It's a Flash-based Web service that businesses can use to visualize geographic and temporal trends in their QuickBooks customer data.
Customer Explorer creates interactive heat maps leveraging MapQuest's street and satellite imagery and your customer data. This interactive map allows businesses to see balances, job statuses and even perform drill down views of clients.
The Price is Right: Free. For a limited time, this application is free for up to 100 users.

Notes: Internet access required. Customer Explorer from SpatialKey reads customer data from QuickBooks. It sends address information to a third party geocoding service so that information can be displayed on a map and reported geographically. Customer Explorer does not write any information back to QuickBooks, nor does it persist any of your personal data. Screenshot courtesy of SpatialKey.
