A Badger Maps alternative for selling to local businesses and knocking doors
Badger Maps is excellent at planning a route between account visits. FieldStacker puts the businesses on your map and runs the sale from first visit to signed proposal and monthly invoice, at a published price for small teams.
Pro $30/mo, or $25/mo billed yearly · Team $60/mo for 3 people · 14-day free trial · month to month
Every field-sales app puts pins on a map, but the jobs differ. A Badger user usually starts the day with known customers and prospects and wants the smartest drive between them, with check-ins and reporting for a manager. Badger also has lead generation from Business up, so reps can find new businesses near their route.
FieldStacker is built for the part after you find the business. You add it to your list, meet the front desk, come back for the owner, pitch, send a proposal from your own packages, and get paid at signing. FieldStacker then emails the monthly invoices and reminds you before the contract renews. For door-to-door teams, the same app runs the knock map, dispositions and the rep's own money.

Which one wins for whom
Two good tools for two different days.
Badger Maps fits when…
- You visit a known list of accounts and want the best route between them
- You plan 20+ stops a day across a wide territory
- You want a 90-day money-back guarantee for your team
- Your team already runs on another CRM and you want the map on top of it
Badger's route optimization is genuinely strong. If the drive is your problem, it is a good answer.
FieldStacker fits when…
- You prospect local businesses in person and need to find them first
- You want stages, a point of contact and a visit history on every business
- You want proposals, card payment at signing and monthly invoices in the same app
- You are a small team and want a published price with territories and a leaderboard included
- You knock doors and want your commission, mileage and 1099 taxes tracked
From the business listing to the monthly invoice
Pick 📣 Advertising / media sales at signup and the business tools are on:
- Local businesses on the map with name, category, phone and website (© Overture Maps Foundation). Listings can be out of date, so flag Closed, Moved, Wrong phone or Not a business
- Tap or long-press a business to add it to your list and set its stage
- A package catalog: monthly or one-time, term, setup fee and add-ons
- Proposals addressed "Attn: name, position", approved and paid by card at signing
- Monthly invoices emailed for the rest of the term, a Businesses list with overdue invoices, and one-tap Renew
- 🎙️ Voice notes after a visit: AI fills in the card and you check it before it saves

Texting businesses? Two-way texting is a $15/mo add-on for 600 texts (a business EIN is required). Only text a business after they agree to get texts.
A route between stops vs. a map full of doors
Route optimization assumes you already know which addresses to visit. Canvassing is the opposite: figure out which doors are worth knocking, tag what happened at each one, and never waste a step on a house a teammate already worked.
- Pull recently-sold and new-mover leads onto the map as fresh pins
- Drop a color-coded disposition on every door in one tap
- Watch the whole crew live, with GPS-verified knocks
- Track your commission, chargebacks, mileage and quarterly tax set-aside
Questions reps ask
Is FieldStacker a good Badger Maps alternative?
It depends on the job. Badger Maps is route-planning software for outside sales reps who visit a list of accounts, and its route optimization is its strength. FieldStacker fits reps who prospect in person and want the whole sale in one app: local businesses on the map, a pipeline with stages, visit check-ins, proposals, card payment at signing and monthly invoices, or, for door-to-door teams, a knock map with your own dispositions and rep financials.
How much does Badger Maps cost compared to FieldStacker?
As of October 16, 2026, Badger Maps Business is $58 per user a month billed annually or $69 monthly, and Enterprise is $95 or $109. Territories (Align), lead routing, insights and a scoreboard are add-ons. For 3 people on Business that is $174 to $207 a month. FieldStacker Team is $60/mo for you plus 2 seats ($20 a person), with the live team map, territories and lead assignment included. Pro for one rep is $30/mo, or $25/mo billed yearly.
How many business leads can I see on the map?
Badger's pricing page says up to 20 new leads are viewable on the map at a time on Personal and Business, and up to 60 on Enterprise. FieldStacker shows up to 300 local businesses in the area you are looking at, with no per-lookup charge; zoom in to see more. FieldStacker's listings come from public map data, so some phone numbers, websites or businesses will be out of date, and you can flag those.
Does FieldStacker optimize routes like Badger?
Not to the same depth. FieldStacker has a route planner for your stops, but Badger Maps is built around route optimization for a day of account visits. If your day is 20 or more scheduled stops across a wide territory, Badger is the stronger tool for the drive itself.
Can FieldStacker send proposals and invoices to businesses?
Yes. Build a proposal from your own package catalog, addressed to your contact by name and position. The business approves it online and pays the amount due at signing by card, then FieldStacker creates and emails each monthly invoice for the rest of the term. The business pays each invoice; nothing is charged automatically. Badger's pricing page does not list proposals or invoicing.
Does either one work for door-to-door canvassing?
FieldStacker started there: a fresh-lead knock map, color-coded dispositions, drawn territories, GPS-verified team knocks, a leaderboard and the rep's own commission, mileage and 1099 tax set-aside. Badger is built for account visits rather than canvassing neighborhoods, so check their site for what it offers door-to-door teams.
Is there a free trial?
FieldStacker has a 14-day free trial on every plan with no credit card, and it is month to month. Badger's pricing page lists a 14-day trial for individuals, team pilots, and a 90-day money-back guarantee for teams of 2 or more.
