I drove through Austria using HERE Sygic Truck and it did good job so I am wondering about Germany now...
I have never used TomTom navi before but downloaded 1.4 TomTom and installed some maps, been comparing it with Google Maps routing hmm not bad but still wondering what are you experiences driving though Germany using TomTom or Here and which navigation? I prefer Sygic Truck but I am open to any suggestions.....
Thx

Hi, So my suggestion. Sygic developers are from my country and I know the people there. Route calculation algorithm was historically the best at Sygic Truck version 13.2.7, but that's it. Functioning as such does not have the iGO Primo. Algorithm for calculating routes in iGO primo is fine but with TeleAtlas maps, not Here. Of course TeleAtlas does not know house numbers. As for the TomTom GO, has in my opinion the best route calculation does not know the address, navigate well. In this go, I would go to version 1.9 or 1.8. So much for me after being tested navigations.

Yes I was really surprised by TomTom mobile routing, everything else is terrible, POIs base, POI import (useless) speedcam but routing and graphics is amazing. I guess maps they use are not the same they send out to iGO and others...
Sygic Truck 13.2.7 has great routing but sometimes it goes around....that is why I am using 13.5.3 (Fast routing) and gives great results.
iGO is my love but God it makes so many mistakes and it does provide good route but the problem is which one is it?? If I know which route is the best I would not need a navigation :)
So in a way I combine many, so far Sygic Truck proved to be the best and lately I am testing TomTom Go Mobile.
Thank you

OK. I have been "buried" on TomTom PND navi navcore to 9.5, where everything was great.
No Current navigation will not catch except addresses. For me the Tomtom routing number 1 and the other Igo.
PS: Speedcam from tomtom go mobile is great, while you turn on internet on mobile. Cau

Happen to drive in northern germany.
I found tomtom map has more details in the countryside. But on highway it couse primo to crush once.
While HERE map gave more smooth navigation on the major roads.

I am in Germany on (sort of) regular bases. I always used TomTom maps wherever I have been (Bavaria, Rheinland-Pfalz, Hessen, ...)
I have good experience with TomTom maps and they never crashed.
Better said: 9.6.13.267029 regularly crashed on highways, proposing a detour caused by (to expected) traffic circumstances. With the very same maps, 9.6.13.405512 ran flawlessly, even proposing detours!! Never had a crash since.
And the most important, I never got lost. ;)

In Germany (Southern Parts) I prefer the HERE Maps. For me they are more accurate than TomTom Maps. The same for the maps in the USA, especially Hawaii. Found all routes and got no detours.
