Powerful CRM with a range of features

What do you like best? Act! allows us to manage all of our customer data and is a useful tool for reviewing historic notes relating to our customers. With several departments within our business, all can access predetermined areas with specific read and write privileges. What do you dislike? Act! is quite difficult to manage and perform administrative tasks. With new employees regularly requiring access to the system, learning how to use it can be a slow task and I don't believe we ...

ACT! is great contact management software!

What do you like best? ACT! is user friendly, robust, easily handles data and manipulation and helps keep me in close contact with my client base. Have used it for years, since the training was on cassette tape, and rarely had any problems with the software or updates. What do you dislike? The e-mail interface occasionally goes down but closing and rebooting the computer have corrected it. Just inconvenient but doesn't happen often. With the change of ownership, the customer ...

Great program

Great program, especially the Pro version. use it in the office, on the phone, all over. Very simple and on site - not cloud based so no one else has your data.

Long time user over 3 companies.

What do you like best? After input of a contact, reports can be configured with numerous choices. What do you dislike? New versions can easily be confused with older versions, and new versions appear too quickly when I don't require new features. Recommendations to others considering the product: Process is tight. Be sure to pay close attention to details when installing. While I was a bit disappointed that I needed to upgrade after years of satisfaction, the upgrade went ...

Great tool for small business!

What do you like best? Act! is easy to use. Intuitive and fun even. Great calendar features and I can keep records of ALL my work with clients in ONE PLACE. What do you dislike? I can't find documents when I save them and they don't automatically attach to the client record when I print them . And the WORST THING: I can't print out my task lists. For some reason (and I have had customer support work on this) it won't print. I have to export it to Excel, edit it and print it there. ...

ACT is the perfect CRM for small businesses like mine

What do you like best? We are a small business using ACT. We like the ease of use and the way it works with our email system to record email interactions with our customers. Customization is easy to do and lets you tailor ACT to your specific business requirements. I definitely recommend ACT to any business looking to get ahead. What do you dislike? Setting everything up by yourself would be difficult. I would highly recommend hiring an ACT certified consultant to keep you ahead of ...
