An essential AddOn when integrating Act! for Web, Act! Cloud, or Act! Hosted with Microsoft Outlook
The Top Selling Act! add-on of all time has been updated to work through the WebAPI to access Act! Cloud databases, and has been rebranded as Act4Mail.
Yes, it's here. All the functionality of Act4outlook is now seamlessly integrated into Act! for Web.
Act4outlook no longer requires MAPI integration and includes enhanced install shield. Less reliance on the native Act-Outlook integration delivers faster and more reliable performance, and now works with both 32 & 64-bit versions of Office!
