A nip in the air indicates not just the change in seasons but also the advent of celebrations. Happier times are on the way and what better way than to celebrate them with family, friends, music, dance, food, lights, and love?
Funnily, celebrations are also marked with a crack of something, viz, they go on till the crack of dawn, start with the cracking of champagne, lead to the cracking of joints the next day, and are accompanied by the cracking of firecrackers!
Firecrackers and fireworks are a part of many traditional celebrations across the globe. Be it in Argentina at midnight on Christmas Eve, in the USA on the 4th of July and the New Year, at the Burj Khalifa Light Show in Dubai, in India for the festival of lights- Diwali, in China for the Chinese New Year, the River Festival Day in Japan, and more! Maplytics by Inogic is a box full of fireworks in itself. Every feature has its own symbolism and uniqueness, and its results call for celebrations.
What? You can’t link a firecracker with a Maplytics feature? Oh, didn’t we see how every feature is a characteristic of a Zodiac sign? Then we also saw how each feature could be a Marvel character. Recently we checked many features being popular Halloween characters. Now let’s correlate them to the firecrackers!
Peony –> Proximity Search
Let us begin with one of the oldest crackers, Peony. It burns in a circle leaving no trails behind. The circles are geometrically perfect and have tiny stars sparkling in between. The circles formed are exactly like the circles formed on the map in proximity search. The stars in between resemble the pushpins falling within the proximity. Peony has been one of the earliest firecrackers. Radius Search within Maplytics has been one of the very firsts. Thus, Peony is bound to be it!
Catherine Wheel –> Optimized Routing
When ignited, the energy of a Catherine Wheel creates sparks and flame and causes the wheel to quickly rotate. This makes the display a lot more spectacular, vibrant, and pretty. The rotations are so tight that the path of the rotations seems planned. Only a feature with planned routes can relate to this beautiful planning. When a route plan for a day is plotted on the map, it has fixed turns and precise travel routes. Optimized Routing is the Catherine Wheel of the fireworks of Maplytics.
Skyrocket –> Optimized Routing
A skyrocket travels at a good speed and cracks through the clouds. It feels like it operates itself to travel through the best possible path and reach its ultimate goal. The magic is at its peak when the directions are orderly changed in this manner. An optimized route becomes the shortest in terms of the distance or travel time when it realigns itself avoiding highways, tolls, and traffic. Of course, it is bound to be a twin for Skyrocket as well!
Battery –> Auto Scheduling
A Battery is a string of crackers roped together in a line that burst in a continuous rhythm one after the other. It is scheduled down to seconds like the Auto Scheduling feature of Maplytics. The individual crackers in a battery are the individual meetings planned for the field reps. They happen in a synchronous manner.
Multi-shot Cakes –> Territory Management
Multiple balanced shots are created simultaneously in the sky at different places. They crack and appear at different locations forming a balanced network of fireworks. Territory Management helps to create balanced territories across the map as per the business requirements and areas of sale. A match made in the sky viewed on a map.
Crackle and Glitter –> Heat Maps
Clusters of fireworks break out at different intensities in the sky creating ripple effects with different intensities. The effect created in the sky looks a lot like the analytics offered using Heat Maps. The intensity of an element like Annual Revenue is visualized on the map with Heat Maps at various locations and analyzed for decision-making. There is seriously a lot in common!
Comet –> Real Time Tracking
A Comet leaves a long trail after it that lingers for a long time in the sky and can be viewed and traced clearly. The real-time travel tracks of a field rep can be viewed and traced by the managers and even saved for future use. Thus, branding Comet, a sibling of the Real Time Tracking feature.
There are multiple crackers in the sky during celebrations and multiple cracking features in the encompassing box of Maplytics. A regular use will help you identify the hidden commonalities and differences. Firecrackers bring happiness, joy, and celebration in Life and so does Maplytics within Dynamics 365 CRM in businesses.
