Learn more

You would like to see the distribution of customers or prospects in a specific territory. With Sugar you can create a filter in the accounts module to list the customers in a specific territory. wMaps can display the result of that list as pushpins on a map.

You have a new prospective account and would like to get some geographic context and take a look at their office building. wMaps can produce a map that can be zoomed in all the way to the aerial photo detail of the building or location in question.

You are planning to travel in your sales territory and would like to plan the best sequence of account visits. From a filtered list in Sugar, select the specific accounts you would like to visit. wMaps can generate optimal directions and display the directions on a map. The directions can be emailed to your phone to integrate with maps on the phone.

You are visiting a customer and would like to see a list of the closest prospective customers or other customers so you can plan some additional stops. wMaps will calculate the relative distance between the current record and all other records, and then show you the closest ones. From the list of closest records you can place them on a map or generate optimum driving directions.

You have generated a map or directions and want to be able to send them to your own phone or a colleagues phone. Any wMap can be sent to your phone via email. In the top right of a map or directions screen there will be an Send via Email button. Press this link to generate an email with a link to the map that can be opened on your phone.

You need to further modify your generated maps with custom maps or areas. Maps can now be customized with objects such as lines, shapes and pushpins. All modifications can be saved and accessed for later use.

You need fast access to a record's location on a map. A wMaps field can be added inside Records View, which displays a contact's position on a map.

An alternative to the wMaps field is creating a dashlet, which also displays a contact's position on a map.

You need to get yourself familiarized with a location's surroundings before travelling for a meeting. The wMaps dashlet can be configured to display the Street Side of a location as well.

You can create and customize as many maps as needed. These maps can then be saved, and accessed at any time from Sugar.
