I wouldn't be as successful without this tool

I also appreciate being able to view the entire history of interactions with each contact. What do you dislike? I get a weird error message every time I start up the program and a different one when I exit it. What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you ...

When using TASK, once a record is handled, it takes you back up to the top of the list instead of picking up where you left off....... Synchronization only happens up to the web for one user. It would be helpful (especially when one individual is using two computers that it ...

What benefits have you realized? Ability to ...

ACT has kept me on track for 20 years
