Sage ACT! Pro 2011 is for individuals and teams of up to 10 users
that do not need additional security or scalability features.
Sage ACT! Pro 2011 helps you organize all the details of your
customer relationships in one place—from basic contact information to
detailed notes on past interactions—for a complete view of the people you do
business with.
WHY YOU SHOULD BUY
In a
weaker economy, it’s tempting to "wait it out," but consider the cost of
doing nothing. ACT! helps you grow your business by attracting new customers
and getting more from existing relationships. WHAT'S NEW FOR 2011:
MICROSOFT® OUTLOOK® SYNCHRONIZATION
Sage ACT!
manages all the details of your business relationships and Microsoft
Outlook manages emails, basic contact details, and meetings across your
team. Now you can have the best of both worlds and share your Outlook
and Sage ACT! contacts and calendar using two-way sync.
Create new
Outlook contacts from Sage ACT! and new Sage ACT! contacts from Outlook.
It doesn’t matter where your contacts were created or changed,
everything will be kept updated in both places. Plus, you have the
option to control which contacts are synced back and forth. Don’t worry
about duplicates either, because Sage ACT! will attempt to intelligently
link contacts between Outlook and Sage ACT!.
Keep your
busy schedule updated in both Outlook and Sage ACT!, no matter where you
add or modify activities and meetings. Sage ACT! will help you cut back
on meeting conflicts with rules that handle them automatically. And, you
can choose which activity types in Sage ACT! sync back to Outlook so
that your Outlook calendar remains free of your ACT! to-dos.
SMART TASKS
These Smart Tasks will set
in motion the most basic or advanced processes that allow Sage ACT! to
take care of things like reach out to customers that haven’t heard from
you in a while or notify you of any sales opportunities that have been
stalled. Smart Tasks will even contact customers that are missing key
info from their contact records with a survey that automatically plugs
that info back into Sage ACT!. And, best of all, you have total control
over the timing, contact lists, and opportunities for each Smart Task.
Apply Smart Tasks right
out-of-the-box or make changes to fit your needs. Because Smart Tasks
are built on a powerful workflow engine, you can fully customize them
with different actions using one of the easier visual designers on the
market. Set up Smart Task guidelines for your entire team so your
company’s best practices are followed.
