 A great experience September 28, 2007

I have recently upgrade to ACT 2008 and am impressed that it is even faster than ACT 2007. As a user of all versions going back to ACT 2000, this is by far the best. I love the new Dashboard feature. It helps me to be able to create a different dashboard for the various tasks/processes I use on a daily basis. I love the ease of creating and using queries. In our firm we send email blasts and postcard blasts to hundreds of clients at a time - and we are able to easilyb target our messages to different audiences. I recently upgraded to Office 2007 - and am glad that ACT integrates nicely. As a business owner, my entire company runs on ACT and Quickbooks. Both products are necessary to my business and provide the reports I need in order to measure and manage my staff. Probably the coolest thing is that my new hires are able to get up and running after a 2 hour introduction!

We recently upgraded to ACT! 2008 Premium for our firm. With staff in multiple states, the automatic synchronization feature makes it easier for us to stay connected.
As a manager, the dashboard has really helped me to see where our sales are, and which sales person needs to step it up a bit.
One warning, though, we had one old computer that needed to be upgraded before it could be installed.

Love it, version 2008 is my favorite so far, and I have been running my business with ACT! since version 4.0 (6 versions ago).
You need 1 GIG of RAm on your PC to be happy with the performance though, most newer computers have this these days.

Great catch by the previous reviewer. If you check "all my reviews" by the glowing reviewers below, you'll see that several of them reviewed other Act versions--even different years--all on the same day. Probably best to try before you buy this one.

I've used ACT since 1998 (v 3) and have relied on it for my business since then. I was disappointed in the ACT2005 upgrade (it was very slow)--even though it had a bunch of new features. But we upgraded through 2006, 2007 and now 2008 and see the product is much more stable as well as the performance is as good as ever (just like back in the day!) The new dashboard feature (that you can open right up to) is what makes this version worth upgrading to. It organizes my day/business and helps me to see everything I need at one glance. Our team has 12 people--and we hammer our database everyday (histories, notes, activities, opportunities) and it's been the only way we keep up with and know what we're doing (as a fast growing company). We honestly could not function without it. And we have network users, synchronized remote users and even a couple of ACT for Web users--we've seen only a couple issues come up that we've been able to fix quickly. We evaluated other CRM packages--MS CRM, [...], sugar crm--and ACT was the best value. ACT (with some easy customization) totally gives us everything we need and the price is much much less than the other CRM packages out there. My opinion--it's the best value package out there.
