Not only that, but the lines between your business and personal lives are becoming increasingly blurred. Don't think it's possible to keep it all together? It is when you use the new productivity and efficiency features in Sage ACT! 2012.

Revolutionise the way you manage your day with a convenient, virtual notepad¹ that enables you to quickly capture impromptu notes, phone numbers, and personal reminders. Prioritise and check off items once completed, print the list to take it with you, and push tasks that require further follow-up into Sage ACT!. Work seamlessly with the web-based productivity tools you already rely on, including Gmail®, Google® Contacts, and Google Calendar™. No need to check two different places for a complete view of your emails, contact details, and personal activities. All or just a subset of these details can be kept updated in Sage ACT!. Find what you need in an instant with a faster, more expansive search option that gets you to that key document or piece of info you need in your notes, history and even attachments.
