ACT! 2009 From the Trenches Installation Best Practices

I put a special video together showing customers how I install ACT! 2009.  This is from experience of installing many versions of ACT! over the years, and historically has been a common issue for those experiencing issues with the software.

This video is available for free for customers who purchase ACT! from my webstore.

Customers, I’d like to hear your feedback on the video, so that I can be better equipped to meet your needs.  What has your experience been with the video?  Were you upgrading, new install, how’d it go?

Please provide your honest feedback below.  Let everyone know where you are writing from prior to your question.

ACT Platinum Care and ACT 2009 Software : Pay little, get a lot

It is really impressive to consider what Sage Software has done recently to win the loyalty of their customers and potential contact management or CRM customers.

They introduced a new program called ACT! Platinum Care which is introducing a subscription model to the ACT! software purchase. It is totally optional, and is different than how ACT! customers are used to purchasing the software.

The biggest value, is that ACT! Platinum Care customers always have the latest version of the software. This is important with all the new operating system patches being released, Sage has had to continue to develop the product to perform and satisfy customer requests, but in the process customers have got upgrade fatigue with each new annual release.

Secondarily is access to Sandler Sales Institute online broadcast portal for 1 year at no cost. This is full of continuing education for sales professionals, along with some other Sandler perks.

Third, you get access to their online members community where you can interact with other ACT! users and Business experts.

Lastly, there are exclusive benefits for members who need ACT! addon/enhancement products.

ACT! Platinum Care is a new initiative, and as such they are offering compelling pricing for folks who join before 9/30/2008. I’m also offering special bonuses to customers on my web store if you are interested.

I put together a 6min video that discusses all this, and how to claim the special pricing which ends Sept 30th. It is on the webstore, but I’ll include it here as well.


If you’d like access to the full review of the software, where I interview Dave van Toor Sage’s GM and VP of North America CRM. Have a look the Webinar LIVE-REPLAY I recently posted at http://www.WhatsNewWithACT.com If you are on the fence about the ACT! 2009 Software, this review was done with you in mind.

As always, feel free to leave your comments here on the blog.
