1. What is portatour® Anywhere?
portatour® is your personal route-planner software, trusted by sales reps, field sales force, consultants, and service team members. portatour® schedules calls to A, B, and C-priority customers in
the right frequency – while also optimizing the driving route. portatour® is available on any device with
a web browser: On a Desktop-PC in the (Home-)Office, as well as on the way on a notebook, tablet and
smartphone. The data is automatically synchronized.
How does portatour® work?
To create an optimized sales-route portatour® uses following input:
- Customer data . Each customer is different: business hours, call frequency
and the estimated call duration will be
considered individually by portatour®.
- Appointments entered into the portatour® calendar : fixed customer appointments, business appointments, personal
errands during the day and important
phone calls.
- You decide how to work: When does
your working day start? Where do you
start? When do you take breaks? How
long do you work? Do you consider an
overnight stay on the way and where are
your favorite hotels?
- Using digital maps at house number
detail, which are updated regularly, portatour® calculates a distance matrix containing the fastest routes between all
customers.
At the push of a button portatour® calculates within a few seconds an optimized route for up to 4
weeks in advance, from millions of possible solutions, using an intelligent algorithm. portatour® takes
care of automatically selecting customers that are to be visited according to call interval, while optimizing the route at the same time. Appointments from your calendar and customers that you definitely
want to visit are of highest priority in this selection.
The sales-route plan presents all customers to be visited with exact time slots and the driving route for
each day. You may personalize this schedule by excluding proposed calls or adding additional appointments. Let portatour® optimize your updated schedule.
Start your tour! After each customer call enter an optional call report at the push of a button.
