Google has today announced that paying users of its Maps Engine Pro custom mapping service can now access its Google Maps Coordinate workforce management and productivity tools at no additional cost.
The Coordinate mobile and Web app is designed to allow teams to easily share locations and assign jobs in real-time by using data visualizations on maps.
As well as including Maps Coordinate with Engine Pro subscriptions, priced at $5 per user per month, Google has opened up the Coordinate app to anyone with a Google account, meaning it’s no longer only available to Google Apps customers, thereby massively expanding its potential user base.
