Summary

CartoDB is being used by Startupxplore to create interactive maps of startups, investors, entrepreneurs, events, companies, and services. The platform has been integrated into the web app using CartoDB's API with OAuth for data synchronization. The use of CartoDB has enabled the creation of a streamlined process from signup to map visualization without writing code, and has provided features such as hover-over tooltips, interactive markers, and info windows with customizable fields. The platform is flexible enough to be used by both non-technical users and seasoned hackers, and provides an awesome user experience and great support.
