iPhone 3G is it Worth the Upgrade?

Well, it’s here. The new iPhone. It seems Mr. Jobs and the folks at Apple have done it again. They’ve got many whipped up in a frenzy for this new device which is tagged as “Twice as Fast. Half the Price.” Clever marketing, and based on the video I watched from their World Wide Developers Conference a few weeks back, it certainly seems impressive, and I do think the upgrade is warranted on it’s own, beyond that third parties are making it even more compelling. Read on…

Update: Sage Insights Conference, ACT Software User Questions for Sage Executives


As per the video, the comments on last weeks blog post were numerous…and very educational. I’ve summarized them but want to make sure I’m not missing anything.

Obviously I cannot discuss all the questions that came in, some of which I’ve already answered, so I plan to have a conversation in categories of interest derived from
the post comments.

So if there is anything missing from these items. Please post your questions in the comments section below.

Discussion Points:
> User Interface Items (Calendar, and Sync)
> Handheld Sync
> Email (Outlook and ACT! Email)
> Web 2.0 and Social Networking
> Poor Market Perception
> Integration (accounting, faxing, exchange)

Am I missing anything? The way for you to be heard, and for me to make the most of my time with Sage Executives, is to submit your comments and questions below…do it now as time is running out (interview should happen in the next day or so).

Also, if you haven’t done so, feel free to subscribe to the RSS feed of this blog, but clicking the subscribe buttons to the right.

Considering an ACT Software Upgrade?…2 Must Ask Questions

People say they learn a lot from me, truth is I learn from customers and subscribers all the time. Yesterday I talked with a customer who articulated something I think might benefit others. It was pertaining to the idea of upgrading his ACT software after receiving an upgrade notice from Sage Software, he said, “I got some critical enhancement products as a part of my ACT install, I know how it all works and interconnects with my business process, as a result I’m cautious about installing a soon to be released upgrade.”

The truth is, he has quite unique combination of ACT Addon installed on his computer…each with a critical business purpose, allowing him to focus on what brings in revenue, selling. However, it does bring up a very fair question.

Should I upgrade?

For 2008 and beyond, with any software, the question people are asking…Should I upgrade?

Here are some questions ACT users must ask before answering the upgrade question. Take time to write out the answers to these questions, and be as specific as possible.
