This week has seen the rollout of ACT! for a recruitment firm in New South Wales and a distribution firm based in Tasmania.
We've also begun upgrading a national machinery company from ACT! by Sage Premium 2009 to Sage ACT! Premium 2012 who has a number of remotely sync'ing databases on field staff laptops.
Also we've setup ACT! on a virtual machine client. This was done for a couple reasons:
- So that they can change the underlying hardware at a moments notice without disrupting use of ACT!.
- So the staff member can access it from where-ever they happen to be, from what-ever device they are using.
We've also setup the newly released ACT! Premium for Web Mobile for a client. In a nutshell it's a HTML5 based web interface that allows you to get live acccess to your ACT! database from iPads and other tablets and phones.
Katrina and I have done a lot of data importing this week, we've been cleaning data and importing it into Companies, Sub-companies, Contacts, Secondary Contacts, Notes and Histories all the while making sure they all associate with the correct Contacts and Companies.
A number of clients this week also engaged in training on e-marketing, mostly around using Swiftpage with ACT! more effectively.
This weeks quick tip: Often you want to email someone the contact details of another person, so in ACT!, while on the contact detail view, press CTRL-C (Copy), then in your email you can press CTRL-V (Paste) to paste in that contacts details.
Remember, we can help get your ACT! together.
