Scottsdale, Arizona - Sage Software today announced the new ACT! by Sage Online Community available at http://community.act.com for over 2.8 million individually registered ACT! users, and users registered through more than 43,000 ACT! corporate customer accounts. The ACT! Online Community enables ACT! and ACT! by Sage Premium users, product developers, and Sage Software personnel to interact with each other through a variety of themed discussion forums and blogs covering best practices, product usage tips, and feature requests, among other topics.
"We have created an online community where sharing personal opinions, ideas, and information will help our customers learn more about using ACT! to grow their businesses," explained David van Toor, senior vice president and general manager for Sage CRM Solutions North America. "Through the ACT! Online Community we can encourage and more actively participate in ongoing dialogue with our customers, and believe the knowledge shared will exponentially benefit everyone for years to come."
van Toor's personal blog is featured on the ACT! Online Community, and is the first of several subject matter expert blogs planned.
"Sage is definitely taking a leadership position by implementing a community like this and I expect others to follow," noted Denis Pombriant, Beagle Research managing principal. "A community of interest or, just, ‘community' is a very effective tool that enables marketers and others to gather information about what a large group of people think, and the resulting understanding can be very powerful. Adding a community to the huge ACT! installed base should provide a great deal of usable input to Sage, and result in better products for everyone."
