OrderPad Software Upgrades Its Mobile Sales Management Software to Include Powerful New Mapping Technology That Helps Companies Reduce Fuel Usage

(PRWEB) November 19, 2009 -- OrderPad Software, Inc., developers of OrderPad, the leading field and mobile sales management software optimized for Tablet PCs, today announced it has upgraded its popular software suite to include powerful new routing and scheduling functionality to support their environmental initiatives.

The OrderPad suite of products have been specifically designed to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of the entire sales organization – from sales reps to corporate executives – through powerful, yet simple-to-use software optimized for the Tablet PC. OrderPad manages the entire sales process all from a single device while seamlessly integrating with existing ERP and other back-end systems and software applications.

With the inclusion of OrderPad Mapping, field and mobile sales reps will operate even more efficiently by reducing travel times and fuel costs, while increasing customer satisfaction and profitability. OrderPad Mapping’s advanced routing and navigation allows field and mobile sales reps to plan their day based on the most efficient, timesaving and fuel-saving route available, whether online or disconnected from the corporate network and the Internet. This means reps spend more time servicing customers and less time behind the wheel.

Sales reps simply “drag and drop” customers’ names to any given day on their route plan to instantly generate estimated miles they will travel and how many hours they will spend driving and visiting customers. OrderPad will map out these visits using the most efficient route and provide detailed driving directions. Sales reps may change the anticipated visit duration or allow OrderPad to estimate it based on past visits.

OrderPad Mapping’s key benefits include:

-    Reduced windshield time and miles driven

-    Reduced fuel costs as well as wear and tear on vehicles

-    Cuts carbon emissions

-    Instant access to detailed driving directions to each location

-    Allows reps to update routes in real time as circumstances dictate

-    Better accountability for time sales reps spend in the field

-    Time saved driving allows for more time spent in the field visiting customers

-    Increased frequency of customer visits

“Our customers are always on the lookout for ways to operate more efficiently and they strive to be better environmental stewards” said Adam Perlow, CEO of OrderPad Software, Inc. “Reducing the time field salespeople spend in their cars ends up being a double win. The company reduces its environmental impact while increasing sales.”
