Shares here are read over the models both editions asked, so they can differ by a point or two from the standing above, which counts every model in this edition.
The floor is 11 points of share, measured: how far the models move a leader on their own when the same questions are asked twice with nothing changed. A larger change is movement; a smaller one is noise, and both are shown. Movement is read over the twelve models both editions asked; GPT-6 Luna, Muse Glimmer 30B joined this edition and are in the standing but not yet in the comparison.

What the models said for it
Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.
“Best budget-friendly pick: Salesforce Sales Planning only if you already use Salesforce.” GPT-5.4 mini · Territory planning · budget prompt · first choice
“If you use Salesforce: Salesforce Sales Planning is a CRM-native tool for designing and managing sales targets, quotas, territories, and headcount plans” Claude Haiku 4.5 · Territory planning · direct prompt · alternative
“Choose Salesforce Sales Planning if: You want a clean, zero-integration setup that operates directly in the CRM” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Territory planning · comparative prompt · alternative
“Best Salesforce-Native Option: Salesforce Maps + Sales Planning” Qwen 3.7 Flash · Territory planning · budget prompt · alternative
And against it
Verbatim evidence attached to negative labels. A warning on a product with few labels is a warning; on a product with many, it is one voice among them.
“listed at $75 per user per month, billed annually, so it may be hard to justify on a tight budget” GPT-6 Luna · Territory planning · budget prompt · soft negative
“these tools are often far less sophisticated than dedicated SPM platforms” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Territory planning · negative prompt · soft negative
