Hosted ACT! for Web (Or, Act! for Web Made Easy)
We all know that Sage ACT! is the top-selling contact management and entry-level CRM software in the world. It is used by millions of people to manage their working day and their customer reationships.
Nearly all of these people have ACT! installed on their computers.
Which is fine.
What's less well known is that there's another way to get all the benefits of ACT! without having to install any software at all, ACT! for Web.
Now ACT! for Web has been around for many years now. Infact, the very first job I did as an ACT! consultant was an ACT! for Web (Version 6) installation fo a labelling company north of Manchester.
Traditionally, the client sets up their own web server, and we then install ACT for Web on that server. The people using ACT! then access the system via a web browser (e.g. Internet Explorer).
The benefits are:
There's no software to install and maintain on the clients' computers.
Upgrades and maintenence are therefore much easier.
There are no hardware issues; providing you have IE8 or 9 it just works.
No software means no drain on you PCs' resources so your computer runs faster.
You can work from anywhere you have an internet connection; no LANs, WANs or VPNs to worry about.
However, if the concept of setting up and maintaining a Web Server makes you shudder, there is now an easier way; Hosted ACT for Web.
We have partnered with a UK datacentre who do all the techie stuff. You just pay a monthly charge and you are up an running with you very own secure ACT! for Web database that you can access through your web browser.
And it's fast. You could be up and running in just a day or two.
The basic system gives you up to five ACT! users, but you can have as many as you want (up to 100). Each user has their own unique User Name and Password so thay access is secure.
The system is ideal for sales teams who work from home on on the road.
Back-ups, Windows updates and ACT updates are all taken care of, and we can also help with the initial configuration of your database and importing any existing data you may have. We can also provide an on-site ACT training day to get you off to a flying start.
