ACT! on the RunThere are more tablet computers sold than traditional PC's. As a result, time management coupled with convenient access to information will determine productivity, and hence, profits.
Good News! ACT! is in the mobile platform game. There are several mobile platforms to choose from, each a little different. User preference and business need need will drive the process. |
Handheld ContactHandheld Contact is flexible enough for installation on a variety of devices and operating systems including the iPhone, Ipad, Android, Windows Mobile and Blackberry. The application is installed locally and runs on the device. Thus, the app is available on-line or off-line freeing users to manipulate contacts, notes, e-mail and the calendar any place or any time.
The application incorporates the use of a Cloud computer to manage the exchange of information between the device and the ACT! Database Server. Think of the Could computer as a gate keeper. Information residing on your device is sent to the Cloud Computer. The Cloud Computer passes the information to the computer hosting ACT! The reciprocal holds true. Information from the host computer is sent to the Cloud and is forwarded to the mobile device. The exchange of information - or synchronization - works behind scene and happens at predefined intervals. |
ACT! Premium MobileUnlike Handheld Contact, ACT! Premium Mobile is accessed through an Internet Browser like Windows Internet Explorer. It is not installed on the device. The tool actually reads live data residing on a Windows IIS Web Server. Here's the kicker... The software is built into the premium version of ACT! There is no extra cost!!! Because the application is accessed through a web browser, it is not device specific. As long as the device is connected Internet, users can manipulate contacts, notes, histories, the calendar, opportunities, groups and companies.
