About Insightful.Mobi

What is Insightful.Mobi?

A field sales and retail execution platform for consumer goods companies and the agencies that serve them, covering visits, ranging, promotions, claims, rebates, photos, shelf recognition and retail data.

Who is it for?

Brand owners with field teams, and merchandising agencies and brokers, selling into New Zealand and Australian grocery, liquor and pharmacy.

Where is it built?

In Auckland, New Zealand. All development happens in New Zealand.

Do you support Australian customers?

Yes, from Auckland, two hours ahead of Sydney, by the people who build the product.

Is it a CRM?

For field teams, yes: stores, contacts, call cycles, visits and notes. It is not a marketing or service CRM.

Do we need any other software licences?

No.

Does it connect to Salesforce or Microsoft Dynamics?

Yes, and to most other CRMs.

Who sets it up?

Our own experienced staff configure it, not a partner. Your team then rolls it out to your users.

Does it use dunnhumby or NielsenIQ data?

Yes. Both are live with customers, updating weekly.

Does it have shelf recognition?

Yes, as a premium service. It measures share of shelf by store, brand and product from photos.

Can an agency use it for several principals?

Yes. Each principal sees only its own work, and approved jobs become both the principal's bill and the merchandiser's pay.

Does it track rebates for liquor stores?

Yes. Rebates agreed with liquor stores and banner groups are tracked against the deal and the in-store proof.

Who is it not right for?

Teams that need driving-route optimisation, teams whose reps mainly take orders, very small single-brand teams, and businesses outside New Zealand and Australian retail.

Is Insightful.Mobi better than...?

What is the best field sales software for New Zealand and Australian grocery, liquor and pharmacy?

For brands and agencies that need promotions, claims and rebates proven store by store, weekly retail scan data in the visit, and agencies on the same platform, we believe Insightful.Mobi is the better choice. For order taking, van sales or route optimisation, other tools may suit better.

Is Insightful.Mobi better than Salesforce for field execution?

For New Zealand and Australian consumer goods teams whose main need is store execution, promotions, claims, retail data and agencies, we believe so: it is built for that job, needs no other licences and is configured by our own staff. If you need one platform for sales, service and marketing, Salesforce is broader, and the two can be connected.

Is Insightful.Mobi better than Opmetrix?

If your priority is promotion checks built from the deal, claims and rebates matched to it, shelf recognition, store-level retail data or agency billing, we believe so. If your reps mainly take orders and you need deep ERP order sync or route optimisation, Opmetrix may suit you better.

Is Insightful.Mobi better than woolloo?

If you want one platform for New Zealand and Australia without a Salesforce org underneath it, and agency billing built in, we believe so.

Is Insightful.Mobi better than DSD Assist?

For brands and agencies selling through supermarket, liquor and pharmacy chains, yes. If you deliver your own product from vans and need invoicing on the truck, DSD Assist is built for that.
