Planet Technologies has announced Maps for CRM 2011, a new add-on that extends functionality of Microsoft’s (Nasdaq: MSFT) Dynamics CRM 2011. As noted in

“‘Say a power company is experiencing a lot of outages. Customers can call in and give specific reasons — a tree is down or there is just a general outage. The utility can then track that on the map, hopefully giving it better insight into what its customers are experiencing and why.’

“When Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT) began demoing early betas of its newest CRM iteration, Dynamics CRM 2011, it used map-based examples to show off the functionality.
