Track time spent at customer site
After sales visits, you generate daily or weekly customer visit reports to inform your manager on how much of time you spent with each customer and share meeting notes. With Vtiger 360 for field sales, you can check in and out of customer site in real time – giving your manager an accurate picture of time spent on each customer meeting. For customer events, Vtiger lets sales managers set Geo-fence radius within which you can check-in to an event. Once the event is complete, you can mark the event as held and make a quick note @mentioning your manager. This process eliminates after hour reporting and allows your manager to auto-generate agent check-in report regularly.
