Sage ACT! 2012 delivers new productivity features that keep you on task so you can finally rid yourself of sticky notes and hand-written to-dos. It also includes options to work seamlessly with applications you already rely on, like Gmail™ and usability improvements to features you use most often.

 Why should you upgrade to Sage ACT! 2012?

·        Trade your sticky notes and hand-written to-dos for a convenient, virtual notepad.

Forget about conventional paper-and-pen lists that fail to keep you on task. Revolutionise the way you manage your day with Sage ACT! Scratchpad, a convenient, virtual notepad where you can quickly capture impromptu notes, phone numbers, and personal reminders, with or without opening Sage ACT!. But that’s not the best part. Prioritise and check off items once completed, print the list to take it with you, or push updates into Sage ACT! with just a few clicks. Send them to Sage ACT! as activities, notes, and history, even assign them to contacts.

Let’s say you’re working on a proposal for Chris Huffman, but the phone rings, so you get distracted. You quickly jot down a reminder in Sage ACT! Scratchpad. When you have time at the end of your day, you push that activity into Sage ACT! on Chris Huffman’s contact and set an alarm to go off first thing the next morning. Finally, you can rid yourself of the sticky notes and legal pads that have been cluttering your desk for years and actually get through your to-dos!

Sage ACT! is the one place where you manage all the details of your business relationships, but you may also be using Gmail™, Google® Contacts, and Google Calendar™ to manage additional business and personal details. You don’t have to check two different places or manage two different calendars for a complete view of your business and personal lives. Keep all or just a subset of your emails, contacts, and activities updated in both places when you sync Sage ACT! with Google. When an email is sent and/or received in Gmail, that history will be recorded in Sage ACT! on the corresponding contact. If you’re working in Google, you can see your Sage ACT! contacts or if you’re working in Sage ACT!, view your Google contacts. Even clear activities once completed from either application. No need to stop the flow of where or how you work.  

 Gmail Feature Snapshot:

•       Send and receive emails from Gmail™ and Sage ACT! will keep a history of those emails for a complete view of your communications with that contact.
•       Specify one of three default history types to record emails, including subject line, subject line and message, and email attachment.

Google Contacts and Calendar Feature Snapshot:

•       Sync all or just a subset of your Sage ACT! contacts with Google®.
•       Sync your Sage ACT! and Google calendars manually or automatically using pre-programmed intervals.
•       Select if you want Sage ACT! or Google to “win” for conflict resolution when both calendars have been changed.
•       Choose which Sage ACT! activity types sync to Google and then clear activities from either application.
•      Specify if you want alarms displayed in Google, Sage ACT!, or both so you can be reminded in theplace you work most often.
