WOW! Can't believe all the negative reviews

This is a huge improvement over every previous version. I've used several versions of ACT back to 3.0. The most recent version I used was 2000. It has always been a somewhat buggy regardless of what version but overall has worked well.THE UPSIDES- Company!!! - Finally ACT allows you to create a company and assocate multiple contacts with it. Before if you had 50 contacts for the same company they were all individual contacts. Now you can get a rolled-up snapshot of a company and all of the contact...

Waste of time

I spent 2 weeks trying to make ACT2005 work.It has numerous problems, multiple malfunctions in multiple features,won't synch with handheld, and runs very SLOW. Tech support told me there was something wrong with my computer,however the computer ran fine before I installed ACT2005 and runs fine now that ACT2005 has been uninstalled. Total waste of my time and money....

ZERO stars

Zero stars isn't an option but it should be.After hours getting the *%%^#@@*& program to install, I went to convert my old data bases.Only to discover that only the most basic fields would convert without major consternation.Since I had completely customized my previous ACT I went looking for help - which by the way was no where to be found in ACT's new user guide which I spent extra $$ for.When I read all of the challenges here I have decided to go back to my 6.0 ACT version.Thanks for saving me...

Don't waste your money on this product.

I had been a long time user of ACT since '99. Back when it was a Symantic product.I Bought Act! 2000 and had used it up until a few weeks ago.It did everything I needed it to, so I never needed to upgrade.That is until we upgraded to MS Office 2003 and the word processor stopped working with the mail merge.I wish I had read these reviews before I bought ACT! 8.It took a month for them to ship it to me.It took 3 days & numerous tries to install it, and it still doesn't run right.It's so slow It's...
