Google Maps in vTiger

We recently embedded Google Maps for a client and it turned out to be quite a nice customization. Of course, this allows you to immediately find the location of a contact, but even better is that you can also find the location of other contacts nearby. This makes it easy for your sales reps to get from place to place without driving back and forth across town.

First, select a contact and click the Map button:

Then, a map will display with all nearby contacts listed on the left. In this screenshot, I've filtered out everything but qualified leads:
With this client, we set the default map radius to 1 mile. . The queries would take forever if we set the radius any larger, because they have so many contacts. All in all, a good example of the incredibly powerful things you can do with vTiger. Click here for more details about Boru's vTiger customization.
