Pocket PC users now have access to critical ACT!
contact data either remotely or in the office
ACT! Link for Pocket PC, which enables ACT!
users to synchronize their critical contact data to their Pocket
PC device. ACT! data is synchronized with Pocket Outlook so users
always have access to their contacts, calendars, to-do items, and
notes and histories on each contact record when they are away from
their desk or out of the office.
ACT! users have always understood
the benefits of data integration at the contact level, allowing
them to see entire contact histories from a single view," said Greg
Head, ACT! general manager. "Now our Pocket PC users receive all
the benefits of ACT's award-winning contact management program on
their favorite Pocket PC device without having to settle for PIM
(personal information manager) functionality that produces separate
islands of contact information.
ACT! Link for Pocket PC integrates seamlessly with ACT!
6.0. Users can choose to synchronize all of their contact records
or only select groups of contacts. Users with multiple ACT! databases
can change which database is synchronized to their Pocket PC at
any time. ACT! Link for Pocket PC works on all Pocket PC devices
including Compaq iPAQ, HP Jornada, Dell Axim,
Toshiba
Pocket PC, and Casio Cassiopeia.
"ACT! Link for Pocket PC has eliminated all those sticky notes
and printed phone lists I used to need when I was out of the office.
Now, when I am offsite, I can look-up recent activities and notes
on a particular contact record prior to meeting with them,
said John Davenport, president and CEO, United Paneling, Plywood
& Lumber. I can enter notes directly into my Pocket PC
and sync when I return to the office so both my computer and my
PDA always have the most up-to-date information."
ACT! Link for Pocket PC users can:
- Synchronize over 30 pre-defined contact fields and up to 20
ACT! notes and history items for each contact with the ability
to choose which history types to synchronize.
- Create new contacts on the device or in ACT! and have those
automatically added to ACT! or Pocket Outlook during the next
synchronization.
- Create and edit contact details, activities, or notes and histories
in both ACT! and on the device and the changes will update in
both systems during next synchronization.
- View daily, weekly, and monthly calendars in Pocket Outlook
displaying ACT! timed activities including calls, meetings, and
to-do items with the ability to view all activities by type.
- View a list of daily activities and with one tap view such details
as the contact/company/phone number for whom the activity is scheduled.
- Receive ACT! alarms for calls, meetings, and to-dos.
- Manage tasks easily with the ability to complete a task on the
device and have it cleared in ACT!; sort by completed, priority,
and due date just like with ACT!; and mark a task as private on
the device and it will be marked private in ACT!.
"ACT! Link for Pocket PC was exactly what I was looking for. With

sales & marketing director, IC Business Group, Inc. Having
