### "An excellent replacement for traditional addresses and postcodes" — 5.0/5

> **david** | *14 February 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love how easy it is to use what3words and the fact that I can easily locate customer properties to within a couple of meters rather than relying on a postcode which often takes me to the wrong property.
> 
> **Cons**: I would like it if more people were aware of it and if it became as standardised as the UK postcode currently is.
> 
> I have been using what3words for many years most commonly for when visiting customers regularly I will save the what3words for their address so that I can easily find their property without having to think about it.
