Over it’s 20+ years of existence, ACT! has not made major user interface changes very often. From time to time they do make changes and make it easier for users to get started or navigate the program. ACT! 2010 has more changes than any version since ACT! 2005. (more…)

ACT! by Sage 2010 Has a New Modern Look and Feel
ACT! 2010 Available for Purchase – What's New & How to Get it Free
It’s true, another version of the ACT! database software is upon us. It seems like just a few months ago the ACT! 2009 Contact Management software released. The truth is, Sage is backing up their talk of continually improving the product with action, by coming out with another release. ACT! 2010 features and product input have come from their online community of users, some of whom have participated in the beta program. I’m currently reviewing the product in detail, and wanted to give you the skinny on the latest release from Sage, and how you can get it for free when it ships in September. (more…)
ACT! Software is 2009 the best version yet?
Is ACT! 2009 (v11) the best version Sage has released to date? It’s still early, and customers will ultimately decide this, but if my own sales data is any indication, it could very well be.
At the current rate, sales revenue at www.ACTasap.net will out pace last year by 71%. I find that interesting, especially in a down economy. Small businesses are scrutinizing purchases more than ever (and rightfully so, especially with recent collapse of financial markets).
When asking customers for the #1 reason they decided to purchase the ACT! database software from me, getting in on the promo, and nabbing my 4 special bonuses here are some of the responses:
“Excellent value.” -Larry. Teaneck, NJ USA
“Excellent website that has allowed me to read reviews and learn what I need to make a purchase decision. I have seen cheaper but I think that I can get more “value” buying from you. Thanks”
-Eric. Logan, UT USA
“I have enjoyed your webinars and other info for quite some time now and feel this is a good way to thank you.
-Matt. Pine Lake, GA USA

Upgrading:
Q: “I have ACT! version 5/2000 what will it cost me to upgrade to ACT! 2009 vs. someone who is upgrading from, say, ACT! 2006?” - Anonymous
A: The price is the same for you and everyone who wants the latest version. There is one price for the upgrade, regardless of what you are upgrading from. This makes is easier for everyone. Ready to buy? Go here.
Tip: Many customers are using the current promotion to upgrade to Corporate Edition, because it now includes both ACT! for Windows, and ACT! for Web versions, at a very compelling price.
Q: “I’ve been an ACT user for years…After a couple of bad experiences installing later versions – including 10.0, I’d pretty much written off ACT. But I haven’t found anything that suits be better, so I thought I’d look again. What I was looking for from Sage was some acknowledgement of the problems over the past few years and a commitment to improve. I didn’t get that, so I’m still suspicious. Sage has blown their good graces with long-time customers. Thoughts?” -Mike Pritchard Kirkland, WA (more…)
