Everything You Need to
Scale Success
Your CRM stores the data, but SPOTIO powers the field activity that grows it—giving reps more than standalone mapping, canvassing, or retail execution tools ever can. Instead of stopping at routes, check-ins, or store audits, SPOTIO adds stronger territory management, clearer rep visibility, and guided follow-up sequences that consistently move deals forward.
Works Seamlessly with the Tools You Already Use
SPOTIO connects to your existing CRM and tools, so your field data automatically flows where it needs to go. No rip-and-replace, no training headaches—just better data in the systems you’re already using.

FAQs
Use this hub to narrow your shortlist and align your team. Start with the overview table to see which tools fit your team size and use case, then click into the detailed comparison pages for a closer look at workflows, integrations, and support.
These comparisons focus on the most common alternatives SPOTIO replaces. If your current tool isn’t shown, you can still use the table as a checklist of what a modern field sales platform should include, then talk with our team about how SPOTIO would stack up against your specific setup.
You can use SPOTIO as a basic CRM if you don’t already have one. But typically, SPOTIO integrates with your existing CRM to power what happens in the field—routes, visits, and activities as your “system of action”. Your CRM remains your “system of record.” Reps get a purpose-built field workspace and ops/leadership keep reporting and governance in the tools they already trust.
SPOTIO is best suited for growing field teams with 5 or more reps. Smaller teams may be able to manage with lighter-weight tools, but as soon as you need consistent territory coverage, standardized activity tracking, and real reporting, SPOTIO becomes a meaningful upgrade.
SPOTIO offers practical features that solve real-world sales challenges—like advanced route planning (including pre-planned routes), call recording for training, automatic merging of duplicates for clean data, customizable mobile app layouts, flexible user roles, and custom naming for workflows. These thoughtful features help sales teams overcome common bottlenecks and accelerate results.
