If you have reps and need territories assigned geographically then AlignStar is a great option. While we do not have reps in the field, I can see how powerful it can be in aligning territories not only based on estimated revenue or some other metric but also with rep location and driving in mind.

Pros
No answers on this topic
  • Detailed label options by ZIP code. I know the immediate impact of moving a single ZIP code.
  • Territory Optimizer. If we are having trouble figuring out the correct configuration for a particular area, its helpful to see what the program suggests. It may come up with something we hadn't thought of yet.
  • Custom layers. I am able to mark the previous territory boundaries, so if we want to undo a change, I know exactly where we started from.

Javelin is another tool that we have used to assist us with territory alignment. Great tool. AlignStar is on par with Javelin.
