Users 

If your company utilises the Bing Maps feature and wishes to maintain access, you'll need to opt in for the new license. For those who don't use or require this functionality, no action is necessary—the service will be automatically discontinued. 

Financial Impact 

The new licensing fee will be incorporated into existing support contracts. We've negotiated to minimise the financial impact, setting the fee at £25 per month (effective June 2025).
