Your Mapline Alternative
If you’re looking for the best mapping software for your business, it’s important to look at both the features and the overall value various platforms offer. Mapline and MapBusinessOnline are both powerful business mapping programs that can be used by organizations to build sales territories, optimize routes and plan for future growth. However, a closer inspection of the two programs reveals that MapBusinessOnline is the smarter choice for any organization with advanced mapping needs. Here’s why.
MapBusinessOnline Is More Flexible
Business mapping software may integrate seamlessly with your CRM platform. Mapline is designed to work most effectively with Excel spreadsheet data.
While this is a useful feature if you use that platform exclusively, most businesses store information and intelligence in multiple programs and databases. In addition to Excel support, MapBusinessOnline works better with a wider range of programs, so you can enjoy the benefits of its advanced functionality whether you run Salesforce, QuickBooks, ACT! or other enterprise software.
MapBusinessOnline Is the Value Leader
For many businesses, the best mapping software will be the most affordable. In this regard, MapBusinessOnline is once again the clear choice. Mapline and MapBusinessOnline both offer several subscription packages based on your needs. Mapline's most affordable option costs $330/year and allows you to create up to 20 maps. However, to draw custom shapes and territories, including heat maps, you must upgrade to the Pro package, which costs $660 annually.
MapBusinessOnline starts at $500.00/year and includes full support for up to 200 saved maps, as well as premium editing and drawing tools not available on Mapline’s basic package.
For that same base price of $500.00 per year Map Business Online allows up to 250,000 location records (or pins) per map. MapLine's most expensive option only enables up to 15,000 pins per map – a severe restriction for serious business mappers.
More than just a more robust Mapline alternative, MapBusinessOnline is one of the best territory platforms available today offering full featured territory map capabilities such as regions and division support. See it in action for yourself by signing up for a free one-month trial.

"MapBusinessOnline one of the most powerful tools I have as a Regional Channel Manager. It’s a difficult task to visually represent the vast amount of data that I have to present to my customers and team members. MBO makes it easy to represent, configure, and manipulate the data on to an effective map. A picture is worth a thousand words, and MBO allows me to create a perfect picture."

"I have had the pleasure of using MapBusinessOnline for the past 5 years and it is an excellent and affordable tool for my clients. I am a franchise consultant, and many of my clients are just starting to get into franchising. The first main question many of them have is they don’t know the demographics around their current location, so they don’t know how to create territories for their franchisees. I am able to easily utilize MapBusinessOnline to draw a prototype territory around their existing location, do a deep dive into the many different demographics that MapBusinessOnline offers, and help the client determine the basics of their new territories, including mileage, population, household count, purchasing habits and age distributions. This tool has been so helpful that many of our clients obtain their own accounts as they begin to sell franchises and grow their business. Thank you, MapBusinessOnline, for providing such a helpful tool that is affordable and easy to use!"
