Customer Success Stories

"We quickly grew from a one location small-business to a franchised business with 8 locations across the country. After selling our first few franchises, I realized I needed a way to map out a potential franchisee's territory. Initially I just wanted to be able to create territories based on drive time from an address, which is easy to do with MapBusinessOnline. What I didn't know I needed was the ability to export census data, including information on other dog related business, which is very helpful!"

"We used MapPoint for years and desperately needed a replacement solution. This one fits the bill and is actually much better in many ways. Especially in a team environment. We do logistics with routing technicians to jobs for roll outs. This helps our team working thousands of sites over multi month projects. Also, easy to manage licenses for users.

Example business case would be taking 3000 locations, and planning how you will have multiple different technicians visit an area or region of these locations over 3 months. Each visit will take x amount of time. They only work certain hours of the day, and you have to plan in drive time, so the day actually makes sense and the route is efficient."

"I just wanted to say thank you for this amazing mapping tool! I've tried a number of sales territory map solutions and this is by far the best. I just (finally!) switched over from MapPoint and this is so much better, I wish I had switched sooner. Your videos and blog are also really helpful, though most things I have figured out on my own. It looks like I also have a lot more to discover as I explore the data visualization tools. Thanks again!"

"MapBusinessOnline is the only tool available that allowed our team the ability to create visual territories by zip code and then export the data into a spreadsheet. We were able to then populate our ERP system with that data/logic and create automated rules based on customer address zip codes. We cut out the manual process of inside sales entering incorrect freight delivery zones upon sales order entry. Now when sales orders are entered, we automatically populate the correct delivery zones that MBO allowed us to create. Ultimately, this is saving our company money and improving efficiency when shipping material to customers.

I highly recommend MBO, and we only have scratched the surface with what the solution can do."

"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!"

We couldn't be happier with the switch. Excellent ease of use. I was able to just open up the program and go. It's very user friendly.

I didn't really expect to get anything in return, but they emailed me back within the hour, and I was only a trial member! Very pleased."
