Sales teams have been drawing circles on maps since the dawn of territory planning. Most still are—literally. Spreadsheets, sticky notes, and guesswork masquerading as strategy.
Then there are companies like MAGURA Bosch Parts & Services who decided to stop playing territory roulette and start making data-driven decisions.
Their secret? MappyField 365—the geo-mapping solution that’s changing how businesses think about field operations, customer relationships, and market expansion.
The Challenge Every Sales Manager Knows
Manuel Schmied knows the pain. As CRM Process Manager at MAGURA Bosch Parts & Services GmbH & Co. KG, he’s seen what happens when sales territories are more art than science.
Overlap confusion. Missed opportunities. Field reps driving past better prospects to hit arbitrary zones. Revenue leaking through cracks nobody even knew existed.
Sound familiar? You’re not alone. According to SMA research, companies with ineffective territory planning achieve 15% lower sales objectives than average, while effective territory planners achieve 14% higher—creating a 30% performance gap.
For a $10M business, that’s the difference between hitting targets and missing $1.5M in potential revenue.
Why MappyField 365 Hit Different
When MAGURA implemented MappyField 365, something clicked that hadn’t happened with other solutions. Manuel puts it this way: “Categorization of pins by different colors. There are many functions and displays available out of the box, along with configuration options.”
Translation? The tool actually works the way sales teams think—visually, intuitively, and without forcing you to become a data scientist.
But here’s what Manuel didn’t mention in his review: MappyField 365 integrates seamlessly across all Microsoft Dynamics 365 modules. Your sales data, customer service records, marketing insights, and field operations data no longer reside in silos. They live on one intelligent map.
Real Results, Not Marketing Promises
The proof isn’t in features; it’s in outcomes. For MAGURA, MappyField 365 delivered exactly what Manuel needed: “visit planning and sales performance management.”
Those two features represent hours saved every week, routes optimized for maximum efficiency, and performance metrics that guide decision-making instead of just filling reports.
When your field team can see their entire territory, prospects, customers, competitors, and opportunities in one visual interface, everything changes. Route planning becomes strategic. Customer prioritization becomes data-driven. Territory disputes become conversations about optimization, not politics.
AppJetty Support
Here’s where most software companies fail: after the sale. Manuel’s experience? “Quick support for problems and new requirements.”
That’s not an accident—that’s strategy. AppJetty built MappyField 365 with ongoing partnership in mind, not one-time transactions.
Need custom configurations? We handle it. Industry-specific requirements? We’ve seen it before. Integration challenges? We solve them and then integrate the solution into future updates so that other customers can benefit.
The Honest Assessment
Manuel’s review includes something rare in customer testimonials: honest feedback about areas for improvement.
His overall rating? 4.5 out of 5 for out-of-the-box functionality. That’s exceptional for enterprise software, where “works as advertised” is often wishful thinking.
This transparency matters. It shows MAGURA did their homework, and it shows MappyField 365 delivers real value, not just marketing promises.
What This Means for Your Business
MAGURA isn’t unique. They faced the same territory management challenges that plague businesses across various industries, including automotive parts, manufacturing, professional services, distribution, and others.
The difference? They stopped accepting “good enough” and started demanding solutions that solve problems.
If your sales team is still using spreadsheets to plan territories, if your field reps are guessing at optimal routes, if your customer data exists everywhere except where your sales team can use it, you’re leaving money on the table.
The Microsoft AppSource Advantage
Finding MappyField 365 on Microsoft AppSource isn’t a coincidence; it’s validation. Microsoft’s marketplace standards ensure solutions integrate properly, perform reliably, and deliver genuine business value.
For companies already invested in the Microsoft ecosystem, this means faster implementation, seamless data flow, and unified user experiences across all business applications.
Ready to Stop Guessing?
Territory management shouldn’t be guesswork. Customer visits shouldn’t be random. Sales performance shouldn’t depend on luck.
MAGURA figured this out. They moved from territory chaos to strategic clarity with MappyField 365.
Your sales team deserves better than sticky notes and spreadsheets. Your customers deserve optimized service territories. Your bottom line demands data-driven decisions.
