In practical terms, what this means is that users finally have Act4outlook functionality with hosted databases and 64-bit versions of Office. In fact, users with lighter...

Act4outlook had, after all, become the #1 selling Act! add-on of all time in a few short years, so we understood the appeal, but the Act! WebAPI simply had not matured enough for us to build a feature rich version of Act4outlook to work with directly with hosted...

Over the last few weeks I've observed quite a few Act! users and consultants post questions about whether a certain add-on existed for one function or another. I wanted to remind everyone that while Keystroke.ca remains an excellent resource for our add-ons, the Act! Marketplace was relaunched in the spring of 2018, and remains the largest online...

As part of Keystroke’s commitment to developing to the Act! WebAPI, and supporting the fastest growing market of Act! users, we’ve converted a number of traditionally “Windows only” add-ons to “Cloud Compatible” applications.

Time is money. There is nothing new about this truism, but the way we manage our time would not always suggest we accept this as fact.
