I've used this for over 20 years and it's helps me remember every contact that I've made. Now I have email folders that I need to refer to since I don't always have the time to reiterate what is in the emails into the Act! file.
Pros
It organizes my contacts and the notes updates me quickly to what's happening with that account. Documents for each customer are also at my fingertips.
Cons
It takes too long to load. I have to open it first at the beginning of my day so nothing else interferes with the time to load. (I just updated it with your customer service and it still takes longer than I'd like, FYI).
Response from Act!
Thank you for your review, Lynn! We love hearing from our longtime customers and hearing about that Act! is helping you organize your notes and contacts. And, we appreciate your feedback about the load speed. This has been forwarded to our dev team. Thank you again!

Mostly positive. Use the CRM and AMA. AMA is easy to use and the stats go into the CRM. One Stop Shop.
Pros
All in one affordable solution for a CRM with AMA.
Cons
APC does not have all the functionality of the Desktop version. Therefore we have RDB's and sync so that we have the extra functionality. Often times the ACT servers are too busy for us to sync successfully during the day. We have to wait until after hours to sync.
