As you’re no doubt aware, Microsoft has discontinued its MapPoint software, which gave sales, marketing, delivery and partner teams a clearer view of their customers and prospects.
To help you make a smooth transition from this software to a new, equally powerful solution, we’ve compiled what we consider to be the best applications and software to use in place of MapPoint.
Moovago
Moovago is the best alternative for sales reps who need to carry out sales rounds and have access to a map of their customers and prospects.
You’ll be able to create and optimize routes directly in the cloud-based application. What’s more, this French application brings together all the tools used by sales reps: reports, reminders, reminders, tasks, appointments and sales revenue.
Thanks to reminders, you’ll know which companies to visit, and you can also choose your route according to sales revenue opportunities.
Moovago is also available as a mobile application.
Qgis

Bing Maps
The Bing search engine integrates its own mapping tool. For web users, the prospect of accessing such a service without having to switch search engines is a real advantage. Bing Maps makes extensive use of 3D cartography to offer users an immersive, interactive experience.
Optimize visibility by helping customers/prospects find their addresses quickly, with the route planner provided by the platform, helping users find their way around thanks to a detailed visualization of the route to take based on departure and arrival addresses.

Google Maps
It’s a great option for fantastic, if basic, routing functionality. Google invests unimaginable sums in this application to ensure it’s as accurate as possible, and the prevalence of applications built on top of it shows just how reliable it is.
