A FAQ on that page titled are there upfront costs lists Maps Advanced at $150, also billed annually. Both Advanced numbers stay here. Standard Maps contracts are 12 months. Maps is not included in Sales Cloud. SPOTIO's plans page shows no per-user dollar at any headcount. Knockdesk Full desk is on the pricing page. The seat math below multiplies only those published rates. Salesforce Maps sits on top of a CRM seat. Salesforce Maps Advanced is left out of the multiply because the same page lists two figures.
| Seats | Maps $75 annual | SPOTIO | Knockdesk Full desk |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10 | $750 a month billed annually | Not stated publicly | See pricing |
| 25 | $1,875 a month billed annually | Not stated publicly | See pricing |

Territory and routing
Both named products talk about coverage as territory, not as a metaphor for a single block. Salesforce Maps visualizes Salesforce data, auto-assigns leads from location, and builds automated routes. Drawing a turf pack is not stated on the Maps pricing page. SPOTIO lists territory creation on B2B and B2C and says you create boundaries. Route planning is in the B2B list. The platform page says a route handles up to 150 stops.
Salesforce Maps on the org
The job is a map of Salesforce records. Routes and lead assignment stay on those records. The add-on does not replace a field desk that cuts turf and logs the knock.
SPOTIO boundaries
B2B and B2C both list territory creation and hierarchies. The plans page says create boundaries and assign reps. B2B adds route planning.
Knockdesk turf
Knockdesk draws a territory and cuts turf from it. Turf is the pack of work, not a synonym for the area. Book a walkthrough and we draw the first territory with you.

Book a WalkthroughThe track
Live Tracking Mobile
Salesforce retired Live Tracking Mobile. After that retirement, reps can no longer generate new geolocation data from that feature. Desktop Salesforce Maps continues. The standalone Maps mobile app was retired with it. Salesforce points field users to the Maps Mobile tab in the Salesforce mobile app, which does not support offline mode. That is a product fact, not a reason to treat the whole Maps add-on as discontinued.
What ended
Live Tracking Mobile subscriptions no longer generate new geolocation data. The standalone Maps mobile app is retired. Support, updates, and store availability for that app ended with it.
What continues
Desktop Maps continues. Maps is still sold at $75 billed annually. Consumer Goods Cloud subscriptions named on the Help pages continue.
The knock still has to exist
If the week is a door without signal, a map tab that needs a connection is the wrong tool. Knockdesk logs the visit offline on the same seat. SPOTIO states Download My Day on B2C.

AI and coaching
Do not treat a Salesforce map and a co-pilot as the same tool. Salesforce Maps does not list conversation coaching on the pricing page. SPOTIO describes DASH on the plan lists and does not attach a dollar. Knockdesk scores the recorded visit against your script after the knock. There is no live whisper.
Knockdesk coaching
Recording is opt-in on the knock. Coaching runs after the visit, against the script you already teach. It is on the Full desk seat, not an Advanced add-on.
Salesforce Maps
The pricing page is visualization, prioritization, and routes. Conversation coaching is not listed.
SPOTIO DASH
On the B2B and B2C lists as a field co-pilot for visit prep, voice or chat logging, and follow-up drafts, with the rep confirming before a save. Conversation coaching is not stated.

Book a WalkthroughSalesforce Maps
Who should pick Salesforce Maps
Pick Salesforce Maps when the accounts, the routes, and the manager's map have to remain Salesforce records. The FAQ says Maps is not included in a Sales Cloud license. Stay if desktop routing on the org is the whole job and you already accepted an annual add-on.
The record has to stay in Salesforce
Maps visualizes Salesforce data and builds routes on those records. A file export is a copy. Knockdesk will not write back to Salesforce.
You already own Sales Cloud
Budget the $75 add-on on top of the CRM seat. Confirm the bundle you actually buy. Maps is not included in a Sales Cloud license.
Desktop Maps is enough
Live Tracking Mobile is retired. If planners build routes on the desktop map and reps do not need that mobile track, the add-on can still be the tool.
You can live with an annual contract
Standard Maps contracts are 12 months, billed annually. There is no trial license on the FAQ.

Book a WalkthroughSPOTIO
Who should pick SPOTIO
Pick SPOTIO when you have five or more reps and you will take a quote for the B2B or B2C list they already printed. The win is the motion and the staffed onboarding, not a rate you can check tonight.
The roster is at least five
The plans page says SPOTIO is designed for teams of five or more field sales professionals. Below that, they are telling you the product is the wrong size.
You want B2B and B2C as named plans
You can point at a plan for territory-based account coverage or a plan for high-volume direct-to-home work. Both still require a quote.
You want their implementation manager
Every plan lists one. At 25 licenses or more they also list a dedicated customer success manager. The implementation cost varies and is explained on a consultation.
The job is the field plan, not the Salesforce add-on
SPOTIO is not a Sales Cloud mapping add-on. If the record has to stay in Salesforce, Maps is the point fit.
