Stay in Touch and Connected
ACT!'s Contact Record lets you track all of your critical contact and customer communications for quick and easy referencing. With the software's e-mail client integrated with Lotus Notes or Microsoft Outlook Express, or integrated directly with Outlook, you can send outbound e-mails to contacts and create contact history on the Contact Record. ACT!'s Mail Merge feature even allows you to correspond with multiple contacts, either via e-mail or paper correspondence, and automatically tracks a history on each Contact record.
A built-in word processor that supports tables, graphics, HTML and spell checking makes it easy to write letters directly from ACT! You can select a group of contacts and perform a mail merge to a letter or e-mail. Best of all, a history is automatically generated on each contact record every time you send correspondence. With ACT! you'll never lose track of your past correspondence again.
Prioritize Your Work
ACT! can help you stay on top of your deliverables by offering multiple calendar views, including daily and customizable work week views. Calls, meetings, and to-do items can be filtered by priority, date range, or user, and you can display totals for each type of activity. Built-in activity alarms will help you stay on top of all your time-sensitive deliverables, so you'll always be ahead of the game with your contacts. If you rely on communicating with colleagues who are not using ACT!, you can also synchronize your ACT! calendar with their Microsoft Outlook calendar to facilitate appointment scheduling and tasks.
Track Sales Opportunities
ACT! enables you to track sales opportunities from the initial inquiry through the closing to utilize the standard sales process, or you can create a customized process to suit your business. When working an opportunity, simply click follow-up and a new activity will be created automatically with details, thereby ensuring the prospect is managed as it moves through the process. The product list lets you easily enter repeated products or services, and can automatically fill in information such as name, item number, cost, and price. ACT! also gives you the options of choosing from over 20 pre-formatted Sales Reports, or exporting to Microsoft Excel with a single click for further analysis using built-in, customizable pivot tables.

Customer Reviews of Act! By Sage 2007
Great Software with a little help! I've been an act user for 12 years since version 2. While the new versions are a bit resource intensive (RAM), they really fly on large look ups or advanced queries....I love these new versions, especially dynamic groups. I'll admit that I hated the first release of the new SQL version in 2005, but 2006-2008 have been solid minus a few minor issues.... 2008 is office 2007 compatible but I'm still on office 2003. <
> <
>The product seems to have evolved into a much more robust product instead of the old "personal contact manager" that was at time hard to network. They say it can handle much more data and still run fast. The new version seems much more "network friendly" as well, but it is also not so easy to install / upgrade or customize. <
> <
>My friend hightly recommeded hiring a local ACT consultant because he first had a lot of trouble installing himself and was ready to throw it out the window! As a last ditch effort, he hired a qualified ACT consultant (nerapiddata.com) and wished he had done this 3 years ago. In one day, he installed ACT on a server and 2 workstations, plus 4 remote laptops and customizations for sales stuff, plus a clean conversion of the old database! <
> <
>I hired them for my small office and he was in and out in 4 hours. They were pricy but for me, well worth the help and 10 times better than the Sage support. We now use them for questions and folow up problems and they take care of us right away, and only charge now for 15 minute blocks. <
> <
>So if you want to enjoy what I still consider the best contact manager on the planet, make sure you have plenty of RAM and don't use a PC that's already slow/old or you will hate ACT as many have mentioned. And if you can afford a consultant, you will have a lot less head aches and maybe save some hair as well!
Act 2007 Was the WORST Software Product I Ever Bought
What a mistake I made!!! Unlike past versions, ACT 2007 is an unmitigated disaster: Takes up too much memory, is extremely sluggish, crashes often, has trouble hot-synching with handheld devices, and may not recognize your passwords (meaning that you have to pay Sage Software's technical support for even more of your money to fix their own problems). After this fiasco I cannot in good conscience buy any more Sage products. Try using Amicus instead.
Carefully Read Product Specs
It is disappointing that Act! By Sage 2007 will not work will MS Office 2007. It does not work and does not have a patch to make it partially work. It apparently works with VISTA using a patch, however since it won't work with Word 2007, I didn't bother trying the Vista patch.

>I had been a loyal Act user for a very long time. This incompatability forced me to learn another program. If Act wants to remain in this segment of the market they need to react faster to the changing software needs of their customers.

>Don't buy this software if you plan to use Office 2007.
