Sometimes it's the little things that drive the adoption of enterprise software.  If the sales force wants their CRM system to provide an easier way to find their customers, then perhaps InfoGrow Corp.'s newly released CRM2Maps for Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011, will fill the need.

A free mapping tool that lets users map leads, accounts, and contacts inside Dynamics CRM 2011, CRM2Maps works inside CRM so sales reps can be more productive, the company said. With just one click, users can convert a CRM record into a map with street, image, or a bird's-eye view so they can save time when they plan their trips, according to the company. Users can also get detailed driving directions to the displayed location from any address.
