ACT™ 6.0 For 2004 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Wow, take a program that had some decent features and screw it up. If you don't compress and reindex MINIMUM once a day this thing actually loses info as you type it in! We have close to 7,000 contacts. I called regarding the losing of info and was advised "the program wasn't designed for holding that many contacts". Hello! It's a contact database! If this isn't designed for holding thousands of contacts what are they doing selling it as a contact database? We use it because we must as we use ACT on a daily basis and can't go without it at all. We put all our (abbreviated) conversations in the notes section so it's vital to our business. But, if another product comes along that will make the transition smooth, fast and easy we'll go for it. Or if those ever-changing software manufacturers of ACT get it together and make a version that can actually hold and KEEP info we'll go with that but so far that hasn't happened. My recommendation? Use Outlook.

ACT Link 2.0 for Use with QuickBooks Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I'm an ACT! Certified Consultant and a QuickBooks Professional Advisor. This was a heavily requested product!
Lots of business people use both ACT! and QuickBooks, and it's a drain on their time to type a name & address into one product, then retype it again into the other product.
Installation is a snap. Then you have to go into QuickBooks/Preferences to tell it that another program can access it. Within ACT!, a tab is automatically added for QuickBooks information. You run ACT! first then start up QuickBooks and voila!
One caveat is that you can only move one contact at a time. One client said, 'no big deal' and moved 200 customers from ACT! to QuickBooks. It truly was no big deal because the link actually works. Previous links which claimed to move all the data did not work.

Another caveat was discovered by a client who uses QuickBooks Enterprise, a corporate product. This link will not recognize the Enterprise user privledges.
This is a great solution. I use it almost daily for my own business and clients love it too.
