Yes, a brand-new, even better version of ACT! is about to be released. With end-user feedback and improvement suggestions in hand, the folks at Sage are committed to creating and re-creating an ACT! system that will work harder and better for you. So whether you have recently upgraded or are still happily using ACT! 2005 , you'll want to take a look at our top 10 list to see which features you could be enjoying in your daily work life.
Drum roll please...
In no particular order, the top 10 reasons you should upgrade to ACT! 2011 (and why should you care) are:
10) Advanced security that prevents sensitive email history from attaching to ACT! user records. Some things are meant for your eyes only.
9) A redesigned welcome page with ACT! feature videos. Can't figure out how a new feature works, or simply need a refresher on an ACT! tool - watch a video right from your ACT! welcome screen.
8) Are you wanting to buy a new computer, or maybe you just did? ACT! 2011 is fully compatible with your new Windows 7 OS. Whew, one less thing to worry about as you set it all up..
7) Did that fast-running, new computer come with 32-bit Office 2010? You guessed it, it's completely compatible with ACT! 2011. It's looking better and better, isn't it?!
6) You can now set up a two-way sync between your ACT! database and your Outlook calendar and contacts. That's right - not just your calendar, but your contacts too!
5) Your new two-way ACT!-Outlook syncing feature is designed so you have complete control over which contacts sync. We all know how much you adore Aunt Millie, but your whole team doesn't need her contact info in their database. No offense, Aunt Millie!
4) Use Sage Business Services Info for ACT! to link your database to your Hoover's account and have access to 85 million executives and 65 million companies. Specify your ideal client criteria in Hoover's to narrow possible leads, then easily pull those contacts into your ACT! database. Think of how fast you can build a lead list with this great tool. And if you don't have a Hoover's account, you should think about getting one now!
3) Smart Tasks! Finally, there's a way to automate everyday, critical-to-success processes for yourself or your team. Set up Smart Tasks to automatically schedule a follow-up with that new lead you just met, or with a prospect who you haven't heard from in a while. Kick your customer service into high gear by having alerts that notify you of your clients' (or family) birthdays, anniversaries, etc. Aunt Millie will be so excited to get that on-time birthday card. Can't you just feel the warm fuzzies?
2) Create graphic-rich, professional marketing emails using Sage E-Marketing for ACT! tools. Then, have them send automatically with Smart Tasks. Talk about your nice marketing combo! Create it, activate it, and... nope, that's it, all done. How easy!
And the number 1 reason to inquire today about your ACT! 2011 upgrade...
1) Take advantage of the pre-sale discounted pricing! ACT! 2011 prices will never be lower than they are right now. Don't delay - ACT now (no pun intended)!
