"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."

"We've tried the REST now we are using the BEST. After searching and trying other mapping programs for our delivery operations team and finding that we just couldn't get all the features that we required, we finally found MapBusinessOnline. Not only did it have all the features we needed including Longitude/Latitude and optimizing delivery routes, but it provided us tons of other bells and whistles. MBO proved to be a superb tool for our operations team to create routes and territories with the click of a few buttons while also allowing our reporting team to make beautiful maps that help our executive team visualize the story the data was telling. We are using this for the 2nd year in a row and will be renewing when it is time again. We pride ourselves at offering cutting edge applications to our millions of readers and subscribers worldwide and love that MBO helps us stay ahead of the technology curve by continuing to update their product and features. The release of MBO for the Desktop was a great addition and only helps make using the product even easier. To the staff at MBO — Keep up the great work!"
