"Map Point user found this a Great Solution"
5/5
What do you like best about MapBusinessOnline?

We used map Point for years and desperatelly 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.

What do you dislike about MapBusinessOnline?

Map Point did a couple things that were useful that this tool does not do, like being able to mouse click and drag over push pins then export those pins to excel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Geoffrey Ives of MapBusinessOnline

Jay,

We greatly appreciate your review. It is always good to get a sense of what the product might be missing - your MapPoint data-gathering process is worth considering.

In your review, you mentioned MapPoint’s ability to gather point data from the map. In MapBusinessOnline, we do provide spatial searches. You could, under Search Tools, select a polygon or free-form draw tool to gather the points for marketing lists and export. Read more here in our inline blog under Spatial Search.

Thanks,

Geoff Ives - President

"Powerful mapping program that gives you control to customize"
4.5/5
What do you like best about MapBusinessOnline?

The ability to import any list of data and use in the map. The program gives us complete control of our data and the map views. The learned curve is low and the program is pretty easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MapBusinessOnline?

The user interface / look and feel is a little behind other apps with more modern looks. But the ability to customize and import data far outweighs the user interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Geoffrey Ives of MapBusinessOnline

Chris,

Thank you for taking the time to review MapBusinessOnline. We will continue to improve the application based on user feedback. Yours is appreciated.

"MapBusinessOnline has been the best mapping software for our Franchise business."
5/5
What do you like best about MapBusinessOnline?

One of the biggest advantages over other mapping solutions is the speed at which I can generate Territories. What took hours in the old days, I can now do in less than an hour. I also appreciate how I can use slaes data to create heat maps that are invaluable when analyzing franchisee's overall effectiveness in their market. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MapBusinessOnline?

If I had to have a negative, I would say the 200 map limit of the plan I am on. I can use them up pretty fast, and I am always having to delete old maps. I would love the ability to archive maps on my harddrive and re-import them so I am not having to start from scratch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Geoffrey Ives of MapBusinessOnline

Mark,

Thank you so much for your kind words. You clearly understand why we're seeing a lot of franchise interest.

One suggestion I have for you is to create My Template maps when you create a significant business map or territory map. After you're done editing a map, just make sure to drop down to the My Template folder and save that map there. Then you can always use that template map as a starting point for other maps.

I use map templates all the time when I'm constructing business maps. There are articles on templates in the blog you can search for. We can always provide a web demo too. Just request a demo through the contact button.

Thanks again.

"Mapping Software for the Average Professional"
4.5/5
What do you like best about MapBusinessOnline?

MBO makes me look like a GIS whiz. I evaluated several mapping software packages back in 2018, and concluded on MBO with no hesitation. I needed to create territories for a new salesforce I was supporting, and was able to do so in no time. Adding zip codes, removing zips from an existing territory - all of which very easy with this tool. I also handle many analytics and my clientele likes viewing where the business is geographically. Heat maps, plotting data points, where does the competition exist, etc. - all of which easily mapped. Yes, I use data visualization tools Tableau and MS Power BI - and still believe that MBO is superior to them. I've renewed my subscription every year since 2018. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MapBusinessOnline?

In order to become a regularly-used tool within the life sciences space, the company needs to find a way to replicate a salesforce. It is easy enough to group zip codes into 1 territory, but you cannot group multiple territories into a district, region, or area. In life sciences, the hierarch is Area > Region > District > Territory. And, there are also hybrid territories that exist - in which 1 hybrid covers 2 or more territories. It is these additional layers where MBO is weak. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Geoffrey Ives of MapBusinessOnline

Thank you for your review of MapBusinessOnline.

Be sure to read about hierarchical territory creation in our blog or help documentation. MapBusinessOnline supports creating and managing territories, regions, and divisions.

"Fantastic Software"
5/5
What do you like best about MapBusinessOnline?

If you're looking for software that can create territories, overlay multiple layers of data, and pinpoint locations...this is it. This cloud based software is very easy to use and understands actual addresses, zip codes and SCFs, unlike some other programs that rely strickly on lat and long. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MapBusinessOnline?

The software is not inexpensive and allows only limited sharing with those that do not have a license. There are also limits to plotable locations, business list searches and routing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Geoffrey Ives of MapBusinessOnline

Thank you so much for your kind review.

Limits on services are based on the paid-for web services we compile to provide the overall business mapping service to the client.

Thank you,
