How do users typically consume services provided through ArcGIS Enterprise?

Users typically consume services provided through ArcGIS Enterprise through a variety of interactive and accessible platforms, prominently including web applications, ArcGIS Online, and client applications like ArcGIS Pro. This diverse array of consumption methods is designed to take advantage of the rich functionalities and capabilities of ArcGIS, facilitating real-time data analysis, visualization, and collaboration.

Web applications allow users to interact with mapping and analytics services without needing to install specialized software, making geographic information accessible through standard web browsers. ArcGIS Online enhances this experience by providing a cloud-based environment where users can share, modify, and collaborate on geospatial data and maps. Additionally, client applications like ArcGIS Pro offer advanced desktop capabilities for professional users who require extensive tools for spatial analysis, 3D visualization, and complex geoprocessing workflows.

In contrast, other options are limited because they represent narrower or outdated ways of consuming geographic information. Printed maps, while still valuable for static representation, do not allow for the dynamic interaction that modern GIS applications provide. Exclusive reliance on mobile applications, while useful for specific fieldwork contexts, does not encompass the full range of service access available through ArcGIS. Similarly, compiled reports, while informative, offer a static presentation of data that lacks the interactive and analytical capabilities offered
