why AlignStar?...
AlignStar is more than a mapping package. Different from other generic, off-the-shelf mapping packages, AlignStar is designed to evaluate and recommend changes to your territories to help make your business more efficient and more profitable. Other low-end, off-the-shelf products attempt to address these needs but fall short in both ease-of-use and functionality. The higher end products address the application but in a convoluted way often requiring a lengthy learning curve and forcing the user to write programs or custom macros to perform simple tasks.
AlignStar places all of the necessary functionality right at your fingertips. There is no need to navigate through multiple nested menus, "fool" the software into doing what you want, purchase expensive plug-ins or add-ons, or patch together a solution from two or more programs. AlignStar comes fully equipped with all the features that you need as well as a powerful set of intelligent tools that will evaluate your territories and make recommendations on how they can be improved.

Are there any other products like AlignStar? Well, actually yes, there are a few products that do what AlignStar does. However, AlignStar is superior in three key respects:
- AlignStar is easy to learn and use
- AlignStar contains special features and tools specific to territory design and realignment
- AlignStar includes everything you need at no additional charge (unlimited technical support, software updates, software fixes, new releases, up to 4 ZIP Code updates per year, new media anytime for any reason, user's forum, etc.)
AlignStar is the culmination of over 20 years of experience in sales territory design and optimization software. Designed by a team of people that have designed and realigned territories for hundreds of companies, AlignStar is unsurpassed in both ease of use and functionality. We recognize that the most powerful software in the world is of little or no value if it ends up collecting dust on a shelf. Why not maximize the return on your investment by getting software that you can actually use?
Some mapping software comes with ZIP Code information that is 5 years old when you take it out of the box. Then you are faced with buying an expensive update just to get current information. Updated ZIP Code boundaries can cost you $2,000 or more! Most companies also charge you extra for on-going software updates and support. AlignStar includes up to 4 updates to the ZIP Code file every year, unlimited technical support, unlimited software updates, detailed tutorials and extensive on-line documentation including video instruction on key points. There are no hidden costs. You get everything you need.
In short, AlignStar is the most powerful, easy to use, competitively priced territory design software ever created. This is the reason that it is the most popular product in it's class.
