Why You Should Attend the Session?

Around 80% of CRM data is linked to location! This geographical component within CRM data presents an untapped reservoir of potential that can help companies rethink everything from sales strategies to field service operations. Maplytics is designed to harness this potential, seamlessly integrating with Dynamics 365, Field Service, and Dataverse to provide real-time locational intelligence.

Imagine visualizing your entire sales pipeline on a map, pinpointing where your leads and customers are located. Or think about how much more efficient your field service operations could be if you had optimized travel routes for your technicians, allowing them to complete jobs faster while reducing costs. That’s exactly what Maplytics offers- a suite of features that reimagine how businesses can plan, analyze, and optimize using their CRM data. In this PSS session, you’ll explore:

  1. Visualizing Dynamics 365 CRM Records with Maplytics: Using customized and color-coded pushpins, Maplytics enables you to visualize records from your CRM directly on a map. This allows for better insight into customer distribution, performance trends, and service coverage areas.
  2. Balanced Territory Management: One of the core challenges many businesses face is ensuring their sales teams are assigned balanced territories. Maplytics helps define balanced territories based on multiple parameters, from customer density to travel times, ensuring that no rep is overburdened or underutilized.
  3. Auto-Scheduling for Field Reps: Field service scheduling can be complex, but Maplytics simplifies the process by auto-scheduling multi-day appointments based on the availability of both your field reps and clients. The plan of action factors in the skills of each rep, client needs, and travel efficiency to create optimized schedules.
  4. Route Optimization: One of the key features of Maplytics is its ability to optimize travel routes for field service agents. This results in minimized travel times, reduced fuel costs, and a more efficient workforce. Plus, ad-hoc changes to routes can be made in real-time, enabling flexibility in response to changing customer demands.

This PSS session will dive deep into these capabilities and more and offer real-world examples of how companies have used Maplytics to boost efficiency and cut costs. Whether you’re in sales, field service, or business intelligence, Maplytics has a feature set designed to meet your needs and your problems!

What’s New in Maplytics?

Maplytics isn’t just about visualizing data. It’s about turning that data into actionable insights. The software’s integration with Microsoft Dynamics 365, Power Apps, and Dataverse means that the maps and insights it provides are always up-to-date and deeply embedded in your workflows. During the session, the Inogic team will also cover new features and updates to the tool, including enhanced capabilities in territory management, auto-scheduling, and more for field activities.

The session will be presented by Gaurav Chatterjee, VP of Dynamics 365 Apps at Inogic, a thought leader in the CRM space. Gaurav’s presentation will help you understand how to unlock the full potential of your CRM data and transform it to build a geographical strategy for success.
